More About the PACE Children’s Library in Kenya

Earlier I wrote about my friend Diane, who spent the month of January helping to create a children’s library in Kenya, with the PACE mission group. Books are such a luxury in Africa, that the children were beside themselves with excitement to be able to visit the library and read!

Diane is back now, and reports, “Mary has sent these great pictures to me and I wanted to pass them along to you.  We not only have books in the library but we brought along some other items as well.  Even the boys like them!  Children there do not have much in terms of these kind of toys.  I didn’t see any in the stores we went to in town.  Also as I mentioned earlier in an email, they make their own toys out of old tires, pop bottles, sticks.  There is not much money in a family for the luxury of bought toys.  So this is a treat indeed for them!

Thanks to those who donated some of the stuffies and thanks to the thrift stores where I picked up a few at a great discounted price!”
