Week 65 DTF Mar


There is a great deal of flooding right now in Nairobi Kenya. I asked him how it was effecting the work:

It's not too bad to the point where all life stops but a matatu ride that should take 30 minutes now takes 2 hours which is kinda not cool. 

Had a lovely day today,  bought some milk for some fundi gentlemen to help me make a bush knife just in case I go back to ukombani and I need to go into the bush again. accidentally set myself on fire kidogo (dont tell mom) but the end product I am most pleased with. Also my companion learned how to make cow hoof stew which is aparently very good if you need some energy. tastes like Beef soup. and I have finally found a good workout routine for mission which I think you will be happy with because it involves "mastering my body weight" which is something I would like to do.

We are teaching some awesome people at the moment but things are slow. one of my favorite people we are meeting with now Is a single mother of two named sister ragina, her first born is 10 and has seribral palsy so he cannot communicate or do things the way most do, but he is a wonderful young man. in our first lesson we told her the church's outlook on those with mental and physical disabilities and she hasn't missed church ever since. she already has good friends in the church and believes strongly in the doctrine, you could say she is "golden". apparently all the other churches she has gone to people try to "heal" her son which kind of offended her since she knows how special he is. Kenyan pastors are funny to be honest. I know if I didn't have the church in my life I would most definitely not be going to any church haha. thankful for my upbringing and the gospel I got.
I love you guys I hope you know that. be sure to share this with mom, I didn't write much in my response to her and I feel bad haha. 
also I put some more rants up in the drive for y'all. 

Here is my short letter:

Hey mahm! thanks for sharing that lovelyness.

The shoes are elder jack's I was just borrowing them cuz I forgot mine haha. and yeah flooding is bad, we have had to change plans and direction many a times because of it. The city hasnt seen anything like this for a long time. Im not sure if it's record breaking or just above average but there is alot of it. 

Love yoooouuuu!!!





My guess is they are praying for the gecko before sending him back into the wild.
