This nice little kitchen in our faculty flat is quite sufficient. Even though there is no hot water in the kitchen, there is a hot pot for quickly boiling water. Not everything on the stove works, but it is OK for us. Note the large aluminum container on the right-hand side of the counter. This is our provided water filtering unit. It is great to have as we filter nearly all of our water. This week Judy finished the draft for the Freedom for Girls pamphlet. This project is moving along nicely. We are up in Nairobi just now (Thursday) waiting for a pick up by a HEART vehicle.
This past Wednesday Judy went to a boys' home (Hidaya) along with Phyllis Masso, the director. It was quite an experience! It is out in the country and in addition to driving through herds of animals, we got stuck in the mud -- four-wheel-drive with mud flying got us out of there. The road was every bit as rough as Sani Pass (w/o the drop offs). We're thinking cars don't last very long here. Phyllis is an amazing woman!
The boys at this home were all once street children. It has been organized long enough that a couple of their boys have now graduated from college. Of course it isn't all a success story, but is an amazing ministry. They offered to have us stay for dinner. They were having spaghetti noodles covered with chopped boiled goat liver and vegetables. Unfortunately we didn't have time as Judy would have liked to at least tasted the dish.
