Now that January has arrived, snow covers the ground in Madison, WI. As a result, setting foot on the red clay of Kenya this July seems a long way off-- another world, a seeming lifetime away.
As of NYE, our team was selected for our July trip to Nairobi. We have individuals from 15 to 40 yo, with skills as diverse as graphic design and infectious disease nursing. All in all, the entire team is excited to get on the ground in Ongata Rongai to work with Beacon of Hope.
The plans for this year's trip are quite exciting and diverse. We are slated to again participate in home visits in Kware slum and to run a free medical camp at the Beacon training center in Ongata Rongai. However, new this year is an opportunity to travel to the Masai land to establish a new VCT (government sponsored HIV clinic) along with a general medical clinic.

This new direction is an answer to prayer as God continues to expand the influence of Beacon of Hope throughout Kenya. Come what may!
