 Jambo Friends

Today I went to the village to teach women and girls about hygiene health.  More women came then we expected. They listened with great interest and ask many good questions.
I know this family for many years. It was a joy to see them.

Life Skills


Dear Friends
Sharing with young girls is an incredible experience. We had so much fun together. After the class girls came up to thank us and spontaneously broke into a "Thank You Song". Its easy to fall in love with the student.
The girls walked with us to the car and didn't really want us to leave.

 
Tina taught about the influence of advertisement and media

Teaching Life Skills












What a joy to have 40 + young men listening intently to the lessons about friendship, dating, peer pressure and other related topics. The interaction in the class room was really meaningful. We were bombarded with relevant questions and curious questions.You should have been a fly on the wall to see the excitement in the guys eyes. God gave us freedom to address some of the most basic question everyone has.

New Life Academy

A glimpse into the singing and dancing

New Life Academy


Village School
 Today Tina and I went to the village school. About 100 students crowed into a very small building. But that doesn't hamper the joy, laughter and singing.

When we first arrived with both were greeted with such enthusiasm that we almost fell down.

Its a privilege to share with the children books, songs and the love of God.

The children all gathered in the hallway, sat on the floor and listened intensely

 Today is Sunday and I went to share with the girls in the vocational school. It's a joy to share with them the word of God.

 In the afternoon we did some team building fun exercises. You can see the girls had a great time.

Jane is the director of the school and is becoming a good friend.

Kenya

Dear Friends
You know you are in Kenya when this is your room mate. 

This one below dropped uninvited into my coffee mug. No, I didn't drink the coffee, ...

It's good to be back. I met already many friends and we had plenty of time to connect again.

Harvest Time in Germany

 Dear Friends

Its harvest time in Germany and the vineyards produced plentiful fruit.

The white grape is "Riesling" Germany's best known wines are made of it. 

The blue grape is "Trollinger". They are delicious and make an excellent wine as well.


 I enjoy my walks through the vineyard and take in all the richness and beauty of the area.
