ZONE ACTIVITY

November 4, 2013

IMPALA SANCTUARY
On Preparation Day after laundry and cleaning 
we had a Zone Activity with the 
6 Elders and 2 Sisters. 
First we went to Impala Sanctuary.
 Sister Eises and Sistrer Moon in a dry-dock row boat.
Eder Lewis and Sister Eises
 Elder Chingudzi, Sister Namaguya, Elder Jackson
(I was more interested in them than the animals)
LEOPARD
 Most of the animals here are caged and after being on
Safari game drives this had lost its appeal -
more so than the other times we have been here.
 HARTEBEEST
 DIK DIK
 OSTRICHES
 CAPE BUFFALO
 GUINEA FOWL
 CHEETAH
 MALE LIONS

These are animals that roam free here.

We walked back in the Sanctuary further than we have before
and found a beautiful lodge.

Gospel of Jesus Christ!!

ELDER LEWIS' BIRTHDAY

November 3, 2013
We arrived in Kisumu from Busia just as the 
Elders and Sister were preparing for a lesson.
Then they were going to get some food items from their
apartments to make chapati and eggs. 
I said they could come to our apartment to make them
(NOT realizing it would be LATE when they finished).
Some of the Elders were in  he Living room watching a Church 
video they had not seen.
Elder Nyambita, Elder Chingudzi, Elder Lytle, Elder Elliott
from Busia. We brought them here for an activity tomorrow
ans then go to Eldoret on Tuesday for Zone Conference.
Sister Namugaya and Elder Lewis mixing the chapati.

Elder Jackson and Sister Namugaya 
rolling and making the chapati balls.
Elder Lytle right where he can help if needed -
whether physically or with what he knows.
More chopping, grating, and slicing!!

Finally time to start for the first cooking!!

entertaining us with hymns and more.
After eating the chapatis and eggs (like omelets)
it was time for the cake and ice cream.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY 21 YEARS!!
