Jambo rafikis! It’s almost been three weeks here at Kipkaren and it seems that I wake up and experience something new everyday! Last Wednesday, I got the opportunity to go on some home visits to locals that are HIV positive. We stopped by the home of a man named Joseph and found that he was actually in the hospital at the time. We prayed for him with his family and today we got to go back and visit with him. It was amazing seeing our prayers in action. He told us that he had heard of our visit and appreciated all of our prayers and thoughts and that he had been unsure if he would even make it back home again. It was wonderful seeing him with his family and how much he appreciated the little time that we got to spend with him. I know if we keep praying and even greater things will happen!
Other then that, I’m still blown away by the beauty of my surroundings here. A few of us are planning a hike some weekend and some more long walks to explore even more of this area. I’m learning lots of Swahili and have even planned a devotion for the kids tomorrow night that is about 25% in Swahili! The last few nights have been enjoyed by a fire with the children. School is going really well, I’m enjoying working with the kids and getting a feel for the classroom environment here in Kenya. I’m still getting used to walking down the road and hearing kids yell out, “Hello, Madam Kayte”! Keep watching for updates there are always new memories being made!
