Home!

We are finally home! I cried when we entered Kisumu, mostly because of relief and because it felt like it had been so long since we had been home. OK, I also cried for 3 days at night in Nairobi and struggled being away from our family. Ever since I was a little girl I always grieved the end of something good. Wether it was a vacation, or holiday time with family I always remember grieving a bit. Being pregnant and jet lagged added to this grief over the end of furlough.It was a hard adjustment back even rougher than our first time but the Lord was so faithful to walk me through it and help me adjust. And now that we are home it is ever so sweet! We are still unpacking and adjusting to the heat though we are currently having cooler weather! Yea! I thought getting back to the way of living here would be harder having enjoyed so many comforts of America and not having to worry about mosquitoes and nets and so much more but it feels a bit like riding a bike. Nets go down, rooms get sprayed, fans go on, KG gets wiped down when going out at night. :) It's familiar and feels normal. What grace! We have also enjoyed seeing so many of our dear friends here that we love and praise God for the beautiful community and support we have here. Let the ministry begin! Peg for The P4

So good to hear such a wonderful report on how you guys are doing. It was such a blessing seeing you and catching up but more of a blessing is to hear how you are back where you belong right now. It is funny how being in your element brings out the best in you. You guys are definitely in your element there and God is using you mightily. Blessings and love to the P4

Happy New Year!
