First Day in Kibera for Youth Group

We all made it to Kenya safe and with luggage and exhausted!

Today was our first day in Kibera with 25 person youth team that arrived yesterday. They spent the day visiting the kids in New Hope Primary School, walking about Kibera and starting to build relationships with kids. The team was amazing and we had to drag them back to the bus at the end of the day. And then enjoyed some Ethiopian food! (which all the picky teenage kids loved)

Pray for our team as they put on a day camp for K-5th grade tomorrow, Sunday School and Youth Services on Sunday and Penda Youth Camp for 6th-8th grade next Monday-Thursday!

The team includes:
Robin, Chase and Avery Hawthorne
Amy and Bo Phillips
Steve and Mallory Stone
Parker Franklin
Rachel Bergmann
Matthan Myers
Sam Egliht
Sarah Fountain
Madeline Broyles
Alyssa, Brittany and Wendy Smith
EC Nolley
Haley Glover
McKayla Riley
Taylor Koch
Taylor Gentry
Brenna Degroot
