Monkeys!!

We went to this park called the arboretum today and there were MONKEYS there!! They came right up to us and took our snacks that we were feeding them. The Kenyans say they are as common as our PSU squirrels and they were surprised that we didnt have monkeys haha.

We had worship and quiet time and then team planning. Last night was the first nav night that we attended. It was in a dorm room and we got to meet the students,play some fun games (which I will be bringing back to the USA :) ) And then we broke into small groups which will be our bible studies. Hiliary and I will be leading about 6 girls in a study of basic Christian beliefs. I am excited because most of these girls have never been in a strictly girls study so it will be a good chance for us to grow closer as Women of God. From my experience at PSU, having a group of godly women around me, studying the word with me , struggling with me,rejoicing with me, and praying for me has made a world of a difference in my walk with God. I think you know who you are... so thanks ladies.

Today at 4 I am having my first one on one with Gloria and I amreally looking forward to talking with her and getting to know her better. We might even go to a gospel concert (sweet right?)

We are going on a safari walk where Naftali ( the main staff person here in Nairobi) said we might get to pet a cheetah...hmmm we'll see :/

Something random...Greg and I started writing a song about Kenya that we hope to sing for you guys when we come back. I know its only like day 5 but we already had a lot to write about haha.

It would be awesome if you guys could pray for me for continued rest and time alone with the Lord. With so much going on I have felt very overwhelmed and tired at times in the past few days. I know that this is how the rest of the summer is going to be so I could really use the prayer.

I miss you all so much and it means a lot that you are even reading this blog and keeping up with my summer.
