My heart is so full! Today we had our 3rd Annual Network Partners Conference. Last night there was a powerful rainstorm that caused flooding all over the city of Nairobi. Buildings were knocked down by the force of raging waters moving through all parts of the city. This morning there […]

Today we visited our Christian School in the Dagoretti Slums. The kids know us very well now and express great joy whenever we come. As we walk through the gate we are mobbed by hundreds of kids who want to give us “high-fives”. We made a special effort to visit […]
