A Letter From Joseph Koyei
Joseph Koyei, cultural ambassador for the Maasai people of Kenya, paid us a visit last month for about a week. We enjoyed his visit every bit as much as he did (see below). The Maasai are a respected tribal people famous for their tall warriors. He taught us about Maasai village life, told us about fighting lions (including grabbing one by the tail because to do so is worthy of respect), showed us his scars from doing so, and taught us the best methods for avoiding an attack by rhinoceroses and buffaloes. A few of us are going to get to visit him in late May or early June on our Kenya trip. To learn more about the Maasai people,

Dohnavur Fellowship in India
Tagged with: dohnavur, india, travel
One of our favorite times in India was our pilgrimage to Dohnavur Fellowship in Tamil Nadu. We traveled 5 hours by car to the southernmost tip of India. After a rest from our journey, we went to see where our dearly beloved, Amy Carmichael lived and worked unreservedly to save children from a life of prostitution and from being “married to the gods” in Hindu temples. Although we know her only through her writings and poems, when we envision the great ‘cloud of witnesses’ – she is there standing amongst many others who gave their lives unconditionally to rescue India’s lost children . As we read her books our hearts became endeared to India, a nation halfway around the world. We were inspired to put music to her poems so we could sing to our Lord the way she did. We prayed for India’s children because of the stories we read that were written by her. It was a dream of many of us to one day visit Dohnavur Fellowship, to walk where she walked, and to see the country this young Irish missionary conquered for Christ in the early 1900’s. Our expectations were high as we traveled towards the place called Dohnavur Fellowship. more...
