The following message is from Opal Hardgrove who is with the New Ministry and Mentorship
Development at MTW:

Hope you are all well. I just returned from Kenya Friday. I met with the Makuku's and they are looking forward to you all coming over. We talked a little about what you all would be doing and here are some of his thoughts.
1. Be in very good physical shape: come prepared for hard labor. We are in the process of building a new girls home in the Gong Hills so there will be some manual labor!!!! Sounds fun huh?
2. Please prepare yourself to eat the food there. In the past there have been issues with people not eating the food. This can be a little culturally inappropriate so please be prepared to eat just a little. Food is very important to the folks there and when they see us picking at their food it is a little disheartening.
3. Pray pray pray. You will be heading into an area that is very dark spirtually and he would like for you all to understand and begin practicing regular and fervent prayer.

So for those of you who wanted some more prayer requests for me there they are. I need to find time to continue to go to the gym, start preparing my body for the food, and continue to be strong in my prayer life. Thanks for the prayers! =)
