Pastor Josphat and me in front of his church, Word Fellowship Centre, in the Kibera slums of Nairobi. (For more info about the church, check out: www.wordfellowshipkenya.org or read my Africa trip blog: common-grace.blogspot.com)
Pouring porridge for snacktime at the Waithaka Compassion project on my first visit there.
Again, I wrote about my time working with Compassion in Kenya at my blog: common-grace.blogspot.com
Attending a Saturday parents meeting at Compassion project in Waithaka
Reciting a poem, titled "Cruel Aids" with some of the Compassion teenagers on World Aids Day. Four compassion projects came together for the day's festivities.
The slums of Kibera, home to one million Kenyans
Open sewage is one of the biggest threats to hygiene for Kibera residents
Precious children in Kibera -- there is no shortage of these beautiful kids in Kenya!

Ben, the new computer teacher at the technology school here at the church
There's my great friend Ruth! She attends Word Fellowship Centre, and I met her on my very first day there ~ what a *blessing* her friendship was and is to me.
Cute kids outside Ruth's home .. the little fat one ran and giggled every time I approached him! :)
Mamlaka Hill Chapel -where Lisa attends church on sundays. This is just about a 10 minute walk from her home, and I passed the church each morning on my way to the bus stage. Pastor Josphat also works here as a receptionist during the day. Both Mamlaka and Word Fellowship are church plants by Nairobi Chapel
Uhuru Park - or "Independence Park" down the hill from Lisa's.
Here's me and the lovely Bella!!
So few pictures to illustrate my time in Kenya (not even one of my amazing host, Lisa!) - but perhaps it is better that way. I've already given you all more than enough to look at with my other albums!
