Our time in Kenya has come to an end and with that comes mixed emotions. The past three years have been a rewarding experience and a time that has left an indelible mark on our hearts meeting people we will never forget especially the beautiful children. We hope our blogs have given a glimpse into the work of the Mission, the good it does, and the hope it provides to many. We also hope your hearts were touched by the people you came to read about and see through the stories and pictures. We are grateful to all who support the work of the Mission and we know the people of Kenya are grateful as well.

Our last blog was in April and a lot has happened in that time. Wes and Fr. David moved into the new house last week and the gathering space along with other projects around the shamba are on-going. The picture is of Wes and Mary who is the daughter of Robert, our caretaker at the new shamba. If you cannot view the photos, see instructions at the end of the article.
It has been two months since our last blog and in that two months a lot has happened. While Kathy is at home for medical reasons, Wes continues to stay in Kenya carrying on the work of the Mission for both, he and Kathy. There are many things going on at the Mission including getting closer to move in day at the new shamba.
