Hey Everyone!
For those of you who don’t know, I am taking a trip to Kenya, Africa this summer and staying with some friends there. I will be working in a hospital doing what I can to help, not sure exactly what that will entail, but I’ll find out when I get there! There are also outreach clinics that some of the missionaries go on to bring medical care to displaced Kenyans living in tents in the bush. I will be there for three weeks and would appreciate your thoughts and prayers as I prepare to leave. Especially your prayers!!! I hope to have the chance to share my faith and the love of Jesus with those I come into contact with and am really looking forward to getting out of my comfort zone and seeing a different part of the world. I will try and keep my blog updated and keep in contact through facebook and e-mail.
The hospital I will be working at was built by and is run by CURE International. They do amazing, life-changing surgeries on children with orthopedic illnesses and defects. Children who have never run and played in the sun are undergoing dramatic surgery that will allow them to be like any other normal kid. Some of these are nutrition related issues and birth defects that cripple these children for life but with a “simple” surgery, they can be fixed. Again, I would really appreciate your prayers and if you want to know more please feel free to e-mail, facebook, call, send a homing pigeon, pony express, or telegram and I would be happy to tell you more or answer any questions. God bless!
