My babies

  At this tribe God blessed my life more than I could have every imagined… He allowed to me love on some babies and teach at a preschool. But you see this preschool was not a preschool that you would want to drop your child off at for the day…. You see these kids walked miles and miles just to get to school and on empty tummies…. They would show up and get to write on concrete walls and they had to share the same 3 pencils that were shorter than a crayon… They had no colors, no posters, no paper, just the volunteer teacher… My babies, all 40 of...

Learning and Seeing More and More Everyday

2 weeks with the Massiah 2 weeks with the Kikuyu 2 weeks with the Pokot As we just passed midpoint in our trip we have lived with three different Kenyan tribes totalling a time of six weeks. Our ministry has consisted of door to door evangalism, school visits, and teaching. My team and I have seen many people accept Christ and have also been mocked by nonbelievers. God has been doing amazing work in and through us. We have met people who have never heard of Jesus before… its funny beacuse when you tell them its like something clicks, like it all finally makes sense. So the two weeks...

What Are You Doing Tomorrow?

1 month ago I stepped off the airplane into the unknown of this 3 month journey in Kenya. I had a vague idea of the ministry we would be doing, but had no idea that we would be visiting 3 different tribes in a course of 6 weeks. Over the past few days I've definitely learned not to make any plans. They say to expect the unexpected, but I say don't expect anything at all. And if you don't expect anything, you'll always be pleasantly surprised. The Lord has filled me with an unexplainable joy and I've yet to be let down. It's true that sometimes we have no idea where...
