All we can really say is "WOW!" We have literally just arrived back in Nairobi from the bush of Turkana. We don't have a lot of time, so this message will be brief, but we want everyone to know that we are all doing very well and God showed up in big ways while we were in Turkana. We saw so many Turkanas come to know Jesus Christ personally, we were able to serve over 100 families with food relief and even more with medical relief. God has truly amazed each one of us and we are excited to see what the rest of the trip holds.
Today, we are about to eat lunch and then heading to the world's largest slum, Kabira, before heading to the city market to get some souveniers. Tomorrow we will wake up very early for a much need rest on a trip that will not only make memories, but will allow us to encounter God's creation up close and personal. We are going on a safari. After that we are heading home. Thanks for everyone's love and prayers. We will write more once we get a little bit more time.
