A old woman camp in to the medical camp yesterday. We called her “Grandmother Masai”. I have no idea how old she was, most likely, she didn’t know how old she was either, but I would guess her age at somewhere between 95 and 100. She was a tiny woman […]
Dr. Jonathan Cadera is a 43 year old doctor who is one in a million. He was born and raised in a remote Masai village just a few miles from the great Masai Mara Game Reserve. As far as anyone can tell he is the only Masai boy from this […]
We made the two hour drive from Nairobi to Narok in exactly 5 ½ hours. First we were stopped and detained by the police. They looked at our insurance stickers and told our driver they were not in order. They were certainly in order, but there was no way this […]
Just picked up Kathy Pryor at the airport. She is in town just for one day to work some things out with the land office regarding their YWAM base. “Work some things out” rolled off my lips very easy, but believe me “It takes a miracle” to accomplish almost anything […]

It’s raining in Kakamega! People in Seattle don’t know the meaning of the word “rain”. For the last few hours the rain has been so loud that you can’t even carry on a conversation. This is the first rain that Kakamega has seen for several months, so there is celebration […]
AN OUNCE OF PREVENTION IS WORTH A POUND OF CURE: We are sitting in the Nairobi Airport waiting for our Flight to Kisumu. We have just come from the area of town called Kayole. It is on the extreme eastern edge of town. For the last 4 years we have […]
