Welcome to OUR home in Mbita, Kenya

We are beyond grateful for the provision of our house.  Our town of Mbita is not a very developed town.  Only last year was the road into Mbita paved!  There are few Westerners living here and, thus, few Western-style (American standard) housing.  We were amazed to find this house not only existed in Mbita, but it was available to rent. We have electricity and running water, and even a hot shower! We were quick to see this was God's gift to us!

Enjoy a tour of our home!

Agak Estate - the name of our plot

Living Room

Our Bedroom

Spare Bedroom

Every day we are thankful for our instant hot water heater (above the shower head) and flush toilet! EVERY DAY!  :-)

Kitchen

Much of the furniture in our home was included in the rental; which is not common here. Including the refrigerator and oven! Again- a great blessing!

The view from our front veranda! 

Every good home needs a pet. This is Brinkley!

Karibu- Welcome!  Please come visit!

The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; 
yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. Matthew 7:25
