Time is so limited in the Internet Cafe - haven't had much opportunity to write!
We are all having a remarkable time - it's so hard to put into words and pictures don't even capture it! Every day has been quite the memorable adventure though. We visited a remote Maasai parish on Sunday, actually a parish with four preaching points all under construction and no money to finish. We were warmly welcomed though and witnessed an amazing worship service at one of the churches and then took a very memorable and slightly hairy trip to see the other 3 churches. Saw lots of the grass huts etc. and people with nothing much but warm hearts faces filled with joy and they were so friendly and giving. Today we visited some high schools and colleges - went into the jungle hills east of Kilmanjaro. Absolutely beautiful and lush vegetation everywhere. Hadn't seen the mountain \Kilmanjaro until this afternoon returning home when the clouds cleared after a heavy rain. Tomorrow we'll head out for Safari so may not have an opportunity to get to a computer until sometime Saturday but we're looking forward to that adventure. Discovered today that I did not bring the right equipment for my camera but fortunately the other Sheridan folks are much better photographers than I am anyway! Love to family and friends!

It sounds amazing as does the entire trip! You are in my prayers and I am slightly envious of the warm weather. Sigh.
Have a wonderful and safe journey.
