It
was about a 5 hour layover and I stretched out and went to sleep at the airport. I woke up when a friend from Florida was
excitedly rubbing my hair and calling me by my name. She was with her folks
that we had not seen in years. They were excited to see our sons who they had
not seen since they were babies.
Our
first trip there American missionaries from the NW USA met us and drove us in
their 4 wheel Land Rover through the game park. There was so much
wildlife. We were very thrilled and
excited to see so many animals. The
scenery was stunning. Lake Naivasha is a fresh water lake and you can enter
Hells Gate National Park which we enjoyed immensely. You see more flamingos
than you can count in the little town of Nakuru. I missed seeing a leopard in two of the trees
on this outing. Pepper and Jacob
attended school at the Rift Valley Academy.
Even twenty years later they hear from some of their classmates. RVA is
a Christian boarding school in Central Kenya.
Jacob (Titchie Swat) grade 4 after the first year transferred to Sakeji
in Zambia and he was able to come home three times, and Pepper 2 times a semester.
I told Pepper not to play rugby. During
one of Pepper’s holidays he asked me if he could play rugby, and I said
“absolutely not!” The next term a missionary from Chingola visited their
children and told me how well Pepper had done during a rugby game where he was
knocked out cold.
Please
pray for the Christians in Kenya to be equipped to witness to the Muslim
population.
