Schooled in the kitchen

We were schooled in Kenyan culinary arts today! Peeling, chopping and shredding take on new meaning when cooking Kenyan style with large knives outside over an open flame. Rachel Ray could take a few tips from our talented teachers. We truly experienced the "Joy of Cooking" with our beautiful warm, kind and extremely patient Kenyan friends, Janet and JoAnn. While we were preparing lunch for the group the rest of the team were making new friends with the Neema and Shimo girls playing frisbee, kickball and Kenyan style hide-n-seek. After play work began. All were impressed with our Kenyan friend's mutual respect, discipline and extreme professionalism which resulted in 70 unique beaded necklaces and over 15 beautifully sewn shoulder strap bags. All that has been invested in these girls over the years is very obvious and extremely rewarding to observe. Our guys spent the day working hard at the construction site of the new Neema girls school house. The evening ended with an amazing meal made by Ashley, Daniel's wife, who skillfully handled feeding a crew our size while dealing with a 7 hour power outage. Good day! May God be praised and may He receive all the glory.

Thanks for your prayers.

Blessings,

Eileen and Melinda (for the team)
