" Jim Elliot Gilly's View I can’t wait for Kenya!!!  Going to Kenya will be like two Christmases in one year.  It will be great to finally be on the plane. I just want to scream out to the Lord and say thank You. I also want to thank all of our supporters and prayer warriors. I hope you know how much we appreciate you guys. I want to especially say thank you to Mr. Robert and Mrs. Angie because they are letting us stay at their house for this month and on future furloughs. I want to thank the Fletchers for taking care of Molly. I love Molly, she is the best dog ever. She is so sweet. I know Jordan is taking good care of her. We are actually talking about getting a friend for Molly once we are in Kenya. It’s going to be a German Shepherd. I want his name to be Eco or maybe Salno. I can’t wait to get him. -Gilly
