Hello everyone! It's been over a month now since I updated this blog and things just keep getting better:) I hope to get the hang of this blogging before too long and maybe I'll be able to update more than once a month. Anyway, the month of September was wonderful! It was a great month getting to know and love the children a little more and getting to know and love the other SIM missionaries a little more. The other SIM Carolina friends are gone from Tumaini now, but we'll still be seeing each other in Nairobi once in awhile.
In September...
We started small group Bible studies for the children twice a week and what a blessing that has been! Please pray that these Bible studies continue and are fruitful. I have one book of studies that we're using right now, but eventually I'll be trying to teach them how to study the Bible without an actual "study" to go by....at least that's the goal!
We took a trip to Nakuru National Park for the morning and saw rhinos, monkeys, zebras, flamingos and more....in their natural habitat and it was just amazing. God has made some beautiful creatures! I even fed a monkey...Tavia would be so proud!
Two of Katie's friends visited us at Tumaini and we even had birthday cake for Austin's birthday! That was a treat!
Six other SIM missionaries and I are off to Mombosa (the coast) for a few days of rest and recharging! Adam's (one of the other SIMers) parents offered their timeshare to us - their treat! Blessing after blessing....
And the highlight of month number 2 was when Kariuki called me a white African:)
Thank you for your prayers, cards, and emails! They mean more than I know how to say. Much love to all of you!
