Elaine Getty

We went to Kijabe for New Year and celebrated it with Elaine Getty.

I know Elaine from Bible College.  She is now working as a teacher at Rift Valley Academy (for missionary kids) in Kijabe.  It was nice to get out of the polluted hustle and bustle of Nairobi for a few days and relax in beautiful surroundings.  It was community day in RVA so me and Paul enjoyed getting involved playing all sorts of games with the local kids and learning some Kikuyu (the local language) from a couple of the older ones.

At church today it was Paul's responsibilty to introduce the two of us as the man... It was ok until he didn't remember where we were staying so said 'ABC' to which I shouted 'no, ARV!' (Medics will know that means anti-retro virals for HIV...) which was greeted by some chuckles by the medical staff over working at Kijabe Mission Hospital...finally we came to the agreement that in fact we were staying at RVA.

[If you pray -Prayer requests for Elaine:
She is pretty overworked at the mo so pray that somehow she will find a way to decrease her workload but not jeopardise the students learning experience.  Also pray for all the students and staff as the students return tomorrow and the term starts on Tuesday.]
