Today the group is leaving Tarasaa, and we will all spend two nights at the resort on the Indian Ocean. The team will then travel home, and we will travel back to our house in the village. It has been an amazing experience so far. Here are a few of the highlights:
--We have successfully started two sewing co-ops, one in the village of Tarasaa and one in the village of Furaha.
--We finished the inside of the church we planted two years ago in Furaha. This culminated a joyous dedication and worship service this past Sunday. The church was packed, and the Holy Spirit was moving.
--We made a number of repairs at our school in Eghekumbi. We took teams and shared the gospel with every home in the village. In addition, we administered medical care and prayed for around 30 sick people there. Many experienced miraculous healing.
--Thus far, Steve has recorded six choirs as part of the research for his sabbatical and is scheduled to record three more when the family returns.
Our family is doing great, and our kids have fallen in love with Kenya as much as Shelby and I have. They are already talking about coming back. God bless all of you, and thank you for your prayers and support.
Thanks also for your prayers for Samson, the missionary in Tarasaa we've partnered with since this relationship began in 2000. He was very sick for several months this winter, but he held up well during our visit. As he told us, "You are the best medication for me."
--Pastor Steve, Shelby, Lauren, Madison and Morgan
