Kenya: The Fever

Our whole team has come down with a fever bad, and there is no hope in getting over it. We have come to accept our fate along with everyone here at the AGC Baby Center, we have an incurable baby fever. It didn't help our cause when we held three of the babies here, Paul, Isaiah, and Abigail. Their sweet faces reminded us again what a great work God is doing here. Pictures will come later. God bless.

Kenya: Heading Out

I sit at Ohare airport with 13 others waiting on our first flight to London. It is exciting to see 9 first-timers on this trip. Tracy Bussard and her daughter Kaylyn, Peter and Tina Carpenter, Abigail Carpenter, Stephanie Wong, Jodi Polhemus and Brent and Joan High round out the first-timers. Bernie and Bev Lambright, Margie Helmuth and Jolinda and I make up the rest of our team. We are excited to bring new faces to the baby center. I cannot wait to watch them catch the baby center "fever".

The last two weeks has been emotional to say the least for me and my family. The sudden loss of my brothers wife at 39 is hard to understand. What I do know is God is faithful and he loves us. He also wants us to keep moving forward even when we hurt. That is why we will continue to "press on". I thank you all for the love and support you have shown my family. God bless!

These pictures were taken of Margret by Jolinda Lengacher when in Kenya in September 2008 for the dedication of the baby center. She loves to dress up in cute little dresses! Margie is 2 1/2 years old.

It is finished!

Although there will always be more touch-ups, repairs, updates to do on the baby center, it was a blessing to dedicate the building and say "It is finished!". Now our time and funding can go more directly to the babies who call this building home. They are the reason we have worked so hard to finish this project. And they are the reason we all will continue to bring teams to Kenya to hold, feed and love them! As well as do any needed repairs to the building. Below is several views of the Africa Gospel Church Baby Center as well as the surrounding area.

Playing Outside

After almost a week of rain it was so nice to be able to spend some time with the babies outside.
