I apologize for not having posted any information recently. I have been home in the States but very caught up in what has been happening in Kenya. On December 20th I made a last minute decision to fly home for a brief visit and flew out of Nairobi on the 27th just barely missing the repercussions of the election. Now I'm trying to decide when to return. The country seems to be calming down, but I get conflicting reports from different sources. Of course no one knows what might happen next.

Most of the Challenge Farm kids are back from holiday break; everyone there is fine as the Farm had stocked up on food and other supplies. However, Grace, the Kenyan director, has not yet returned from holiday. She is of the Kikuyu tribe which is in some danger as it is the same as that of the re-elected president. Please pray that she can soon safely travel back to Challenge Farm as it relies heavily on her guidance. Also pray that the political crisis in Kenya will be resolved so that the country can return to normalcy.
