“Lord, Not the Dirty River… I’ll Find a Clean One.” In 2 Kings 5:2-14 the story is told of Naaman, captain of the host of the King of Syria. He was a “mighty man” of valor, but he was a leper. One of the little servant girls, who took care of Naaman’s wife told her about a Prophet of...

Today, Bobby and I visited the Giraffe Center, near Nairobi. This will be one of our best times with the animals! These animals that God made, are not only incredible, but smart and beautiful! When we came to the Giraffe Center, we were given a small wooden cup of "giraffe pellets" (treats). The giraffes love...
Today, on a very remote mountain road, we happened upon a group of men singing and working. Kim and I stopped to see what they were doing. It seemed like an odd place for a group of men to be working like that. They were planting banana trees by the side of the road in...

They often must give birth in filthy, unsanitary conditions, without a doctor, relying on unwise old wives’ tales passed on from generation to generation.

We wanted to visit the home of Karen Blixen, who wrote the book "Out of Africa," which later was made into a movie in 1985. What an incredible movie it was, telling about this young woman who moved to Africa with her future husband "Baron" to start a business, but later ended up doing more...
“The righteous care for the needs of their animals...” - Proverbs 12:10 Bobo, one of our donkeys, may be new around here, but he sure is getting used to all of the attention! He always has someone wanting to pet him, someone always making sure he has water, and maybe some who even catch a...
“Withhold not good from them to whom it is due, when it is in the power of your hand to do it. Say not unto thy neighbor, go, and come again, and tomorrow I will give; when thou hast it by thee.” (Proverbs 3:27-28) The joy of helping the poor is beyond compare. If God...
