 SOON!   Yes Soon ALL exams will be over,  BUT many have completed, and will soon be able to relax!

The Last time I  wrote I included photos of our Primary Candidates, who had finally completed their National Primary Examinations which are the Entrance into High School.

TODAY,  I want to add photos of OUR High School Graduates, who having completed their National Examinations, are now having to wait and see where their labours will lead them - University, College, or other Training,    It has been quite a gruelling and demanding time for them all, and I am sure the majority will feel great relief in just FINSHING.     In the photo we see the High School block built in 2013,  To the left, out of sight is the Swimming Pool, and behind the camera are the Science labs, where our 4th Year students have just completed their Practicals. 
The Labs are all fairly spacious, airy, and well lit. The work benches were presented to us by Sir. John Johnson, British High Commissioner, on behalf of the Commission when we opened Form 1 and 2 in 1994.    The timber used for the bench tops is a special hard wood from Uganda.  They have worn well.   The School has Labs., for Physics, Biology, Home Science and Computer.    Generally the students have behaved themselves well, and with sobriety, and still having to observe the need to wear masks, and for spacing  in and out of Class.    Also some are not local, and have homes as far away as Mombasa, Nairobi and Nakuru.  Thus they have had to BOARD with us during the period of the examinations.     Currently Nairobi and Nakuru are locked down, and no one can travel in or out.  This may make a problem for those living in those areas to immediately return.   We are waiting on word from the Ministry to let us know.    Currently daily Positive C.19 cases remains as at 2o/100 .  

The top photo is of the Form 4 Class of 2020 who are now currently taking their Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education
 prior to selection for University.    Below is a group photo of the same with 11 members of Staff.

=================================

Well since writing on the 1st April, Esther and I have heard that our 2nd JAB will be on the 24th May, and there now seems no hang up on Vaccinations being available.   Most of our staff have now all been vaccinated.      Momentary crisis when 'Blood Clots' caused an initial furor of anxiety all over the Country, but this seems to have been satisfactorily  dealt with, and people are seem now quite willing to take advantage of it.     None of us have had ANY discomfort or other problem after being vaccinated.
DARYL is now out of his self imposed Isolation, and is back in circulation refreshed and quite well in every way.    We Thank God for His Care of each one of us all.
MANU has now quite recovered from his operation, and is now considering  getting his EYE operation within the next month - he will attend his Clinic next MONDAY for their assessment.    He very much would like to get it all over with as soon as he can,     The cost - approximately 80,000/= - is hoped to be carried by the Kenya Hospital Insurance.     We are grateful to see him up and about so speedily.
ESTHER's family in Nairobi are all now out of danger, and at home safe and sound.    Thus we are encouraged on all sides, and inspired to pray more and more believing in the Mercy, and Lovingkindness of our Father in Heaven, in Jesus Name.

Enough for this week.      We are hoping to find ways of expanding knowledge of our little Witness here in Testimony Faith Homes - especially as it seem not to be the Lord's will for any of us to travel and visit loved ones and other friends - our circle of is in fact shrinking little by little, and this has only underlined to us the Wonderful Faithfulness and Ability of God to PROVIDE for our needs, and at such a time.        We - I - am endeavouring to attend to correspondence with more alacrity and regularity, so please do feel welcome to be in touch.
God Bless and continuing to KEEP you all safe and confident in JESUS.

John, Esther and Daryl Green
