Another Wonderful Week

Last Sat. we hosted 9 of the high school teachers for lunch and fellowship.  It was good to get to know them more.  One of the things in the library is 25 piece puzzles.  These are a challenge for most of the kids as they have never seen them before. So we decided to see how the teacher would be with these.  So for fun we made it a race. They paired up to work on one.  To our amazement they struggled with them as well.  But in that struggle they had fun as they all wanted to be first.  This Sat. we are having the academy and nursery kids over for lunch.  We will do the same with them.  Should be a good day.

I also had a chance to visit Kauka which is an outreach of PACE.  It is a nursery school for mostly Turkana children living in a more remote area about a 15 min. drive from where I am.  There is one teacher teaching up to 40 kids from age 3 – 11.  My church has supported this ministry for some time so it was good to go and touch base and spend time with kids.  There was even a child supporting Toronto and didn’t even know it.  This child also did not want to come near me.  This is common with more rural kids that don’t see white people often.  The teacher had to make her stand up and hold her hands in order for me to take the picture.  

I also spent more time with the nursery kids at PACE.  After reading a story I got my laptop (have I mentioned I am so glad to have it back) and played some kids music videos.  They love it.  Next week will be a cartoon move as they have requested. 

This Sat. we had the academy and nursery kids over for lunch.  We had a great time of good Kenyan food and wonderful fellowship.  We had them do puzzles again and they loved it.  It became a pretty big race of who could do it the fastest.  We had a great time.
