Sunday 28^th of Feb., 2010

Today we attended a church service in a small community at the base of Mount Kenya known  as Naro Muro, but to me it will always be known as “Newton’s Village”.  Why do I call it Newton’s Village ?  Why not Naro Muro,  small town or just  a dot on the  map?  Because somehow God has intertwined Brittneys life, Newtons life and the lives of so many others together  in such a way that none of  us will fully understand until we behold the king of glory face to face.  Looking back over the seven years I’ve been involved with Kenyarelief, a joyful smile comes to my face, recalling all the events that have taken place in such a short time span. I can remember asking God seven years ago, Why have I been asked to travel so far from home? I’m not a doctor, I’m not a Pastor, I’m not a teacher, What benefit could I possibly be to the team?  Even to this day I can’t positively  say I’ve been a benefit to any of the teams I have  been on, but I can say, they have positively been a benefit to me. How can I say that you may ask?  Because somehow God has intertwined Brittney’s life, Newtons life and the lives of so many others together  in such a way that none of  us will fully understand until we behold the king of glory face to face. 

Oh well,  Once again I Have detoured from my email about today’s events…The church service was about spiritual maturity and learning to be quick to listen and slow to speak.  Needless to say,  I tried to keep my trap shut on the long road trip from Newton’s Village back to Nairobi.. Guess what? I almost made it out of the church parking lot.

Please pray for us we leave for the Turkana District early in the morning.

Love to all…Joe Conn
