Pilgrimage of Trust in Nairobi

Mazzoldi House is "home" for the Apostles of Jesus, the religious order that hosted my stay in Nairobi. It is the order that has provided priests to Bomu since 1996, including Fr. Okech and Frs. Mutiso and Wanjala.

The brothers collecting for prayer.

From left to right across the top they are: Crispinus, Baraza, Doreen, Thomas, Dan, Felilcia A, Steve (now chairman), Anne, host person, Edwin, Thomas (former chhairman), and Collins (starting the Dominican Seminary in the fall 2009). Seated are Caroline and two host persons.

My host family in Banana, in the Karuri district: Georgina being held by her Mom, Trizza, Antony holding a neighbor child, Mama Margaret, Rose, and Risper, being held by me.

The Icon on the right is a symbol of friendship. A copy of the Icon was distributed by the brothers to each of the nations of Africa represented at the Pilgrimmage.
