welcome Mama Detty-Mama Eliz.arrives in Australia

We are happy to welcome Mama Detty to Kenya. Detty arrived on January 14 with Candice, right on time from the Easy Coach Bus. She has done well so far, no jet lag, and has already met the kids at the Friday come together, where they welcomed her with songs and poems. May God use you in a mighty way,here at Mercy Home.
It was Candice's 19th Birthday, so after the music, they sang a wonderful and loud Happy Birthday. It was a special day for Candice, and as a team we wish her a great year....her first as an adult, officially.
By Monday, all of our broilers will be sold, as another restaurant,one of our favourites, wants the rest of our broilers. We are happy about this,because it is after Christmas, and people just don't have so much in the way of finances.
I'm at the library with two of our Standard 7 students, two that I promised would come to the Kitale library(in December)but better late than NEVER! A promise is a promise taken seriously, here.(or anywhere, for that matter)
Tomorrow will be Detty's first Sunday at the Mercy Family Church, so I imagine that will be blogged by someone soon.
Nancy Miller has arrived safely in Australia, seeing her son, Jim, and his wife Claire, and her grandchildren, who she hasn't seen for 2 years, so God is good. We really miss your smile, Nancy, and your words of encouragement, but we know you will have a wonderful visit! God Bless You.
On a personal note, I want to thank everyone who has prayed for my ear to get better, it is finally feeling like it is slowly getting back to normal. Thanks be to God.
