Kenya

Refuge

May 10, 2016 By MississippiMom

"Redeemed from the pit." Christians hear that (and think that) phrase quite a bit, and with good reason.  God's pulled me from a few pits, I promise.  But when I visited Kenya last month, I saw someone on the first day out.  I watched a young girl be pulled from refuse and given a refuge.

March 19, 2017 By MississippiMom

The world is wide, and I want my kids to know it. How and why to encourage them to explore - down the road and around the world!

  It's nap time, and I'm sitting here sipping some coffee straight from Kenya and nibbling a bit of dark chocolate and thinking how perfect they taste together on this Mississippi afternoon. As I savor the rich flavor that comes only from Kenya, I think of coffee farms and tea fields, and if I close my eyes, I can almost feel the wind on my face and the warmth of the sun beating ...
