Rabbits and Such

I already wrote last week about Monday. On Tuesday Terry and I went visiting in Mathaithi and had one good visit with a neighbor to the church.

A lady at Ihwagi sent 7 rabbits to feed the visitors, only trouble they needed to be killed and cooked and eaten… all of which needed time. Some of our guys killed them. I cut and cooked two for the visitors because I didn’t have time to do more, and already had my meal planned for Wednesday when they all came here to eat. Anyway, what I prepared was all eaten and enjoyed. The rest we were told could be given to our Youth In Training kicds. We are thankful. So, Wednesday we had about 25 here for lunch. Our apartment is small, so Terry set up tables outside, and had backache the rest of the week. Things went smoothly. The visitors then went to an outreach ministry and came back late.

Thursday Daniel and Cherie (nephew and wife who stayed with us) left with most of the visitors. We then had two singles move here; the girl in the office and the guy on the floor in the living room.

Had class at Pan African school. Whitney, the girl, went with us and seemed to enjoy it. It went well. In the afternoon I helped sort through clothes (the visitors are encouraged to bring clothes and leave them here to help people. With 20 visitors, there was quite a lot.) to be given out in the ministries.

We were saddened to hear that the girl we visited in the hospital last Saturday, died on Thursday. The funeral is Wednesday or Thursday this week. She had made a profession of faith.

Friday we went to the town orphanage managed by the Town Council and donations from outsiders. Steve (brother) and friends raised a lot of money for uniforms for the kids and are letting our ladies make them and the sweaters for school to make a little money. So Pastor H will be in charge of the money, and I am to get money from him. Would appreciate prayer for God’s guidance.

Saturday class with YIT kids went well.

Today we only had 2 deaf in church…

We leave early in the a.m. to go and see Daniel and Kristie until Wed. a.m. Lord willing. There wasn’t room for us at Menno, so are staying at a place closer to town.

Sandy for us both
