Safari Njema!

Sarah and I are now back in Nairobi after a three-month home assignment in the U.S. We shared about our ministry in 49 locations, in 11 states on 67 occasions. A big shout of “thanks” to the following districts for welcoming us to share in their churches: Northeastern Indiana, Upstate New York, Metro New York, New England, Maine, Philadelphia, Mid-Atlantic, Virginia, North Carolina, Arizona, and Chicago Central. I thought I would share with you all a few of the photos from this journey. In addition to that, we had some time here and there to spend with family and friends and to see some of the beautiful and interesting sights along the way. As I reflect on these past three months, I am grateful, to be part of a “mission-oriented” church, for family and friends, for the beauty of God’s creation, for the wonderful people we met along the way, and most of all for the abundant life we have in Jesus Christ, our Lord. Enjoy the pics!
