March Days

* Ava hanging out with biker Steve!

This coming week will be a time for us to focus on Short Term Missions as the Kenya team meets with the CBM director of STM, Carmin MacMillan, who is visiting from Toronto. We are excited about several STMs coming to Kenya this year from Canada (many had been postponed in January and February because of the post election unrest).

Lifting up Kenya in Prayer

* We are thankful for the returning peace throughout the country. This week nearly half of the children living in the temporary camp at the Eastleigh Community Centre were able to return to their families. The centre continues to care for about 40 children living in the school and supporting the families who are resettling into the slum from the Red Cross camps.

* We are encouraged by the small developments made in Ava's adoption. Please pray for a hearing happening this week with the adoption agency. We hope to have a court date soon.

* This week has seen developments in Kenya's political situation as the country's leaders follow up on the agreements made to establish power sharing between the PNU and ODM parties. At present, it looks like there will not be a new election for another four years. We praise God for the return to stability in Kenya!
