hey all,
not too much to report, other than the fact that life is great. i've had the opportunity to speak several times now and that has been awesome. i've basically been tagging along with dave for a couple days now and that has been really enlightening. it's been good to see everything he encounters on a normal day, from meeting with street kids, to visiting the dump to pray with people, to repeatedly visiting the power complany trying to get power hooked up for the staff housing at rohi.
today we have a staff vs. kids soccer match, and i'm on the staff team, so bank on a kids victory. i do however plan on winning the trash-talking battle. they're not too good at that here. i'm teaching them. it's my spiritual gift.
the team is here and they're awesome. it's fun not to be the new guy, and to get to show them around. they all seem to think that i know much more than i actually do. pray for everyone's health. also for all the muthua's-that god continues to bless them and give them guidance. they're the greatest people.
may the lord bless you and keep you!! may his face shine down upon you and give you peace!!
love you guys,

i'm lovin this passage right now. enjoy.
isaiah 40
Comfort, comfort my people,
says your God.
Speak tenderly to Jerusalem,
and proclaim to her
that her hard service has been completed,
that her sin has been paid for,
that she has received from the LORD's hand
double for all her sins.
A voice of one calling:
"In the desert prepare
the way for the LORD;
make straight in the wilderness
a highway for our God.
Every valley shall be raised up,
every mountain and hill made low;
the rough ground shall become level,
the rugged places a plain.
And the glory of the LORD will be revealed,
and all mankind together will see it.
For the mouth of the LORD has spoken."

Hev Kevie,
I was perusing Psalms and Isaiah last night and honed in on this passage as well. I love how God's word has something new to speak to us every time and no matter where we are.
Happy Valentine's Day, my sweetie.
Praying for you all the time.

Kevin,
Keep the updates coming. We are enjoying them. What an amazing opportunity...write about it daily so when you are old like me, you will remember all the small blessings and miracles from this trip.

Kevin! So I finally figured out how to create a profile so that I could leave you comments- I made it way too difficult. But it sounds like you are having an amazing experience and I cannot wait to talk to you about it! I LOVED your post about the Serengeti (did I spell it right?)-- so beautiful! But anyway, I am thinking of you and keeping you in prayer always! -katie
dude...i know... kenyans totally suck at trash-talking. i'm glad you're over there to help them out with that. i'm not as quick-witted as you, so i would just slide-tackle them and stuff.
