The kids here in Kenya aren't any different than kids in America.... when they get together at a camp they don't get enough sleep and it was evident today as I peered into their tired little faces.... these teenagers were a little sulky....so my work was cut out for me.... But after a verse or two of my Hip Hop tune Under my feet we had the place rockin'
A missionary who lives here in Eldoret came today and she is an amazing ventriloquist...There are many of the kids who think her turtle can talk....and not just the young ones! I am looking forward to working with her the next few days.
My role switches somewhat tomorrow since | am one of the featured speakers. I have had the benefit of hearing the other speakers so I have an idea of what is appropriate and what is not ....The speak very frankly with these kids ...so I will do it as well.
Good news on the luggage front ....I now have it....I may never take clean underwear and deodorant for granted again....
So....please pray for wisdom as I share some thoughts we these kids... I know God will reveal clearly which stories I am to share. Also pray for rest for the kids!

Your posts are very moving John. I don't think we, as a country, really realize how much fun can be had without the material things we take for granted in our country. We have a lot to learn!
