This morning at 10am I boarded a mini-bus in Homa Bay... after four hours of sitting crammed against a window (thank God I was by a window), strange smells eminating from I don't know where, angry yelling, the bus driver running away from police and stopping to ask for directions... I arrived in Kisumu! And my suitcase was still on top of the bus! I came to Kisumu to learn more about Agape Counseling Center and the Kisumu branch of the Kenya Association of Professional Counsellors. Simon Onyango is the founder of Agape and is a senior facilitator at KAPC. I've spent the day visiting the campus (pictured above) and chatting with Simon and his family. He has a four year old daughter, Stephanie, who is completely fascinated by my white skin and can't stop touching my hands and staring at me. She is so funny! The only English she knows is the song "I'm a Little Teapot." Adorable. I will be attending a counseling training that Simon will be facilitating over the next fe
w days.

This makes me water up. I'm so moved, and so stoked you're discovering and consulting with these people and organizations and all of it! I'm floored at our generous god who orchestrates all our random pieces in such harmony. Your training, your skills, these relationships are all meeting in such a smooth way, smooth timing. So kickass. I love you!
