This shot was taken for an article which appeared in Senior Living magazine in June,2006 in British Columbia. about our work n Africa.

Do you like the necklace I am wearing in the picture? This is the work of Julius who creates his wonderful designs in the area where I work in Africa. I sell his jewelry to raise funds. Here is his picture in his work hut. Click to enlarge it.

 

We will leave Canada on September 23 and plan to be in Kakamega October 2. We have funding for some new wells and for other projects. We are looking forward to seeing our instructors at the computer school who have worked so faithfully for us while we are away, as well as the three boys we sponsor in High School. We also support one young man at University.  I am excited about the Virtues Project for Positive Discipline in schools which has excellent Kenyan leadership.

 

For just over $2000 we can bring safe, clean water to a rural community. I have added a report on the  wells we installed in rural villages and a description of the communities awaiting a well.

 

We have been experimenting an HIV/AIDS awareness curriculum. It is hard to believe that Kenya has no direct teaching to young people on this topic. Here is a picture of the teachers who are working with me.

In January 2007 these teachers conducted a successful seminar for their colleagues. We plan to do more this coming year.

A SUITABLE FATHER (JUNE 2004); DANCING WITH THE DEVIL (JUNE, 2004) ; JOURNEYS END (SEPT, 2005)

JOURNEYS END: Imagine this...You're minding your own business, walking the dog when you bump into Mr. Tall, Dark and Mysterious. The next thing you know, you open your eyes and you and your dog are 400 years in the past...'

 

A SUITABLE FATHER is a terrific tale of true love. It started off with a bang and had me stuck to my seat. I was not able to put the book down because I had to find out what was going to happen next with Kurt and Maggie. Mrs. Crossley adds just the right touch of suspense and action without taking away from the romance. She has a great way with writing her characters' emotions that has your heart reaching out to them. This book has a place on my keeper shelf and I will definitely be looking for more of her work. mendi@romancejunkies.com

 

DANCING WITH THE DEVIL: This is a great read, darkly suspenseful, full of mystery, and passionate love. A sinister, insane man comes back into the life of the woman he tortured in the past, intent on gaining back what he deems as his ‘lost love’ .....This is a definite recommend to lovers of the suspense romance genre, Reviewed by Kari Thomas
