"Up, up and Away...."

Well.... it is "up, up and away!" We will be traveling to Kenya for most of the month of March. We will be accompanied by our new co-workers, Jeff and Christine Stanfield and together we will travel to all of WGM's stations throughout the country visiting our 40 plus missionaries serving cross-culturally in medical, orphanage, and community development and educational ministries.
Our flagship ministry at Tenwek Hospital, as well as Chigoria, Nairobi, Kijabe, Olderkesi will round up our 20 days of ministry there. We have made several trips to Kenya over the years and we are excited to once again visit a part of the world that has captured our hearts. God is doing a great work through our missionaries in Kenya and we are thrilled to partner with them in support and prayer as we go to encourage and bless them. We ask an interest in your prayers for the 4 of us as we seek to be Jesus' hands and feet there in Kenya.
We ask that you will pray for our travels, for our visits with each person, for the Kenyans we will interface with, for our health and safety as we go.
Many of you have been aware of my mom's illness and hospitalizations over the holidays. Marlene and I were able to make a quick visit her prior to our trip.  We are grateful to report that mom is making good progress in her recovery and gaining strength in her recovery process. We will be planning to be together with mom for our granddaughters birthdays over Easter Weekend.
As always, we realize that we can not do this ministry alone. We need you as partners in this work to support us in prayer. Through your support we are enabled to go to care for others across the way. Thank you so much!
Sincerely,
Ned and Marlene
