the below is actually a note written by our teammate to all of our families who may be concerned about the current news of kenya and specifically the two bombings in nairobi.
"Greetings from our family in Kenya. You might have heard on the news that there have been two small bombings in Nairobi, Kenya in the last 24 hours. These bombings are likely tied to a Somali rebel group, a which has been threatening Kenya with such attacks over the last few weeks.
We want to let you know that we and the rest of our team are all safe in Narok. Fortunately, the area that we live and minister is far removed from Nairobi and other areas of potential risk. In consultation with a local security expert who has served with the U.S. military and a number of missions organizations, we as a team are taking a number of precautions to avoid risk. Please know that while the news is unsettling we do feel safe here in Narok. AfricaHope and New Mission Systems will continue monitoring the situation in the coming weeks and days.
For now we ask that you will please pray for the countries of Kenya and Somalia. Please pray for safety and security for Kenya and that God would free the people of Somalia from oppression."
Will pray for Kenya and Somalia; thanks so much for posting update; means a lot to those who love you that are back in the states!
