I awoke with a gasp as I heard something I have only heard in movies before...was that a machine gun?? There it went again, yep that was a machine gun...how close was it?? Trying to get back to sleep I dozed in and out for most of the rest of the night dreaming of robbers and such...When I did get up I was tired, but knew i had a lot of work to do...as I went through the gate on the way to work the guard told me that the police had shot at some robbers trying to rob the Mt. Elgon hotel up the street and had chased them just up the road before they had shot and missed...there have been several robberies in the downtown area, even in the middle of the day...please pray for me as i carry large sums of money around with me as I buy all the materials for the job.
Work is really progressing...we have 2 rooms plastered and the upward part of the outside is finished. The "face brick" we will start on Monday.
Kids are doing well, but ready to go home...this is so much like camping and even camping can get old...
Today we all go up to Sipi for church to renew old friendships we had in our old home place. All for now, Blessings, and thank you for all your prayers on our behalf, Tom
