I apologize to any of you who keep up with my blog and my
adventures for my lack of communication about what has been going on in my
journey for the past few weeks. I also want to extend a huge THANK YOU to all
of you beautiful people who decided my stove project was a worthy cause and
felt led to donate. We are now over my goal of $2000 and I pray that we will be
seeing pictures of the new stove soon. We have yet to purchase it due to a few
setbacks, but I promise you it will arrive and the kitchen staff will have a
load lifted off of their shoulders thanks to your generosity and the Lord’s
miraculous ability to provide. For that, I thank you.
As for an update about what is happening here in Kenya, I
don’t have too much time or too much to say. Christmas and New Year’s was such
an adventure as I navigated and experienced the Kenyan versions, and I know for
a fact that I will never forget the holiday season of 2012. People were coming
in and out and there was food and fellowship with people who have only been
here since the beginning of December yet with whom I have already formed a bond
with. I’ve met so many wonderful people this holiday season and will be sad to
see them go as the new school year starts and everybody goes back to their
homes or to their schools.
I am currently drinking a cup of strong coffee at 5:28 in
the morning, listening to Africa wake up. Every day I learn something new and
every morning I am more grateful for my life than I was the day before. I am
blessed and the Lord has been showing me His heart for me in big ways over
these past few days, especially. Thank you for your prayers and your continued
support. I love you all and I wish you a wonderful New Year.
