Hey Everyone,
This is probably the last chance we'll get to email. We have been very busy. Today we spent most the day at Huruma in a Mother Theresa orphanage and disabled children's home. The babies and disabled kids who live there were either thrown away or left on the steps of the home. There are 30 babies there and over 50 disabled children. It was a very emotionally and spiritually draining day but God's joy and goodness was among the suffering and we feel blessed to have been a part of it today. I saw a boy there who is disabled, that I saw 3 years ago and remember feeding and playing with. He has an extremely big head, and his body is just bone and the size of a 3 year old but must be at least 10 years old. I will have to write more about him later but it was good and sad to see him again. At least he is still alive but not adopted or getting better. I don't know his name but please pray for him.
We also have had a Islam day and a Hindu day which both days God kept reminding me of darkness that people live in and He is the only Light and there is an urgency that I now understand in sharing the gospel to people and helping to show them the Light of Jesus.
Tomorrow we are going back to Thika to do prison ministry...so Ryan and I get to see our pastor again! Very exciting and please be praying for the prisoners as we go that they may see the Light of Jesus. Prisoners here are the lowest of low so we took an offering and collected money to buy some simple supplies to give to them...like soap and underwear.
So much has gone on and God has been teaching us many things. We will write more when we get home and have had time to process the lessons and things we are learning and seeing.
Talk to you soon!
