I'm back!

Hey all y'all amazing people out there. Yes, finally another update. Just arrived back in Kenya a couple of days ago and will start the loooooong journey to D R Congo tomorrow evening. Was having mixed feelings about being back here in Kenya. A lot of the stuff I already dealt with last time was affecting me again. A little prayer covering from Matt and Brandi mixed with and afternoon of praying for and blessing people on the street fixed me up right good.

I'm so happy to be back and am super excited about Congo. I don't know how much I'll be able to communicate from there but I hope to give a couple updates during the month I'm there. For you that don't know, Congo is one of the darkest places on the planet at this time. Millions of people have be killed in the wars that are going on. Google it if you'd like to know more. That said, my team and I could really use your prayers. Not only for physical protection but also that we don't get our photography equipment confiscated or locked in jail or kidnapped etc., etc. Part of our focus on this trip is going to be about a photography project. Traveling with that kind of equipment and taking pictures can raise the risk factor significantly.

I will be with an amazing team and we have an awesome dad so we really have nothing to worry about. Thanks for the prayers. I love you all.
