On Sunday we enjoyed going to church in Athi River, which is located about 40 minutes southeast of Nairobi. The roads here are a disaster. I will never complain about any roads or construction on roads in Utah again, NEVER! Wait till you see the pictures. Oh my! Despite the roads we made it to church on time. When we got there we were the first ones there besides two other men and the Elders serving in the area. The Athi River Branch has their Priesthood and Relief Society meetings first, which I guess is a good thing because I sat in the Relief Society room for about 20 minutes before the next sister came. The leaders of the church in this area are trying to get people to be more punctual, but it is the African way here and most people have to walk to church. After we got started we had great, I mean great, lessons and meetings. It is said that the African people are inherently spiritual and I can tell you that that is true. Their testimonies are firm and their gospel questions are thoughtful. Matt was asked to speak in Sacrament Meeting. He bore his testimony and encouraged the saints here to stay strong in the gospel. We were able to meet one of the first members of the church here in Kenya, Brother Mbithi. He actually started the first Kenyan Branch of the church and that branch is located in Chyulu (look at the Chyulu post). He and his wife have 9 children, 8 of which have served missions. They invited us to their home following church. We didn't stay long, just long enough to take a few picture and have a drink of pop. As we left. Sister Mbithi gave me a beautiful basket that she had made. These people are so giving and so loving. What an amazing place.
