Four hours after leaving the Kentmere we arrived at Kieni for a Women's and Men's Conference hosted by the Bellavue Church with Pastor Stephena and his wife, Anne.   There were 60 women and 16 men for the conference.    We shared together the Biblical basis for effective ministry for women and men.   The participants shared their current ministries and the challenges.   Part of the time is spent working together on a way forward.   We had a short but great time.   At the end, Debbie and Bill Kenny had brought some infant and children's clothes.  These were shared with the women.  Also, the received a beautiful book mark.   We had a great day in a dry land.   The area is semi-arid and it was dry and dusty.    We returned to our home for the next few days, the Westwood Hotel, Nyeri.   The team there greeted us warmly and we settled in.
