Water and Praises Flow
in the Makueni District

I can’t figure out a way to mute my emotions. Today was simply a highlight of my life. Sixty percent of Kenya’s population lives in rural areas and half of these citizens have no access to an improved water source. For this last-mile community, hidden in the high hills of the Makueni District, water flowed today. Their future is changed. At the commissioning of this water project hundreds from the community came; a celebration erupted, praising God with unrestrained exuberance and overwhelming thankfulness.

School children’s choir singing at Program.

Another thing I can’t figure out is how will I communicate to LWR supporters how much their support is appreciated!

Tomorrow, we take a day off. Kirk Betts and the LWR board will be happy to hear this. We go on a mini-safari in the Tsavo National Park among lions, baboons, antelope, rhinos, giraffes, hippos, monkeys and 450 species of birds.

Then Sunday, I preach at the Lutheran Cathedral on Uhuru Highway back in Nairoba.
