Thought for the Week: Letter from Kenya

Trish Carn writes from the World Conference of Friends in Kenya

Our reception in Kenya was very warm. Kenyan Quakers waited all day at the airport to welcome us and then got us organized. A beautifully lush, but sometimes sparse, red dirt landscape greeted me as we left Nairobi for Nakuru. The roads teemed with market stalls of all descriptions – mainly consisting of ramshackle wooden poles supporting a ragged canvas top.
