Dani at Bethesda on the 9th of May 2020
Dani_in_Kenia, 23:17h
We were not able to reorganize the garden of Bethesda on the 13th of April 2020. Therefore, on the 9th of May 2020, I came again with my gardener to finish the job.
On that day, I came with some office materials.
When I came last time, I recognized that the children were very often watching TV, they did not have any games. Therefore, I created for them several card games myself like a memory game, a quartet game, a German card game called "Uno" and another one called "Elevens out".
During the time, when my gardener worked with the Bethesda gardener in the garden,

I spend my time with the boys and taught them one game after the other, so that they were able to play such games by themselves, even when I am not around.
Also, I gave pastor Langat a flash disc with a lot of Bible cartoons and Bible movies for children to enable them to watch Christian movies.
Even on that day, I cooked for the children rice and meat and there were some oranges.

After lunch, I taught them a Swahili Bible story and an English mission story.
Because I did some foundraising for Bethesda, I was not able to give each of the seven boys a metal box and several clothes: Each boy received jeans, pullovers, sweaters, T-Shirts, socks, two jackets, a belt etc.
Because the little boy was not able to play the card games, I bought for him some extra toys and a small dolly-dog.
Before we left, I went to the garden to see the changes:
Apart from the vegetables, they also planted some passion fruits.
Some seeds already terminated since our last visit:
My aim for that day was to reorganize the garden of Bethesda, so that the boys have now a variety of vegetables and some fruits. I also wanted to teach them some table card games so that they were able to play together even when I will be not around. I gave them also some Christian movies so that if they watch TV, they can also learn more about the Bible.
