We just got back to Nairobi after spending 2 days debriefing as a team...I still struggle to find words to describe how I'm processing this trip.  Mathare messed me up, and these kids have exposed an area of my heart I didn't know existed.  It's going to take some time for me to "move on."

I wanted to send a short note to let you know I will share more when I get back to the US.  We leave for the Nairobi airport in about 15 minutes, and I will get back to Orange County late on Thursday, the 11th.  I might crawl into a hole and hibernate for a couple of days :) but I will post a blog sharing more pictures and final thoughts from this life changing experience when I emerge.  Kenya has lodged itself in my heart.

Still praying that Alice & Benson find a sponsor soon...

P.S. - I really want to thank Shaun Groves and Patricia Jones for their uncanny leadership on this trip AND Keely Scott for taking some of the best photographs I've ever seen...this team truly has become family.
