Tumaini Evangelistic Pre & Primary School has finished the first semester of our 2nd year in full operation. When I think about what I want to tell people, I always start to brag on our ministry and our students. So I am sorry but I am going to do it again. Obed reading to the…

Men’s day at Kiruani TAG church
So, this last Sunday was Men’s day at Kiruani TAG. It seems the men were jealous the women got their own day, so they wanted one too (don’t know that just assuming). The head teacher, Fredy, at the school was delivering the sermon and I had to do all the typing and printing for the…
Working on my landscape photography
Side Note for those that asked: The road was better when I went out last Monday afternoon but was under water again this morning as I came in. Fortunately I had more time to prep for it so I took my shoes and socks off and rolled up my pants so I am not squishing…

Before I get started with this week’s blog, I want to tell you about my trip into town today so I could post it. Our rainy season is finally here a bit late but here. So it rained a couple of nights in a row which means I have swept bags full of dead termite…

International Women’s Day at Kiruani TAG Church
It is Sunday morning in Kiruani TAG church, and I walk up to the church building to several kids exploding forth from their Sunday School area to greet me with a chittering chant of “Steve, Steve, Steve…” I give each of them a hug or fist bump in greeting while trying to remember everyone’s name…
My name is Steve-get used to it! Sorry but not sorry
I decided to save this story for a week so Doug and Frank can get home and forget all about checking my blog regularly before I tell it. There is something you may need to get used to or accept if you come to visit our school. The kids in our village area think all…
