I will spare you a link to the horrific story of the missionary couple who were beaten and assaulted in Kenya last week. The story is horrifying enough to lose sleep at night and forgo breakfast in the morning. The salt in the wound is that they do not have medical insurance; they couldn't get any before leaving, due to their age (66&70). The Canadian couple had already sold all their possessions to go to Kenya and help the widows and orphans living in poverty.
The couple's strength and faith through this horrid event is an example and inspiration to us all. Although easy for me to type, sitting here in my safe little office, no matter what happens to us in this world, nothing nor anybody can take away our faith, nor our rewards in heaven.
Because of this attack, the sound of (ultimate) forgiveness has rung in the ears of millions of people around the world.
God bless this couple.

I think it's amazing that people give so much of themselves to help the less fortunate. We have five ethopian adopted children in our extended family. It's people like these missionaries (and yourselves) that give those across the world hope for the future. God bless you on your trip!
