The day was a long one we left the compound at 9:30am and got back home at 9pm. We first went to Ruben house, Ruben is a pastor, and he runs a ministry school and a christian radio station. We spent most of the day working there. We worked at the stations, and in the library and did some fixing up around his home. Ruben has studied under Ravi Zaccharias, and now works to combat the false religions of Kenya. He has been blind since the age of two, but has not allowed that to stop him. As I listen to him it became very clear to me that this man loves Jesus Christ and is fully committed to following him.
Kyle one of our team has been busy not with us but actually flying with the Samaritan Purse team. On both Thursday and Friday, they flew into Southern Sudan, they took thousand of pounds of food and supplies to refugee camp. One camp had 70,000 and the other have over 110,000 people. The days have been very long for him but God is using the experience in his life, and in ours.
Kenya has a way of causing you to rethink what's really important in life, but also a way of causing you to be thankful and a way of teaching you to love people and not to see people by what they have, but by who they are. I am grateful that God brought us here, but I'll be grateful to be back home to love those who don't know Christ there.
