A HOME OF LOVE


A day like no other spend in a productive way is when you manage to see the sincere smile and laughter on the face of the less fortunate. They say its the little things that people do that matter the most, it's true.

A cold rainy day at Langata Charity Missionary Center. I got there late though, joining Nipesauti Africa colleagues. Sarah, Diana and Susan are among the friends I made this day. Susan and 46 others are so excited to see us. They are so excited at the songs we sing and they laugh out loud. Thrilled despite being  restricted  to their wheelchairs some of them try to jump and clap. Looking at them can't help but see the sense of belonging, in fact, they are a family. My new friend Susan doesn't like her name " Susan si jina poa" she says. We chat a little and she is enchanting loves gospel music mostly Gloria Muliro's.

They all sing along the songs we sing and the laughter gets infectious.
We leave at 1am but a lot is in my mind and heart. Their warm welcome,
 constantly saying 'karibu', others asking when we will visit next and most importantly there sincerity and warmth in their laughter and hugs.
Charity missionary center Langata a kempt and peaceful place is the home for Susan,Sarah, Diana and the rest. A home of love and care.
