June Update
We have just returned from our sectional meeting at Limuru Kenya, where we met with other missionaries from Kenya, Congo (DRC), Uganda, Tanzania, Ruwanda, Burundi, and Southern Sudan. It was a great time of fellowship and refreshing with Bible studies from Phillippians and also Joshua 1:9. The trip went very well, not a single flat the entire trip, and we were able to get liquid nitrogen for the AI tank at Usa River, at the National Artificial Insemination Center. Terry has finished his first biogas generator and gave it to our neighbor who has a dairy. The picture shows him putting the final hose on and ready to "fill" it. The biogas generator is filled with manure and water which produces methane gas that can be used to cook with.

Christmas in June
We received our crate this week and made the trip from Dar with a large two axle trailer. The trip went well, no flats, the crate didn't move around and the trailer "followed along" just fine. We felt like it was Christmas when we got it opened, all those great things we had crated just three months ago: chocolate chips, Frito's, tomatoe paste, Rotel, laundry soap, a recliner, ice maker, green beans, corn, and lots of other goodies that many of you helped us pack. Thanks to all of you who helped fill the crate with these goodies.
Tomorrow, Friday June 5th, we will head to Nairobi for meetings next week. On our way we will go through Usa River, a small village, where there is a government supported program that can fill the AI tank with liquid nitrogen and Terry will be able to purchase semen to use in his teachings. Saturday we will cross the border into Kenya and that can always be a "real treat". Pray for our travels, crossing the border and then our time in Kenya as we worship and fellowship with other of our mission family.
