And we are off

Bruce, Laurie, Lupita, Eliza, Sean and Caleb.

We all leave in just a couple hours from Pullman for our 30+ hour trip to Kenya.

We arrive at 6am on Thursday (Kenya time) in Nairobi where we'll recover and buy some of the supplies people donated money for. We'll leave the next day for Garissa. We want to thank everyone for their abundant generosity--not only were all individual financial needs met, but we received donations for nearly all of the sharing tree tag items--including the well! For those of you who included a legible email address we'll send an email to you when we donate or use your item. We'll also include info about how the donations were used on posts about the trip along with photos in this blog. We don't know how available internet is there so the blog update may be sporatic, but we'll try to have an entry per day.

This is for sure the most printed materials we've ever taken on a trip as we have plans to put on both an encounter and a marriage seminar for Ken. I hope they have good photocopiers in Garissa :-)

Everyone is really excited--we can hardly wait to get on our way. We'll have a lot to report on in terms of the spirirtual and financial blessings we'll be able to share, so keep checking the blog. We know that God plans on doing great things in and through us during our time in Kenya.

God bless you all!

Team Kenya (Bruce, Laurie, Eliza, Lupita, Caleb, and Sean)
