Tuesday, December 2, 2008. I know i'm already home, but many eventful things took place in my last weeks in nairobi so i'll be doing a little catch up on the blog in these next days. shall i start off with shauna and her braids? I haven't uploaded all our pics of our 8 hours of being plated, so this one will serve as a preview. my scalp might be itching like poison ivy, but i'm holding out 'til my buddy sees me.because she's gonna want them asap when she gets back:).

This week we've been doing some beautification at the Bible College in Kibera. which means, i've been doing some serious driving in Kibera. so all that praying you guys are doing on behalf of me behind the wheel.it's really working:) i really try to steer clear of people, matatu's, and large blue busses:).

http://joymarieward.blogspot.com/2007_11_01_archive.html

But it is always that. Our weakness in prayer is owing largely to our neglect of this truth. Prayer is primarily a wartime walkie. We have stopped believ...
