Here are a slew of videos from Mike and Team Kenya. They had some sloppy internet so they asked me to post these four videos for them. To all friends, family, and supporters, your participants are doing very well and know that you have every reason to be proud of the men and women they are becoming. We left Kenya very encouraged!
