Life

Hmmm.... cool things that have happened lately....

~ We got to watch one of the guys that the old team led to Christ get baptized in the water tank in our supervisors compound! He's a teenage guy from a Muslim background, so, getting baptized was a huge deal for him, and a huge blessing for us to be able to watch.

~ All of the kids are out of school for the month of April (They get one month off between every term), so we won't be going out to any of the schools much this next month. :(

~ We had camel heart for lunch the other day...not bad at all

~ The number of mongoose (does that word have a plural??) in our compound lately has been ridiculous. We walked in a few days ago to find at least thirty of them running through our trash pit.

~ We have a new night guard. (Apparently, in Kenya, you don't hire friends to work for you, because the line between friend and employee gets really blurry really fast -- oops.) Our old night guard, David, is still a friend, and we're probably going to go work on his house sometime soon, before the rains start.

~ The old team leaves in two weeks! :( It will be very strange to drop down to eight wazungu students where there have been sixteen...

That's all I can think of right now...I'll let you know if I remember anything else.
