Branch Pres. Odero's children!

 This was our best day....we love the Kenya children!  They are so happy to see Masungoo's (swahili for white people).  They always wave to us as we drive by and we love to give them attention. 

After being here, slaving away in the office .... trying to learn our job, we finally headed out to West Kenya, specifically, Kizumu, Busia, Katili and Eldoret for the last week.  Our intent was to finally get "hands-on" approach to our purpose as missionaries for LDS
Charities.  We visited all the branch presidents (5), listened to their various needs.  The following pictures will tell the story of our week in the "bush"; by the way if you think the bush is Simba out in the jungle, it isn't.....its considered "up country" where the very poor live on the wide open spaces, surviving in the most primative conditions we have ever experienced.   Our impression of the saints here is how their faith/belief is so strong to deal with the adversities of being so isolated, having the bear minimum of support - and yet its the center of their lives, they are trying to be so obedient and righteous, we have so much to learn!
