Team Kisumu




All the smiling faces (and even those not smiling!) are the entire team from Kisumu moments before the safari group departed. We have heard that they arrived safely back in Nairobi and are now taking their safari! The rest of us in Kisumu are working with the Dutch volunteers at the primary and secondary schools. During our first week here the secondary school teachers in the public schools were on strike and we were not able to go with the Choose to Wait instructors to any secondary schools. Fortunately the strike is over and we have now been able to go to three secondary schools in two days!

Last evening we experienced a pretty wild thunderstorm - and as a result - the power went out! Thankfully the power came back on sometime during the night and we are all back-in-action! We will be returning to two primary schools today as we continue to share stories, songs, and other activities with the children.

I can't say enough how amazing it is here and even more - how amazing are the people of Kenya! Thank you all for your prayers and your encouragement. We see answers to those prayers constantly - God is so good!
