Kenya is not like America!


It doesn't take more than a second to notice the differences between Kenya and the US. From the moment we stepped out of the airport, the smells were different. The air was thinner. The people were dressed so colorfully. The streets were lined with grazing animals. People walk where they need to go. Cars drive on the wrong side of the road! It was a lot to take in, and all so beautiful in a different kind of way.
Life in Kenya seems so much simpler. Most Kenyan homes are small and made of sticks and mud. Their living space is the outdoors, where they spend all their time. But they work hard. They don't eat frozen dinners and do their laundry in machines. They scrub their clothes by hand and make every meal from scratch.

It was a privilege to visit this amazing country and experience the rich culture and the love of the Kenyan people.

    Thank you so much for sharing all of your stories from Kenya. I stopped by earlier, but didn't have a chance to read everything until now. It is so great to hear about your experience and all of the work God did in you and through you during your time there.
