July 29th 5:30pm Kenya Time

Hello Again....our work day is over and we are ready for showers and dinner. We went to the Open Arms Village today and set-up for the medical clinic tomorrow. Temporary tents, cubicals, a pharmacy, prayer tent, intake, etc. We took a walk of the property to see the full vision for this amazing village, including the school, bunk houses for the orphans, medical and dental care facility and the dairy and garden. Truly a self sufficient concept in the making. The children ariived home from school so we were able to play with them after our peanut butter and jelly sandwich lunch. They are adorable and love to run in to your arms for hugs! We danced with them to African music, we played with balloons with them and spun kids around in circles til we wanted to throw-up! But the giggles and smiles keep you going one more time! Tonight we are going to the streets of Eldoret to feed the street kids. I know this will be difficult for each of us to witness, but going with a heart full of love for them will ease the discomfort, I am sure! Tomorrow we will begin the medical clinic and expect about 200 people the first day, 300 the second day, 400 the 3rd day and more than we can handle the last day. After the first day, the word spreads through the villages and people walk miles to get to the clinic. So by the last day, there are many from very far distances! Shane, Hunter, Karleigh, Spencer, Brandt and I are all feeling strong and rested, so thank you for praying for us and keeping us strong through prayers! We know that God is working here with us and will hope to send photos tomorrow morning so that you all can see the amazing people of Kenya and how God is serving this part of the world in a mighty way! I can't describe the simple joy and happiness that the Kenyan's express with their smiles. As they walk miles, carrying heavy loads, along dirt roads, with cars driving by them leaving inches between them and the car....it is scary, really, but they don't flinch, they turn and smile and wave! It inspires us to consider how we would react in those moments and think about a different reaction the next time we are faced with a driver cutting us off! Anyway, all is well here in Kenya and we are loving the opportunity God has given us to serve him here! Keep the prayers coming and please consider leaving a comment...we will be able to read them each day now...and as I said, I hope to up load some photos tomorrow morning! Until then, Blessings from "The Vroman's plus one!"
