There is a lot day to say! Or Sunday service started at 9 and lasted till about 2:00 PM, followed by food, conversation and photographs until 4:30 or 5:00 PM.
Almost everything happened in that service; the worship team and the congregation sang, swayed, moved and danced! Doug and I both preached. There were special performances by singers and dancers. Have a look at my Facebook page for video evidence!
And did I say it was hot? Their sanctuary was packed with about 600 people; and it has a tin roof. It was like a sauna in there! On Saturday when Doug was doing his last session, it began to rain – hard. It was so loud on that tin roof that he had to wrap it up early; plus people were gathering and placing buckets because of all of the leaks in the roof.
Today we had an excellent meeting with the VMK board. We worked through our future plans for leadership training with a sharper focus on training leaders who have capacity to train others.
You may remember that in my email just prior to leaving for Kenya I mentioned that we need some used laptops. Jerry Organ put me in touch with Dr Tom Musli who provides refurbished laptops for schools in all of Kenya. We had a great time with him yesterday and again today.
Tomorrow we are going to a second region where we will repeat our training sessions followed by another long service on Sunday. We will be in the middle of the Masai district and may not have Internet connections again until Sunday evening.
While we are in that area, we plan to visit the miracle well that was drilled a couple of weeks ago (300 metres deep).
Thanks again for your encouragement and support!
By the way, I have a mouse in my room.
