January 2012
Laura Muema and Erica today in Nairobi
We are excited to begin 2012 with several new ministry initiatives with the Guardians of Hope, Urban outreach ministry and the CBM North East Province program. Today, we were laying out plans with our project officer, Laura Muema, as we prepare for an upcoming conference and curriculum development for CBM's self help group projects in Kenya.
Please remember us in prayer as we work together over the coming months to both strengthen the existing self help groups, and expand this ministry. We are looking forward to a conference on the importance of sisterhood in two weeks time, as we gather representatives from urban and rural self help groups to share how they have experienced the power of women helping women in their contexts. We are glad that a group of four women from New Minas Baptist Church, Nova Scotia, will be joining us for this time of training and encouragement.
Maureen and Wayne Morgan
Yesterday, we helped the Morgan family move into their new home at the Shade Language School in the beautiful tea hills above Nairobi. The Morgans have jumped right into life in Kenya, with Wayne bravely driving along the narrow and crowded roads from his first day -- please remember them in prayer this weekend as they move their son Sean and friend Jenny into University here in Kenya.

Earlier this week, we had some fun showing our new team mates, the Morgan family, around Nairobi. On one of the mornings, we stopped in to visit the Giraffe Centre in Karen. Here are a few fun photos from our visit. You can follow along with Morgan's journey at their blog at:

Meet the Morgans
New Year's Day Breakfast
This past Sunday, we were delighted to welcome our new CBM team mates, Wayne and Maureen Morgan, two of their sons, Sean & Michael, and their friend Jenny. The Morgan's will be serving with CBM in Kenya facilitating integral mission with the ACC&S. We are so thankful that they arrived without any trouble and that they are settling in well.
