Many thanks to all who prayed for us on the journey to Kenya. It was an interesting path, but I believe God orchestrated it to get our bags filled with books to encourage and equip pastors to Kenya in the least expensive way possible. We were thrilled to see those bags when we arrived in Mombasa! Praise God!!!
We arrived yesterday at 8am and got to the hotel about 9:30. Guy and Rob had just enough time to shower and head to the pastor's conference. They moved the schedule around a bit to accomodate our late arrival. The guys each had 1 session. Both were well received by the pastors. Today they will have a full day with 2 sessions a piece and the Bible Institute graduation at the end of the day.
While the guys were at the conference Kristen took me to Vipingo. I enjoyed stopping in to each of the classes to greet them and give those teachers a great big hug. What a joy!! We checked out the 1000 pair of shoes the group will distribute next week. Wow! I will upload pictures later when I have a bit more time.
I enjoyed eating with the teachers. They are such precious people! Kristen and I took 500 pair of shoes to Bomani so I had the opportunity to greet them as well. Today we are going with Bechtels back to Bomani for chapel and then to Gospel to see Pastor Allan's church and high school.
Thank you for praying for us!

What a journey! So glad you all made it safe and that the bags made it too! Can't wait to see the pictures of the shoes being distributed. Praying for you!
