Camp has been AMAZING this week! I have been so surprised by all of the joy that the little kids bring! I have been working with Suswas (7 year old girls) and they are definitely the cutest kids at camp! One of them is from Korea...she LOVES Hello Kitty. Pretty much every article of clothing she owns is HK...how fitting that she is in mine and Jen's cabin! She also just started learning English in October...so she still doesn't understand everything...like: gold rocks, excited, sink, shoot, and I'm still adding to the list. All of our girls are very excited and interested in the story of Jesus. They are a lot different from the kids last week (missionary kids). These kids don't have as much "Sunday School" knowledge, so it's like getting to teach them for the very first time, which is exciting! Also, one of our girl's moms baked Chocolate Chip cookies for our cabin and brought them the very first day! For all of you Wheeler County people...they tasted JUST LIKE Mrs. Couey's! I was SO excited to have sweets that actually have sugar in them! haha. Kenyans don't really use sugar.
Tomorrow, we are packing up camp and going into Nairobi. We will be working there for a week and then going to Western Kenya and then to Uganda to RAFT THE NILE!! Then we will come back to Lukenya for three more weeks of Camp!!
I love you all! Hope everyone is having an amazing summer!
