To Pat....and all who may be wondering....we are all well. Other than some jet lag and the tiredness that comes from the heat and the physical and emotional energy we give each day we have not had trouble with sickness. For that we are all thankful!
We had dinner at the Hornes last night. They always invite the church staff from the centers we support and from Crossroads Fellowship. Crossroads is the English speaking church Jim Horne pastors in Mombasa. Bobby Bechtel serves in that church as well. Also attending were several of their church members.
It was a delight to share some Kenyan food and get to know these brothers and sisters in Christ. They come from all walks of life and all share a common faith in God.
It is now Saturday morning. We will attend a baptism in the ocean this morning before leaving for Vipingo. Today is the outreach. The weather looks good and we are hoping for that to hold. There are many outside activities. The featured activity is a big soccer tourney, but there will be face painting, acrobats, a choir contest, play time provided by our team with the fun supplies we brought and a meal for all who attend. We're hoping that more than 2000 people will attend.
Thank you all for praying for us! We are missing home and loved ones, but so thankful for the opportunities we have been given!

Thanks, Denise, for the health report. Dinner at the Hornes is very special. I loved that part of the trip....different night than last year, which was Sunday night. What will you now do on Sunday nidht? So, someone got baptized. Who was the blessed soul that did that? Are you going scuba diving this time? Just wondering....
