I had a little helper one day. We were filling a big ditch that was left over from the water project at the mission station. A huge lament went up by Matthias when we had to return the wheel barrel.

The days are drawing to a close for our time here in Kenya. We leave July 27th for Portland. Please keep our travels in your prayers. We have four different flights, two layovers of 5 plus hours and about 20 hours in the plane.

We are truly thankful for all who have supported us in serving here in Kenya. Home will be in Portland until I receive a call to the parish. Please keep our travels, arrival and a call in your prayers. But while we wait little Matthias will be able to use Grandpa's wheel barrel back home as we help out around the house to fix-up those things needing repair at grandpa Bud's.

Peace in Jesus--
