Hello my few and faithful blog readers! Just wanted to show a few more pics and let you know where we are in the situation. (Picking beans again)
Mark and I, after broken hours of discussion and prayer, decided to scrounge up $500 dollars (40,000 Kenyan shillings) and give the money to AMCC. Part of the money was from Bloom, my sending church in Denver, and the rest was left over from a benefit concert Mark put on a few months ago. (A bridge we cross to get to electricity, 30 min hike)
We're still trying to hang on to the $900 that Mark and I set aside to help start a sustainable food project. This money came from Bloom, Grace World Outreach (home church in Oklahoma!) and many other much appreciated friends and families.
We should be alright on food for about 6 weeks or so now, but we really need to get crackin on that project. We're thinkin chickens! How fun would that be!?
If you guys have any suggestions, we're all ears. Please pray for us to do the right project. And if that's chickens, pray they won't die, cause I hear chickens like to do that a lot. I hope to be writing another update Friday. Till then...

THE LORD IS GOOD!!!
Glad to hear that you have been able to make it a few weeks longer bud! We have a check or two for you here at the house, so hopefully that will get you by even longer!
ReplyDeleteIf you decide to go with chickens, I will toss in a deep fryer! Lets get these people Americanized already!!!
How great for you, Nick!! I wish I was there. Your chickens will be just fine - can you post a video on here?? I'm thinking of you and wishing all of you the best. xoxo, Cindy
