WHAT'S NEW IN KENYA

All students in Rossholme School in Kiambu slum in Nairobi are on break now ‘til the 2025 school year begins in January. Many do not have much to eat – and many are playing in garbage in the streets and alleys. Please pray for their health and safety ‘til they are back in school. And please see www.AFLIK.org to see the ways you can help the 500 children at the school.
WHO WE ARE

We are self-supported missioners – and we thank the families who rented our Roton Point unit and our home. They made it possible for us to spend our 19th summer living with local people in Kenya.

We visited students in schools in five different regions, and we spent time with young people that we, and many of our friends and family members, have helped to go to colleges and universities. Most of them have good jobs - and they are helping their children, the next generation, to have better lives.

WHAT ELSE IS NEW

The Christmas/Holiday Gift Show at Rowayton Arts Center is open now ‘til Christmas Eve. Marilyn has two framed photos hanging there – one of Greens Ledge Light and the other of a Mama elephant protecting her two-week-old baby. She also has two unframed photos there in a rack – as well as her note cards with photos she took in Kenya, Rome, Tivoli, Dubrovnik and Korcula.

Please let Marilyn know if you’d like her to make note cards with your photos – and also if you’d like to purchase jewelry or other craft items made by women in Kenya.
