Baraka






Baraka means blessing in Kiswahili. As I put my pictures from the last weeks onto my computer, I discovered I've had a fair share lately, so I thought I'd share them...

(sunset at Tunza Lodge outside of town on Lake Victoria, and then with Tini, Lena and Hilmar, baptism for older Starehe kids, some of my little friends hanging out at Nyegezi Corner, and the Farming Game with some Albertan volunteers here for a few weeks)

ברך I know that what I have written there is hard to see, but it is the three consonants in Hebrew that form the word for bless. Transliterated into English letters its: BRK. Add the vowels for the third person masculine singular and it becomes BARAK - He blesses!

It is so good to see the kids getting baptized. I trust that God will use that event in their lives to remind them of their commitment to him and his to them.
