Doing Well in the USA







Hi everyone! Just thought I would drop you all a note to let you know that we are doing well here in the USA, Lewiston ID to be exact. We have taken great advantage to catch up on family life here with our children & grandchildren. We are enjoying it to the max!

The apartment that we are using is so perfect for us. It is centrally located in down town Lewiston so that we are accessable to anyone who wants to drop by and so that we can walk anywhere we need to go. Horace has been working with a friend building. So he usally has the car. That gives the children and I opportunity to walk a great deal. I probubly walk 4or5 miles aday, it has been very good for all of us.

Marvin goes to soccer practice each day over at CHS ( Clarkston High School ) his 1st game to play in is Monday the 24th he is very excited.

We have been quite buisy sharing our experiences from Kenya, we had a opportunity to share with our home church " Hope Chapel Lewiston " on Sunday past, it was a great time of opening our hearts to many who love us.

We are planning trip to the state of Colorado on the 28th to share with the board of " Children with Hope " and then fly to Michigan to share with a church there. We will share all of that when we return on the 7th of April. Please be praying for travel mercies for Horace & I during these 9 days. Our children will be staying with family and they will all need your prayers too.

I hope I have expressed enough how much we appreciate your prayers! We depend on them so much, we know that it has been in answer to all of your prayers that we have experienced all the blessings we have in every circumstance God has lent us to. We love you all so much.

Our days here at our home in the states with our family & friends is so precious to us but we are always thinking of the day we will return to our home in Kenya and the important purposes God has for us there.

We were sharing with some folks the other day that before the election violence the sats said in our district alone around Eldoret there are 80,000 orphans now after the violence there are 250,000 displaced people and 40% of these are children. We have God's work cut out for us, and your part is so important to that work!

Bless you all today, in the fullness of God's Blessing!! Love the Leisters in the US for awhile.

Holidays in Kenya!

Hi all our loved ones in the states! We are still very on and off with the internet. We just today changed to a new service, prayfully it will help our concistancy. We have now had 3 birthdays and Thanksgiving in Kenya. Marvin's, Myself andd Troy's we had people from 9:30am to 10:30pm ,it was a great day' On Thanksgiving we were invited to the Church of Christ,Discipleship Colege, to have lunch with all the foreign missionaries. That means that everyone was white excet the 2 wemon whom we have met who are married to Americans. It was very odd for us at first because we had not seen a group of whites the whole time we have been here. There were about 50 of us counting children, the children we have never seen in town. There were some from America, Germany, Switzerland and France. The Europieans do not celebrate Thanksgiving obviously but they like to socilize with other white foke. It was a very nice day and the food was great! They invited us to a missions prayer time eac

A Miracle Month!

Wow, what a month February has been! I think I will declare the unconditional love of God and His favor at the beginning of every month! We have had so many testimonies to God's miracles around us! So I am releasing the Spirit of Prophesy in proclaiming the testimony of Jesus! We have a new housekeeper ( described as house help here in Kenya) she has worked for us around 3 months. Her and her husband pastor a church in one of the slum areas,Heruma. This area was one of the areas most hit by the violence last year. Many sad stories, many women and children left abandoned because of a dead or just missing husband. Bea and Francis minister to these families! They are good people and good workers too, Francis has been working on the new house with Horace. While working in our kitchen Bea noticed that we had a super surplus of 500ml tins with lids. These tins are what the babies formula comes in and we go through about 5 a week. We have used as many as we could for storing different thi

Hello blog family! We are truly here! We have been very buisy getting things in order here at our new home. We set up a new internet system, this does not change our address or anything just how we operate from here. It has been quite a month. We have had a visit from Romanian friends that was just wonderful. We can not wait until they come again. They shared their love for chidlren with those we have here and encouraged us so much with their love for all of us and kenya. Thom Seagren & Dean Miller arrived on the 19th of Sept. and left on the 24th. They were able to check out the new house and work on long term planning. We saw the vision we all have for the orphaned children here in kenya come to life on this property and expand to future plans for the Jui Kali propery, it was a exciting time. Besides the fact that we just enjoyed haveing their company around our home. They got to meet and know the children we now have and to even visit chidlren we are looking at bringing to this
