October will be the month of traveling! Im so excited to get out of the city for a little while. Next week I'll be traveling to Uganda to take part in Passion World Tour Kampala. Louie, Chris Tomlin ya know all those guys are coming over. The last time this took place in 2008 there was about 12,000 people there so I'm sure there will be even more this time.
I'm really excited to get to see all the students who go to school in Tanzania. I have missed them all so much and looking forward to seeing some familiar faces.
No less than a week after we return from UG I will be traveling up country to a people group called the Rendille who inhabit the Eastern Province of Kenya. These are a people who live in the forest and speak their own mother tongue. We will be going to tell stories and working with girls helping they are worth more than making babies at the age of 14.
Facts about the Rendille
Population is 63,000
15% Christian but only 4.2% Evangelical
85% Practice African Traditional Religion
They offer sacrifices and pray to the moon and call their god "wakh"
Pray This month:
- Upcoming trips ( safety, restful nights even on the bus, health)
- My health
- Softball team at USIU opportunities for Emily and I to be bold
