It's still hard to believe that I'm actually in Kenya, and it only took a day of traveling to get here. The community at Endona welcomed us in true Kenyan style, and they were as excited to see us as we were them. This is my first trip to Kenya, but from what I've heard and seen, this area has made much progress. It's amazing. We started the secondary school program yesterday, and it is unbelievable how mature some of these kids are in their relationship with Christ. Although this is my first time here in Kenya, you can't help but recognize the great work that God is doing in this community. We will be attending church with the Endona community this morning, and will have a chance to speak with a number of local churches. I can't wait to get out there and how the rest of the week will turn out.
So we had another amazing day in Kenya. We wrapped up the youth seminar, and really had some great discussions with the Kenyan high school boys.
Also I had an opportunity to speak with the secondary school kids at their Sunday church service. The rest of the group was able to speak at the other churches in the area. It was amazing to see an entire church service organized and put together by a group of high school kids. And this is how they do church every week. I was able to speak with them about loving God, and loving themselves as God loves them. I definitely took more away from this church service listening to one of the students, Stephen, speak to his classmates than I could have hoped to give to them. All in all this has been an amazing trip!
