Good news

From Jean on 7.7

Good evening, better news- we've been praying for the 6 shepherds who never came home after their 100 + cattle were stolen. Yesterday Valentina's 10yr old son Laki crawled home - WOW!!!!!. He was severely beaten especially scrawny legs left in the bush over 30kms away- he made it painfully home.
The joy mixed with overwhelming concern sprang from Valentina's face and voice and she relayed her good news.

Pray for healing inside and outside for the families affected. A sign of relief has settled here but there lingers sadness.

The other good news, after almost a year, we can finally come out of our tents, the roof is done! we will move our stuff in this weekend just in time.

  2. Yeah we are both overjoyed and amazed for Lakai return. It is so rare for these raids to have an outcome that brings joy.
    Will post some photos of us with our feet up inside!
