We have a few moments to blog so I thought we would recount on our journey to Oasis of Hope drop-in center. When we arrived at the camp we were greeted by about 130 street kids whose faces were gleaming with joy and excitement from seeing the mzungus(white people). After their warm welcome of singing and rapping we divided them up into 6 color-coordinated groups and split up to learn their names and play games. A crowd favorite is definitely "chase the mzungu". We decorated the shirts then the orange team taught a bible story and organized a game for the kids. It was so fun hanging out with all the Kenyan children, they are so lovable! It was hard to leave when they were hanging on us, holding our hands, and squeezing us tight but we can't wait to go back tomorrow! We have to get ready for the "Mercy kids" to come over for a party we're hosting so we'll blog ya later!(sew punny)

Just know we are all praying for you and the children in Africa. You will make a difference in their country and ours. "Well done good and faithful servants."
