Day 11: Competition
Quote of the day: basically everyone when playing a very competitive game of Jungle speed: “SHUT UP JOE!”
Today began with the expectation of a church service at 11:00. Not a problem, we got up at about 9:00, and were ready at 11:00. We start waiting for the cars.
11:30... still waiting...
12:00... still waiting...
Geoff calls the driver, who tells him with a cheerful voice The service actually starts at 14:00. Thank you Kenyan time! 🙏
Fortunately, we filled the time with some (admittedly very competitive) games of Jungle speed and a game of Cluedo.
When we eventually did arrive at chrisCo Ngorika at a perfect time of 14:40 (the service hadn’t actually started yet), we listened to Geoff talk about Zacchaeus and how God works through unusual people.
Another good day for all of us - as the end of this trip gets closer and closer we’ve all realised we’ve got to make the most of what we have before it goes! Please continue to pray for support for all our leaders (especially Joe, who has done a wonderful job of keeping everyone together and happy So far - but don’t tell him I said that)

Waiting for the car...
Joe apparently wasn’t really trying to win Jungle Speed...
Jack putting us all to shame with his reflexes

Would be lovely if we could be less governed by time in the West...African time needs protection!
