January 1, 2010 was the
first annual Kijabe New
Year's Day Parade.








Vic and Gale Holt are sitting on the steps we claimed to watch
the parade. We were soon surrounded by children much
more interested in our cameras and binoculars than in us!















We watched a band, marching school children and various vehicles.
Our new friends only left our sides when candy was being thrown.
























































The participants marched up to the RVA campus and around the athletic field.

























Young and old, on foot
or on mom's back came
to watch.







































This gem in pink is Hope. She is being adopted
by a local American family after being dropped
off at the local hospital as an infant.

Our hope for all of these children is that
they find the hope that Jesus gives.
