Wrapping Up

Jambo from California! Yes, we are still in the USA. We are wrapping things up and preparing to head back to Kenya in two weeks. Our time here has been extremely productive and we both feel so very blessed.

I've been able to take two courses while here. One for obstetrical ultrasound, and one for colposcopy (an advanced form of women's health-care). I have learned so many new things that I'm excited to take back to the clinic. I really can't even begin to describe how amazing these classes were and how beneficial they are going to be to the work in Kipkaren!

William just got back from a 5-day agricultural convention and symposium in Florida. He was blown-away by the material and the networking that took place. Delegates from literally all over the world attended and shared what they are doing to use agriculture to sustainably feed the poor in their parts of the world. He is also returning to Kenya with new ideas and strategies in mind.

As we wrap up and prepare to head back to Kenya we are going to be sending out our new prayer cards. It's been quite a while since we actually sent out a physical mailing but we want to do so to get the new cards out. If you want a prayer card can you please make sure that we have your most up-to-date address? You can e-mail it to me at michellekiprop@empoweringlives.org

I'll try to be back up on the blog soon with some more pictures and stories about our time here as well as our plans for implementing what we have learned when we return to Kenya.
