Hello,
We had a great day today. There was a wedding of a friend of mine named Joshua. He is a pilot. Then we also spent time with the youths at the Chagaik Arboretum. We really had a great day; a full day. One of encouragement and love for each other.
We had a small distraction of rain but all ended fine. The cake was interesting with a picture of a plane on it. What a great surprise from Joshua. Though of course I am happy for my friend, I miss spending time with him even now.
Otherwise I wish him and his wife a happy family.
Enjoy the pics.
We had a great visit to the widows in Kericho, Kenya. We shared with them foodstuffs and LOVE. It was the greatest time ever. I really loved it.
We also visited with orphan children. This was the greatest time of our trip. The orphans are in great need. Please pray for them as they have not enough food, and lack shoes and sporting clothes, etc.
Enjoy the pictures of our visit and please do leave a comment. I'd love to hear from you.
Hello,
We visited Momul Tea Factory. We enjoyed ourselves and we really learned a lot.
We found out that tea quality is a huge issue and so testing of the tea is important.
Momul Tea Factory has won many awards for it's high quality tea: The Green Alliance and the ISO certification. See here for more information

We really enjoyed our tea experience. One fact that really stood out for us was learning that Kenya exports 95% of all the tea we produce and only 5% is what we consume.
Enjoy
We had a great time with the widows of Ainamoi today.
They go through a multiplicity of problems associated with widowhood and they were able to share their stories with us.
Please continue to pray for their needs, which are of course are many. Pray that their kids are able to go to high school, and can proceed to go to college.
It is our prayer that all these kids are able to move forth and continue with life.
We had also a chance to visit Gatherine's house (see the last two photos) who was desperately in need. One of her sons is sick, and has dropped out of school.
Continue to pray for all these women and the challenges they face.
God Bless
Hello,
We had a great service here in Kericho, Kenya.
We witnessed many new people coming to know Christ and the church had good attendance.
Please continue to pray for church growth in this area and for men to know Christ more.
After the service, we visited a family who had a good lawn and a great house. The host of the house was very welcoming to the guests who go to this church often.
The owner of the house also has a farm and so we had a great visit to his farm and saw the cattle, bananas and tea. It was so much fun.
Enjoy the pictures
God bless,
Hello
We had a great time yesterday with visits to two schools.
All these schools are so good that a child would want to stay there forever.
We had to walk almost a mile to reach one of the primary schools. It was quite a challenge, as the road is not passable.
We took our lunch on the road ...near the school, and it was so much fun.
Otherwise enjoy the pictures, continue to pray for the needs here..especially the SHOES for the dear ones here.
God bless
Hello,
I have friends from the United States who are visiting Africa for the first time (two of them), and we are visiting orphanages and schools.
One of the biggest challenge so far is the issue of shoes. Most of the students in the schools we are visiting have no shoes, and have never seen a computer. This really puzzles me. We are still far away from getting into the 21st century here in Kenya.
Any one reading this, please pray about this great needs: SHOES SHOES
Have a great day.
God bless
Hello,
This morning we travelled to a place very near to Bomet to do a sports crusade.
We had earlier prepared for soccer balls (courtesy of our friend from Uganda) and trophies from far and wide.
We planned the event for about 2 months and we are glad to see a big, big success in this project.
Tonight we are having a 'cinema' and tomorrow morning we will have church. Then later in the afternoon, we will have the finals of the soccer team and volleyball games.
This event drew many young people who would rather have been spending their weekends in not so productive ways if we did not host a sports event. This ministry drew close to a thousand young people who turned up. What a blessing!
Continue to pray for us as we expect miracles; especially salvation to those who are not already saved.
God bless
