Follow the on-going journey of Connie Cheren, president of "Partners For Care." A non-profit organization dedicated to serving the people of Kenya. All of her hopes, emotions, and dreams of a better Africa beat through her blackberry, the only source for this blog. In Connie's case, you could say that her heart and her blackberry reside in the same place...Africa.

9th Update from Connie
Please pray for the violence to stop! I was just in Nairobi Church with the Bishop and they are asking for prayer. The violence continues. So many homeless, hungry, cold, scared. I am not exagerating the situation. If you ever wanted to help now is the time. The Bishop had over a hundred requests on Friday for help. I will explain in a detailed email later today the UN's response and what Red Cross is doing. I have talked with officials throughout this trip and I will share the world's response through the UN but believe me when I tell you people are dying. Some say this is exageration but this team has been on the ground and seen it for ourselves. Also pray for the team tonight to be able to put this story in words and pictures. The Bishop is meeting in a leadership meeting tomorrow with Parliament on what is really happening on the ground and plans to go forward. Pray we can give him the story in pictures and words. Praying for an immediate stopping of the violence in Kenya,Connie
