When I arrived just before services began, I found the brethren eating breakfast which consisted of sliced bread and tea. They were so happy to be there.
Today (day two of the Feast) Nehemiah and I traveled to the Great Rift Valley, and kept it with the Ngopen Congregation. They also were very excited to attend.
Thanks to you donors, they served a very nutritional lunch after services today consisting of rice, beans, and cabbage. They thank you from the bottom of their hearts for your support.)
As a treat, we gave everyone an orange, and they loved it (especially the children.)
Yes, they love oranges and it is a good source of vitamin C. But for our Kenya brethren they are a luxury and can rarely afford them.
Our budget for all 9 groups for the entire 8 day Feast totaled $4,355. When you calculate that with the 876 brethren attending, that’s $4.97 per person for food for the entire 8 days. And that calculates to 62 cents per person per day.
Cleaning Dust Off [Ngopen area has gone 5 months without rain]. When we arrived we were completely covered in dust from the dry dirt road.
