Today we have spent the day getting ready for our long travels home. There are many mixed emotions, but all of us would say that we are ready. Our time in Kenya has been filled with adventure, wonderful learning opportunities, new found friendships, and continue recognition of God's faithfulness. Here are some of our favorite trip highlights:
-getting attacked by a swarm of biting fire ants while our entire team was crammed in a van.
-watching countless deliveries in a Kenyan labor and delivery unit
-getting stuck in the mud and having to get out of our safari jeep in the middle of the wild.
-being encouraged by so many hardworking and dedicated staff members at all the places we visited
-trying to buy things at the Masai market while getting pulled in every direction
-feeling humbled by watching so many people follow God's call in their life which many times results in many orphans getting taken care of.
-all the many hours we spent in the van with Francis, our driver.
-being able to worship Christ with Kenyans in various church services
-seeing the different ways that Americans were coming together to serve Christ with Kenyans
-getting to see Tenwek Hospital
-being able to serve the mothers of special needs children at Heshima by painting their nails.
We just want to thank all of you for your continued prayers and support as we embarked on this journey. Please keep your eyes peeled for the countless pictures that will be posted on facebook within the next few weeks. Please continue to pray for all the places we have mentioned and their ministries and also for safe travels as we all take different flights home. Pray that we will be able to effectively share all that God has done in our hearts while in Kenya. Pray that we can process well and that God will show us how we can continue to serve Him here in Kenya in unique ways. Thanks again and God bless!
