So I am already over halfway through my time here in Kenya! That absolutely blows my mind. It's crazy how fast time is starting to fly by, but it's amazing to look back and see all the amazing adventures Jesus has taken me on throughout the first half of my time here. Below, I have included some of the pictures from my first two and a half weeks here. God is so present here, in all of the beautiful children and people I have encountered and in the never ending mountains and blue skies!
 |
| My first day in Kenya, picking up precious Mercy from the Safe House and bringing her to her new home at Naomi's Village! |
 |
| My second day was spent picking up sweet Moses, only 10 days old, and bringing him to Naomi's Village where he will now grow up with so much hope and love! It was an exciting first two days to say the least! |
 |
| Just planting a tree in Kenya, no big deal. |
 |
| Teaching some kids at the IDP camp JD's signature dance move during sometime spent with the Love Africa team from Clemson. |
 |
| Selfies during chai time with these goofballs! |
 |
| ...And more selfies during school! |
 |
| Reunited with my sweet friend Ruth from last summer at Little Lambs! |
 |
| Candid photos around Naomi's Village with some of the most beautiful in the world! |
 |
| Hiking Mt. Longonot with friends! |
 |
| Massai church with this beauty and feeling the presence of the Lord more than ever, even if I can't understand a word the people of the village were saying! |
This is only a mere snapshot (and not even close to all the pictures I have) of all the incredible experiences I have had in my first two and a half weeks here! I am so sad that my time here is over halfway done, but I cannot wait to see what Jesus has in store for the remaining time I have here in this wonderful country!
"But if anyone has the world's goods and sees his brother in need, yet closes his heart against him, how does God's love abide in him? Little children, let us not love in word or talk but in deed and truth." 1 John 3:17-18
My prayer for my time left here is just that, that I would love on these people through all of my efforts actions, a love that is completely from the Lord. His love is so extravagant and never ending, and my hopes are that through my actions, His love would continually be made known!
