Far Neighbors' Faces

Our families were privileged to serve together this summer in Burundi and Kenya, where we participated in disability ministries in both countries.












Bob's son Steve, who has Down Syndrome, was the center of attention at the disability center in Bujumbura. Several young men instantly recognized him as their brother, and they embraced him with delight.

In Kenya, we partnered with Cyndi Bauer and the ministry of Kupenda. We taught deaf children, visited other children in their homes, conducted a pastor's workshop on disability, and participated in a community-wide disability awareness day. We saw the faces of our far neighbors, and we saw the light of glory shine.
