It's two months into my year vicarage (internship) in Kenya and I'm finally getting the blog thing going.
In this blog I plan to give updates with special attention to the theme that I have selected: "Christ in Africa." Throughout my time here, I plan to observe and learn the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Kenya (ELCK). I know that many may be interested to here about life and culture here in Africa. My response to that would simply be you cannot learn such things from a blog. Only through first hand experience can you learn those things. To that end, I will certainly include information on culture and life here, but my main focus is to give updates on my ecclesial interaction, experience, and work. You might even find some personal information too. I hope you enjoy following along!
Yours in Christ,
Vicar Jeff
P.S My plan is to give updates 2-4 times per month.

Asante sana, Jeff! I'll look forward to reading your blog. Please give my warm greetings to the Bishop and his wife. They look healthy and happy.
ReplyDeleteWhere are you living? Are you serving at a specific congregation?
Hi Sandra!
ReplyDeleteI'm currently getting settled in here. The Bishop and the wife are doing well; I get along with them so well!
Although it's not official, I'll be helping with the Uhuru Highway Cathedral (since Isaiah is in FW). I'm living in the LCMS WM compound in Karen right now.
