my sweetie doesn't have internet so I am being the sweetest boyfriend ever!

Tenwek Hospital has been a great experience for all of us. We have painted, walked with the chaplains, worked with the community health clinic, organized, babysat and prayed and loved on those who are sick. It is easy to say that each one of us has learned a great deal during our experience here. Each of us has our favorite moments and we look forward to sharing them with you when we return. dlkfgssjgfdskjgs (sorry i was chasing a mosquito). Turns out that malaria mosquitos don't make the buzzing noises like the regular ones, thats a piece of wisdom for you. On Friday Katy, Allison, Sarah and Melissa experienced a lot of things in the wards with the chaplains where they prayed for the sick and hurting and shared the strength they have in Christ. The others of us went to the community health clinic and all of us (Andy, Austin, Cheri and I) gave pregnant woman exams. I can now figure out where the head is. . . . yea I think Austin enjoyed it the most (jk). Cheri and I had a great experience today working with the chaplains and praise God we had 6 people come to Christ. Well that doesn't include the "Chapel" waiting room in which I preached the gospel and people raised there hands. . . . Swahili isn't exactly the easiest language to pick up so I am not exactly sure what happened there but I will tell you what I know that Christ was moving through that place. We have witnessed a great deal of pain and as such we ask you to partner with us in prayer for the people here and for us as we leave these people who are still hurting.

Tomorrow we will be heading to Masi-Mara and experiencing the beautiful wildlife that Christ has created. We are all excited and hope to see all kinds of animals.

After that we head to Nairobi and we are going to work at an orphanage and then go to the market to get goodies for all of our friends back home.
So we will be heading home on Friday so please pray for safe travels for all of us and that we would be able to take these experiences home with us and that they would change us for the rest of our lives.

Thank you for your prayers!
Many blessings

  1. Sarah - how many babies are you smuggling home?
    Givie wants a sister, Ben wants a brother, I'll take anything.....maybe a leopard cub to keep the rest of them in line?

    Praying for glory in goodbyes and safe travels home.

    I love you,
