worker in Nairobi, Kenya, re
ports, “Everyone here is grate
ful to God for the rains which
have now arrived in Kenya In
fact there have been torrential
rams in some places causing
temporary flood conditions
“Within a week after the rains
began the landscaoe was green
and there was eood nourishment

given milk for a number of
