Jambo from Kenya!

We are thankful that all the Open Arms International mission team members have arrived safely in Kenya, Africa with bags. Thank you for your prayers!

We enjoyed two days in Nairobi before continuing the journey to Eldoret today. Activities included shopping, feeding giraffes, visiting Sheldrick Wildlife Trust where orphaned elephants and rhinos are cared for, and getting to know each other at meal times. Some of our team members survived being charged by a rhino! Good thing it was only six months old. They have a great story to share with their grandchildren some day;)

We have a great group of people on the team. They are all working really well together. Those of us from the US are struggling to stay awake during the day and sleep at night. However, that is not a problem for our UK teammates.

Tomorrow will be our first day of work at the Open Arms Village. We are anxious to roll up our sleeves and get to work. I am looking forward to seeing the children again.

Abarikiwe! (Be Blessed!)
