ZURICH TO NAIROBI

Praise God for another great day of traveling!

We had a smooth transition through security and a nice flight. Tyler will write later about the overwhelming awe we experienced as we flu over Egypt and talked about the Biblical accounts that took place there. We landed in Nairobi 10 minutes early after our 8 hour flight and were presently surprised to meet Dan Okall waiting for us at the end of the jet bridge. He was with his friend Edward who works Customs in the airport. Edward gave us the VIP treatment and we went through customs without so much as one person looking in any of our bags. What a blessing. We then traveled by van through the city to our hotel - the Mayfield Guest House. We had the privilege to meet and spend time with many of Dan's cousins from the village who now work in Nairobi to support the village back home. It was humbling for us as they shared there gratitude to our team. Now after a quick dinner we are all heading to bed to get rest for our big drive tomorrow to the village.

It is good to finally be here in Kenya!

  1. Thank you so much Bill for the posts, very encouraging for us back in the US to hear how God has met every need. From kind gate/airline agents to friends in customs. Wow our God is so good. Praying for the long bus ride to the village. Sleep well tonight.

  2. You're in Kenya! (finally, huh?) Glad you enjoyed Zurich. One (of many) prayers for the next leg of the journey is that you get to (safely, yes, I'm a mom) see some wildlife on the drive to the village!
