Today we had the opportunity and honour to visit some households in the Kibera informal settlement (slum) of Nairobi. It was good to see some of the recent improvements in infrastructure in Kibera, such as the sealing and widening of internal roads.
Dec 29th - All the Spur sponsored children and their families were invited for a health check. 🙂
😝
WHAT A DAY!! I feel very much exhausted, I forgot how hard it is to run a health clinic.
The sign of the times - RAPID TESTING - NEGATIVE results! YAY~
We decided to test ourselves for some peace of mind. We nearly had the tests taken away at customs (because of tax reasons), however praise God we managed to talk our way through.
Proof of life photo!! We made it safely to Kenya!!
There was some waiting & disorganisation checking our documents when we got to Kenya but we managed to get through quickly.
Hello from Doha!! Flight from Melbourne was pretty smooth.
Thanks for all the prayers & birthday messages. I am currently enjoying some cake and watching the planes take off.
It’s boarding time!
We nearly had all the correct paperwork. There was a stack of paperwork they asked us for. I had to do a Kenyan surveillance form on the spot, but the flight attendant was happy to help.
Update!! What a stressful day!!
Covid results didn’t come back so I decided to go to the airport to get a rapid PCR test. Sorry to my family as I skipped most of Christmas lunch.
Flight is tomorrow night 10:55pm 🙂
Please pray:
I waited about 1.5 hours for my COVID test yesterday morning BUT my covid test results still haven’t come back yet (hopefully soon) but David Fong’s result is negative (yay!
