Sunday Worship and Final Goodbyes


Today is our last day in Kenya.  We started the day attending an African Inland Church in a remote village.  Very unusual service, very cultural.  The women sat on one side of the church, the men on the other.  It seemed like a majority of the church today was children and they love music and love to dance.

Everyone was very loving and friendly.  At the end of the service every person shook the hand of every person in a sort of chain fashion that worked around the room.  Some of the women hugged or kissed us as they went by.  This church is a missionary church pastored by an AIM missionary from Moffat Bible College in Kijabe.

I had a little shadow who stuck close to my side, and Jackie was surrounded by kids wanting to get close to her or get their picture taken.  Quite a day.

We are now off to the airport for our ride home.  Both of us are ready to get home, ready to see our family and even Maggie our golden.  On the plane and during our layover in Amsterdam we have a chance to discuss our plans for the next few months and or years and how it all fits with the BethanyKids and Joytown mission.

Bless you all this Lords day,

Gary & Jackie
