Hi everyone-
First of all, a big thanks on behalf of our team for coming to read our blog. We are so excited about all the opportunities that God has in store for us in Kenya, and I can't wait to be able to recount them here for you!
As I have been running around today doing last minute errands, I've been listening to Hillsong United's Mighty To Save. I decided that my first post will be the lyrics with a couple of my favorite pictures from Kenya.
Everyone needs compassionA Love that’s never failing
Let mercy fall on me
Everyone needs forgiveness
Everyone needs forgiveness
The kindness of a Savior
The Hope of nations
Savior, He can move the mountains
My God is mighty to save
He is mighty to save
Forever author of Salvation
He rose and conquered the grave
Jesus conquered the grave
Savior, He can move the mountains
My God is mighty to save
He is mighty to save
Forever author of Salvation
He rose and conquered the grave
Jesus conquered the grave
So take me as You find meAll my fears and failures
Fill my life again
I give my life to follow
Everything I believe in
Now I surrender
Savior , He can move the mountains
My God is mighty to save
He is mighty to save
Forever author of Salvation
He rose and conquered the grave
Jesus conquered the grave
My God is mighty to save
He is mighty to save
Forever author of Salvation
He rose and conquered the grave
Jesus conquered the grave
Shine your light and
Let the whole world see
We're singing for the glory
Of the Risen King
Jesus, Jesus
Shine your light and
Let the whole world see
We're singing for the glory
Of the Risen King
If anyone wants to hear the song (and not just read it!), here's a YouTube link:

That's all for now... look for our first official post sometime Wednesday! Parents, we will make sure someone posts when we've arrived in London and again once we're safely in Machakos. :)
Oh, and PS- in case anyone is a blog geek like me, I added a little counter to the bottom of this section of the blog (under all the posts) that will let us know how many people are coming to visit. Once you've visited once, I don't think it counts you again as a visitor (it looks like it's only counting visits by IP address, but what do I know? I'm a French teacher!).
In Christ,
Jill (a.k.a. Mademoiselle Cox)
