Wow!
Today was the first day I could make a comparison to our Uganda trips.
We gave away 1600 nets and doctors and dentists treated 850 people.

After that, the comparison stops. Kenya has had crowds but most everyone leaves with nets and/or medicine. We handed out nets to 3 schools. We watched the kids mesmerized by Sean’s dance moves for over an hour. There were many kids with skin diseases that were treated. Many a tooth was extracted by our dentist. Eye issues were prevalent and the medicine and glasses had a huge impact.
Today saw some really poor in the area get help for free. We saw our first tantrum from a 2 year old. I had never seen any child in Africa have a tantrum. The people are happy and thankful and one older man wanted to give a special thanks to all the Americans that helped. There were a lot of sick babies and some serious and the medicine helped.
Sean preached the Gospel and had the audience listening and helping the interpreter say the words Sean was using. The people are attentive to the Word which is critical. We have been in areas that distort the Gospel and for example say the Jesus is not God but just a prophet and this is coming from Bible churches.
There were so many needing a dentist we ran out of Novocain. I find the people honest and friendly. They are thankful and gracious. There is not cutting in line or arguing. The kids are everywhere and they are all so well behaved. Kenya has a richness that is hard to describe. It is clear why God called us here.
