OK, so today at church the choir sang, like they always do. Well there's this one young man, I'd say he's probably 26 or so and the smile on his face is amazing. Why may you ask? Well, this young man, his name is Elvis, (I kid you not) is an orphan. His parents died years ago. He and his brothers are basically poor. I'm not sure if he has a job or not, but his brother Oliver is the Choir director at church. There are 4 sisters in the family, 2 are still home with the brothers. So if you think of them pray for this family. They are precious people and love the Lord.
During church the pastor preaches in Swahili and in English. He throws out English words here and there and I'm able to follow along with what he's teaching. It's actually fun because I have to pay attention and paying attention sometimes is difficult for me to do. lol
When we got out of church there was a slight breeze blowing and it felt so good. Yesterday I had my hair braided. I think it looks silly, but the Kenyan's all seem to love it. The top of my head is sun burnt but it doesn't hurt so that's good. I plan to leave the braids in until tomorrow after school, then they are coming out.
The guy who stole some money from me will be home today. I think Alice is going to send him packing. I told her I wanted to have a chat with him and I will. I'm very disappointed in him and I know Alice is furious with him. As for being to hard on him, well I will be hard on him. #1 It's wrong to steal!, #2. You don't steal from friends and he said he was my friend. #3. I'm not the only one he has taken money from in this house. It's time he learns the value of stealing gets him nothing in return.
I must sign off now. My puter is running low on power and I must charge it before we lose power again. LOL
