BLOG #15: Home Sweet Home

Dear Friends and Family,

I apologize for not being able to post for over a week. We have been so busy and we were unable to use any computers this past week. Tim, Sharon, and I are the first group to leave Kenya, and we arrived home around 9pm tonight. Steven, Alina, James, Janette, Joseph, and Theresa are the second group leaving Kenya and they will arrive tomorrow evening. Grace Kim and Terrence are staying until the end of the week, coming back on the weekend.

I have so much to post and now I can actually add photos and videos! For now though, since it's late, I'll just post one video from this week's VBS program at Deliverance Church. This is about 800 people, and we are singing and dancing to the song, "Today is the Day." Their VBS program is Monday to Friday this week from 8am to 1pm, and everyday, they start off with Sing & Play with the whole group. Then we split into 5 rotations: games, bible story, craft, snacks and dance, and video discussion. Eight Count taught a routine to the World Cup song in each rotation! At the end of the day, we all return together for the finale sing and play. Here is one of the songs we taught them!

Enjoy! And stay posted!

  1. Welcome back Team Kenya, I hope to read more about what has happened in Murang'a. Sounds like you made a great positive first impression! Thanks for the video. I am unable to see it on the iPad but will look forward to watching that and more videos.
