Go Slow Day…

All experiencing jetlag today and were on a “go-slow”. We all enjoyed a late breakfast at the orphanage with Mary, Lilian and 3 other volunteers: Helen, Janelle and Amos, before going on a tour of the orphanages. Each trip here there is a new project completed and new improvements seen. The school now boasts new classrooms for the older grades, new accommodation for volunteers are in progress at MIA Nyota, and the older girls at MIA 1 now have “bigger girls” beds (no longer in bunks) in a room with an ensuite, which they love. Set off to Nakuru for supplies for ourselves and most importantly to pick up the medical supplies that Lyle had previously ordered online prior to our arrival. However, there were a number of medications that had not arrived yet, so another trip to Nakuru would need to be arranged for tomorrow, which the team did not mind. Back at our mud hut there still was no hotwater for showers but this was soon fixed by the time we retired o bed :-) Tonight we all experienced sharing in the children’s family worship time, which is a real treat! Hearing all those beautiful voices singing with gusto, just lifts our spirits, no matter how jet-lagged we feel. All are missing “Uncle Lion” (Lyle Burgoyne) and we had many a question of “why we didn’t bring him with us?” Too tired tonight to prepare an evening meal, but happy for the hot shower :D
