Violence in Kenya


In case you're like me and don't always keep a close tab on news, Odinga recently won an election in Kenya. However, his competitor Kibaki claims the election was rigged. Riots have now broken out and some tribal violence (Odinga & Kibaki are members of tribes with a history of rivalry) has been incited with death tolls up to 486 today.

Here's a link to check it out some more:

My church sponsors a village in Kenya, along with some 2,000 children there. I don't know yet if they have been affected by this, but please be thinking of and praying for our brothers & sisters in Kenya.
