Our
day started with the now typical breakfast and chat among the team then we
headed out to meet Mr. Dickson’s full team with at their office Solidarity
House in Meru. It was amazing to see the greatness that comes out of the little office they had.

This is the office where all they meet and come out
with great work |
 |
| Waiting to head to the market |
Both parties where
able to discuss and share points and ideas needed to move forward and work
together. Ideas put forward for
development included table banking within the community, GIRL education action
and many other projects.
After the meeting we headed out to the
Mujwa street kids home. On our way there we made
a quick stop in the markets of Meru where we put our bargaining skills to very
good use.
 |
| Our last stop was the supermarket, unfortunately no bargaining here |
On
arrival we had a tour of the home.…

We got to see some of their farm animals as well
 |
| Then the kids welcomed us with songs and poems |
We then carried out a couple of activities with the children, the inner child in many people was kindled as we sang and danced...
|
After our activities we prayed and presents gifts to the home owner before we headed back to the center.
The following was extracted from the one of the Diaries of a cloverleaf missionary......................
" We got to meet the rest of Mr Dickson's team today and it was great to see the unity in moving forward and towards the same goal, the priceless investments these people put into their work carrying on through it all and no matter what... It is quite inspiring...
Many were moved to tears today at the street kids home, Yet we were all deeply convinced of God's love to the children. The live and joy He gives them even though they are in the midst of nowhere near enough, He still watches over them and sends them helpers from any and everywhere... I can only pray that He continues to do so, that even as we left them there He watches over them as always and that He helps them break free from mental and physical barriers they face day in day out.
We finally bought roasted corn today!!! "
See you later, Love and Blessing From
