Hiking to the waterfalls on our day off outside Kijabe   Little rascals at the local elementary school. I teach the 4th graders pretty much anything(usually Bibles stories) every other monday. Typical home in the valley with the Maasai Tribe. There can be anywhere from 2 to 10 people living here.   This is a school we visited while staying with the Maasai. There were 300+ kids crammed into this one room. After singing and speaking to them, we played volleyball, soccer, handball, basketball, and many other sports.   Some of the same Kids from the school...

  “The spirit of the Lord God is upon me; because the Lord has anointed me to preach good news to the poor, he has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound.” Isaiah 61:1 We have seen this verse come to life, and this was definitely the case today with my group of five while visiting the Turkana tribe. Holli, Logan, Liz, our translator, Simon, and I have been together the past few weeks on Tuesdays when we visit the Turkana people. We visit houses and just talk with people there. We...

  Ephesians 5:1-2 “Be imitators of God, therefore, as dearly loved children and live a life of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.” Every Wednesday my team and I visit the Kijabe hospital to minister and encourage patients in various wards. Last Wednesday, I had the privilege to meet a young mother, Miriam, and her son Erick. Erick has been experiencing stomach problems since he was nine months old, and since then, he has been in and out of hospitals visiting with various doctors trying to determine the cause...

This past Friday we had a day off and of course we didn’t want to spend it resting so we decided that we would go climb a mountain to see water falls. There is good news and there is bad news. The good news is everybodys safe even though we had some crazy situations. The bad news is that we didn’t make to the water falls but we did make it to the top of the mountain. I don’t doubt that we will try it again and next time we will get there. Here are some pictures of the journey. It was alot of team building when we weren’t even realizing it.     ...

 Jenna Johnson and I have been working with the Somalians every Wednesday and Thursdays in the hospital. They are Muslims who come from a country who has been in war for the last 20 years. Many travel with absolutely nothing, we even met a lady who travelled 12 days just to treat her baby son and has no identification whatsoever besides now the hospital bill. The language is hard, and the difference in beliefs is even harder. It truly has to be the work of the Spirit in us to do anything and I personally have been struggling with expressing an overwhelming amount of love on these...

Another Tuesday spent ministering to the people of the Turkana Tribe and God is moving through us more than ever! Logan, Liz, Kelli, and myself were a team for the day. We were joined by Simon who translated for us. We started the day off by diving into what the Lord had prepaired and headed straight for the middle of town. The day was amazing! God blew the five of us away! Words cannot even begin to describe what God showed us and how the Holy Spirit moved, but I’ll give it a try: The five of us walked into a small area where four women lived with their families. We approached...
