Family Retreat Refuge

We found a cottage near Lake Naivasha that charges about $15 a day. Run by a kindly retired MD, a Kenyan of British decent. We visit here often – it’s our retreat home away from the city. We talk to the animals, Flamingos, giraffe, zebra, hippo, gazelle, monkeys, antelope, storks, vultures… yes its Noah’s back yard!

The peep found a peep

Bethany’s gone native. But not for long. She found braided hair a bit painful. Women the world over suffer for beauty’s sake!

Blessings from a Rock

On the edge of Kibera is a small very toxic stream because it receives the sewage from the slums. Yet out of such a stream comes a prayer of profound blessing! Kibera is often like that.

Acrobats in Kibera

These boys can flip and twist and flip into a hard clay pit. I was amazed at their agility, courage, and vitality. The children of Kibera are as talented and diverse as you’d find in any city of one million people.

Wilson Onyango - Our partner in Kibera

Wilson visited The Family Church in Gainesville Florida recently, representing our ministry in Kibera. He’s the pastor on the left in this picture. Wilson grew up in the slums, has returned with his German born wife, Karen, to work in mission in the slums. He is proving to be a valuable partner to us.

Where has the basement gone?

A member of Pastor Frank’s church (our partners) in Kibera lost the floor of his bedroom one night as flood waters washed the ground out from underneath his home. Fortunately no one fell through and the family moved into the living room. Most homes in kibera have only one room.

Kibera Pastor's Fellowship

These pastors who work in some of the poorest parts of Kibera have become dear friends to me. We have helped establish about half a dozen cell groups that help pastors who have little or no denominational support. These pastors call me "teacher" – but I believe they are my teacher.

Busy Youth Baptism

We baptized 16 ex gangsters recently. One of these young men is helping me baptize a boy from our partner’s church Nairobi Believer’s Mission pastored by Frank Nyemeche. The “Busy Youth” as they call themselves are becoming a church. We meet Sunday and Thursday afternoons. They range in age from 15 to 35 – all young men.
