Joel to go back to Kenya and begin this clinic in his home village. And I think that thanks go to the one who heard the need and answered the call to make this possible. That is you, Mary!! It is very exciting to see this take place. We enjoyed our time with Fr. Joel over a meal. He simply radiates joy. Give him our regards.

It was a real leap of faith. Thank you members of Grace Episcopal Church, Cullaman. I can't forget that Friday night. You are awesome people. Thanks to all who responded to the call from Macedonia, either through prayer, donation or physical presence at the events. Thank you St.Luke's Episcopal Church for coming along at the very right time. Above all praise and honor to you Our God, for making this possible! Amen.

Have you ever imagined that out of a morsel of bread, came a never ending jar of meal for three and a half years? (I Kings 17:13-16). May the Good Lord continue to fill your jar daily as you save lives of Ngunya residents. Amen. It’s in deed amazing, what God can do with little things!

Be able to be in the role of accepting support, maybe even ask for it. Be willing to be authentic, mess and all. Know that God is working through it with you and through our support system. All can be much easier to say and to know but very hard to do and feel. We are fortunate to know that Easter morning does come and just like the women who came into the tomb that morning, it still can be overwhelming. Love to you.

Tonight at our Maundy Thursday service, I felt especially aware of the lovely people in the world who suffer great hardship. Your words about Seline & Joel are especially moving for me. I, along with Caroline, would love to meet Joel when he is in Alabama. I am so happy to make a small donation for the building of the Ngunya Clinic. Blessings & love to you this Holy Week & Easter. Sandra Mary,

And what a tragic story in Seline. I pray that out of that will come a clinic for their village. Is Joel the friend who will be traveling with you to Bremen? I would love to meet him.
