Crusade in Dagoretti Corner

26, 27, 28 February was crusade-time for VWO.  Pastor Safari made many plans and we had some big names in Kenyan Christian music.  Friday and Saturday we had the crusade in the front grassy area of our property.  Unfortunately, it rained a lot on Saturday and we had very few people because of that.  On Sunday, Jimmie Gait, a local Kikuyu artist, came to sing.  He is often used by Safaricom and other companies for advertising.  He was a good guy and he promoted Pastor Safari and the church.  He is most known for Muhadara ("Problems" in Kikuyu).  His music is very popular among the Kenyans and he sings in a mixture of English, Swahili and Kikuyu (a local tribal language).

The great Ushers -- there were no incidents because of their hard work
