Kenya trip

Friends,

This Thursday afternoon I leave for eleven days to Kenya. I am going with a good friend, Jason Anderson, who started an orphanage outside of Nairobi about three years ago. If you want to look it up, check out http://www.kenyamatters.org

We’ll be doing some pastoral stuff and worship leadership as well as spending lots of time with the orphans at the orphanage as well as orphans they help support who live in host homes. Our primary purpose is do to some administration and leadership stuff connected with the orphanage.

In addition, I found out yesterday that I have a case of the shingles. SO – I am asking for prayer for my family, for safety in travel, for health, and that our time is of much value to someone. I’ve included our itinerary below.

Grace & Peace,
randy
