It's official! The word is out that we're moving to Kenya. Praise the Lord for such enthusiastic response and approval from family and friends. Our desire is that others would grab hold of the passion and spirit and also feel led by the Holy Spirit to boldly proclaim Christ to others.
"go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you" Matthew 28:19

Chapatis
Here's the recipe that we've used for the "Africa Meal".
Chapatis
2 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoons oil
7/8 cup very warm water (if multiply the recipe, use only enough water to make a stiff dough)
Mix flour and salt. Stir in oil and mix in warm water. Dough should be soft, but not too wet or sticky.
Knead on floured board for 5 minutes.

Knead on floured board for 5 minutes.
Cover dough and allow to rest for 30 minutes.
Divide dough into golf ball size pieces. Roll each ball into a “snake” shape.
Then wrap the dough into the shape of a cinnamon roll. Place on floured surface and roll each piece into a circle.
Cook on hot greased griddle until browned on both sides (maybe 3 minutes total).
Cover with a cloth and keep warm until ready to serve.
This recipe makes thin, pliable chapatis.

Substitutes
We continue to divest ourselves of the material possessions we've accumulated over many years of living selfishly. One of those "gotta have" items is my triathlon racing bike. I'll be trading in a lightweight, carbon fiber racing machine for something a little more modest...
Gotta get things done
As the time grows short until we leave for Kenya, Kellie and I have lots and lots to do. We're trying to remodel our house and sell off many of our unnecessary possessions that we've accumulated over the years.
- install vinyl siding on the rental house
- new shingles on our house
- complete remodel of our kitchen
- new carpet throughout
- build a new room in the basement
- repair ceiling cracks throughout
- paint all rooms
- get rid of everything in the house
- sell both houses
