Hello and how are you?   We are well.   It has rained a tremendous amount here.   Praise the Lord.   We have had rain every day now for many weeks (it feels like the UK!) and everything is very green and lush.   We give thanks for the rain and pray that it would reach all parts of this country.   We pray too for those who have been affected by floods.   We heard last week that 5 children died (in separate incidents we believe) in Kibera during torrential rain storms when the flooded river swept them away.   Please remember for their families and for safety especially when it rains very heavily.   The roads are crumbling with the rains and many sewers are simply not able to cope with the water.   This is hazardous and it makes driving difficult.    

Andrew has a busy few weeks ahead.   He is planning to go to Uganda to externally audit the MAF Uganda programme 13th - 18th June.   He will prepare for this over the forthcoming weeks.   This Ugandan Audit with be with Keith Ketchum.   Keith and his wife Rosie have worked for many years with MAF, both here in Kenya and Ethiopia as well as in Ashford in Kent.   Andrew and Keith will be joined in Kampala by 2 colleagues from MAF Australia who will observe the audit.

Also in June, Andrew as MAF Kenya's Depute Safety Officer and Derek Moores who is a Pilot as well as the MAF K Safety Officer, are planning some Safety and Quality Awareness Seminars for staff.   Then at the end of June Andrew will be running Security training for MAF Kenya staff in Nairobi.   Between now and the end of June, Andrew will be preparing for all these events.

Jean's role as Learning and Development Coordinator is going well.   She is following up with delegates who were on training courses in January, encouraging them to remember what they learned and trying to help them to put some of it into practice.   She has also been coordinating courses for September and October.   Lindsay Rose (who she job-shares with) has not been in the office recently.   Lindsay and Adrian are expecting their third child and Lindsay has been ordered to rest more.

 The next MAF Fellowship Day is on the 11th June.   Please remember this day and pray as the MAF Kenya family get together for fellowship, worship and leaning together.

 Andrew J started his AS exams last week.   He has exams on the 19th, 20th, 25th, 26th and 31st May, as well as 2nd June, 4th, 9th and the last one on the 10th.   This weekend Fraser is going on his Silver President's Award expedition.   They leave at 8.30am on Friday 21st and hope to return on Sunday 23rd May.   He is very keen on these events and is very much looking forward to it.   Iain continues to play football!

Thank you for praying for us.   Thanks for your continued support.  

 Yours in Christ Jesus

Andrew, Jean, Andrew J, Fraser and Iain Boyd
