1st Proposal

Church below the Acacia tree. The men, women, and children take turns dancing and singing

We spent some time after church singing and praying with the
youth. The man on the right wants to start a boda boda service

Yesterday was a big day down in the camps. We enjoyed a wonderful time of worship below the acacia tree with some Kikuyu IDPs. Noah was asked to preach and he gave the congregation the story of creation and redemption. It was awesome! Afterwards, we met with the youth and sang songs with them and prayed together. Several of the youth are preparing for their enormous national exams that are coming up. We prayed for their exams and they prayed for wisdom for us for our projects.


These women make beautiful baskets. We are trying to help
them find a cost effective way of making them.



We met with Francis and Daniel after that and were surprised with a business proposal from them, neatly typed and prepared. We had been planning on asking them to start writing a business proposal  for review next week. It was awesome to see that they had already taken the initiative to prepare. Today we will be reviewing the proposal with the aide of some of our Kenyan friends here to see if we can trim down the size of the proposed peanut farm. We are learning that it is far bbeter to start small and let the people build their own projects then to invest a ton of money and see money go to waste. I think we are learning a great deal about efficiency. Please pray that we would have wisdom about this Peanut farm and that we would know how much is too much to invest into this project. There are also several other small businesses that have asked us for help. We need you prayers as we meet and discuss and plan. We will let you know what happens soon. Thanks--Henry
