Wow its been longer than I thought. I've left everything hanging on the worst day I've had - maybe ever. Things are looking much brighter now.
I'm officially a journalist. WORLD magazine published a report from Londiani in thier latest issue and are publishing another report on their website. I've also been requested to write a followup report on the violence not only in Londiani but also here in Nairobi.
Oh yes, we are in Nairobi now. Living in a beautiful English country house in an upscale suburb. God performed a maricle and we found the house the day after we reached Nairobi. We are all settled in now and are planning on staying for at least one month. God is great!
Plans - right now there are none. We are praying and seeing what God has in mind. Returning to Londiani is on the bottom of our options which include things like my parents attending language training school, looking for property somewhere and starting another mission, returning permentantly to America. For me personally - I'm planning to apply to the World Journalism Institute - a three week course in New York City, in May. I'm also diving headlong into a correspondence course from the London School of Journalism. I completed four assignments yesterday, as well as writing a 250 word report for WORLD. I'm definately getting in the groove. This week will be BUSY as I have a number of interviews to do, phone calls to make, and pictures to take to say nothing of actually writing the report! So look for more news sometime next week. I'll try to document the process. (And get some pictures on here. I miss High Speed Wireless!)
