Wrapping up October and our first month in Kenya

 We have had a pretty good week here in Kapsowar. Here are a few pics to enjoy. Above is one of Layna's favorite places to hang out. It's just outside our back door. She enjoys going up and down the steps or just sitting with her lovey and relaxing :).

 Above is a picture of Braelyn, Eunice(on the left, our house helper), and Edna on the right who is Eunice's sister and also a house helper for all the families on the station. Edna has a reputation for being the best cook around. She can make tortillas, homemade bread, pumpkin & banana bread, and probably lots more. So, she came over this past week to help teach Eunice and I how she makes tortillas here. Braelyn LOVES helping out in the kitchen. She has become quite the cook since we are doing so much baking and cooking here.

 Here are a few pics from a walk we took yesterday (saturday) to Rorock. There is a church plant there that meets at a school. We have been wanting to visit the church, so we just walked there to make sure we knew where it was and how long it took us to get there. With two whiny girls, it took about 25 minutes!! We were hoping to visit there this morning but it rained a lot last night and it is a dirt road, so maybe next week. I enjoyed getting outside the station and seeing a little more of the countryside.

 And we found a little friend on our way back :). The girls thought he was pretty cute.

So, overall, we have had a good week here in Kapsowar. I am learning that cooking two meals in one day really helps give me a break from having to think about meal planning all the time. We had pretty weather most of the week so the girls and I took a few walks outside. I shopped at the open market by myself on Friday. I will do another post sometime about food and what kind of things we eat around here. We got a lot of cards in the mail this week, which was really fun. Thanks to all of you who sent them. Aaron was able to go to the community outreach clinic on Thursday and he really enjoyed that. It was about a 45 minute drive from Kapsowar and they saw a lot of people there. He really enjoys getting out into the community. We have had power more consistently this week, which has been nice. Thank you all for supporting us and keeping up with our family. We really appreciate your prayers and support.

Please pray for me as I might have an opportunity to lead or co-lead a bible study with nursing students. Still trying to figure it out right now, but pray I would have wisdom with that.

Also, please pray for Layna. She has had a bad cough for almost two weeks now. Please pray it would go away soon. She usually wakes up 2 or 3 times each night with coughing fits. So we haven't been sleeping well in our house.

Also, please continue to pray for wisdom with ministry opportunities and a church home.

Thank you for joining with us in this ministry!
