  Greetings from Kenya!   We welcome you to join us on a photo journey of our lives.   Tiffany's monkey bite is healing nicely, with the exception of a few scars that may disappear with time. She needs only two more rabies shots before completing the course!  Zilpa invited her pastor and bishop to join her in a celebration of her life. She has set aside a certain day in September to celebrate her "birthday", not her birth as a baby, but the second chance and extended life God has given her. She has been a blessing at our church. She requested prayer about a debt she had accumulated. We welcome you to pray that God would provide for her. In a latter meeting, she was encouraged to pay as she can, communicate with her debtors, and trust God. Zilpa's cattle corral (above).

It looked awful and hurt her terribly. Monkey bites can be very dangerous. We took her to the doctor, and she started Tiffany on series of anti-rabies shots along with antibiotics. We are thankful the bitten area is healing, and she has been a very brave girl for her shots. She has not cried for any of her shots!! Prayers of friends at home have been answered again!    We are again reminded that we are not promised a long life. One of our church ladies has been sick for several months. Recently, she showed Glenda a large growth on her abdomen. Tests revealed multiple growths, including ...
