Greetings and a Happy New year to you. We hope you are all well. We are doing well out at the farm except that it has been difficult to go into town to get food and other supplies due to the riots and chaos in our capital city Nairobi. We request that you pray for us and our country that we will have peace and that things will get back to normal.
 
With all this happening, God has blessed us with a group of Aggies for Christ (from Texas A & M) who are doing a day camp with our students basing thier theme from John 3:16. So far it has been real fun. Today we are doing the second part of the lessons, and they started with a Texas cowboy "wanted poster" picture taking. Attached is Scholastica, one of our students taking her "wanted" picture. We are glad to have such fun especially since some parts of our country are really bad.
 
Have a blessed day.




Our Sunday afternoon class has become one of the attractions and a wonderful learning time for our students. The seventh lesson was a big one for the students but they did really well. Tabitha, Mary Muthoni, Fatuma and the new Mercy worked extra hard to find ways to be kind to the boys. They all talked of how they helped some boys who did not have money to buy lunch on an outing they had organized for themselves with a few team members. Nancy talked of how she wanted to "abuse" (note: this is verbal, usually means to insult) one of the boys who had wronged her but then remembered the week's practise. She went and apologized and reminded the boy of what the practice was that week---be a good wife or husband for the future. Wahu got to talk to one of the boys whom she said they hardly talk and the boy was amazed and happy. Attached is Nancy sharing while others wait for their turn.
 
Sarah has asked me to be baptized already and the others are being helped by team and the Aggies. Something else to be thankful about.
 
Love you,  Mbuvi
