Home Safely

Thank you for all your prayers, we are home safely.  It was a very long day of travelling yesterday and we feel quite a huge culture shock adjusting back.  There were some very tearful goodbyes and although our bodies are back now in England we feel like we have left everything else at Tumaini!  Our suitcases were much lighter coming home but are hearts full of so many special memories and our lives so much richer for all that we have experienced.   We received an incredible welcome home which has meant a lot to us and we look forward to sharing some of our experiences with you.  We will blog some photos and details soon but just wanted to assure you all of our safe return.  Thank you, we know we have been surrounded in prayer ant that has meant a lot. xo

Mombassa

We are having such an amazing time in this beautiful place, the people are so friendly and have made us feel very at home.  The boys are enjoying more freedom within the compound than they have ever had at home and have spent many hours laughing and playing with their new African friends.  We are eating at the kids home every night and then playing hilarious games - a lot of laughter!  John has been fixing lots of chairs - sounds simple but has been quite a big job.  I have enjoyed time with the boys and getting to know lots of interesting people here.  The children are gorgeous and we enjoyed time in the school last week.  Church was great, felt like heaven listening to the choir singing and dancing with such profound joy.  We are all struck by how little people have materially and this is quite hard to take in at times however the people are rich in so many other ways... the beach is beautiful so the boys have done a lot of swimming.  We have spent hours with many kids on the beach, no toys, no beach bags or towels but a huge amount of fun!  Internet is not easy to access so today we have made our way on 2 tuk tuks and a ferry to get to a cafe!  We will post some photos when we get back as it is too slow to upload here.  Thank you for all your prayers, we are enjoying good health and feel very safe.  Big hugs to all at home xo xo
