In a few hours I head to the airport to start my journey home. I am trusting and praying that I have completed all the COVID formalities (negative test, Africa CDC QR code, UK form, etc…) and will be allowed to board.
Leaving Kenya is bittersweet. I am excited to soon be reunited with my family. At the same time, I am disappointed that I was not able to teach, that I had to leave my Kenyan friends and colleagues early, along with that I am leaving some projects uncompleted.
Once in the USA, I will quarantine. Kenya is a pretty hot spot for COVID right now and I do not want to be the one who brings a new strain to the States.
A big thank you to everyone who contributed to the course change costs. I will not know all the costs until I actually make it home, but it looks like the contributions are going to cover everything.
Praise God with me that I am headed home and for God’s gracious provision for the costs. Pray for Kenya and those I am leaving. Ask for God’s help with all the COVID formalities. Finally pray for my family and me as I quarantine; we will be so close but still separated.
