It’s been too long since I wrote. We’ve been in Kenya for seven months now. Can you actually believe it? I can't. Some times I feel like we’ve been here forever, other days I want to get out of here asap. A lot of new exciting changes are happening in our family and at Agape, and at the same time we feel Satan is hard pressing the ministry and our family on every side. If Satan feels he needs to stop us so bad, I guess that means we must be doing something right. Pray for us in these four remaining months and beyond. There is so much to do and I'm going to make sure you're going to know about it.

California bound!? Yes. We are coming back to California. All 10 of us, Lord willing. Half of us come into San Francisco on November 4th, the rest the 5th. I have mixed feelings ... I think we all do. I'm ready for Starbucks, hugging my best friends, church that lasts only an hour and people that can actually understand what I'm saying. But I'm not ready to leave the people and the place that I am so obviously called too. It's clearer by the day that we're supposed to be here. That being said, in case you didn't know ...

We're Returning to Kenya?! Our family is coming back to Kenya for ANOTHER YEAR starting in July 2013. My best friend and older brother Nick will stay in the states to start his college adventure at some unknown place and the rest of us will return to doing what we know how to do. Love God's Kenyan family in Kisumu. Ministry is painful but oh, so rewarding. I am privileged to work with these people alongside my insane family and our missionary team here in Kisumu. I wouldn't trade this High School experience for anything else in the world.
