Kenyan pastor #3

This country never really addresses these issues [tribalism, poverty, and spiritual crisis] but keeps sweeping them under the carpet. Right now there are multiple calls for “Peace, Peace”, but as has been said “Peace that is not founded on Justice cannot last. And Justice at the expense of Peace is a terrible burden”.

But Kenyans will likely sweep this one under the carpet too, and not deal with the real issues. So at the next elections it will resurface again . . . or sooner than that, and tip us over the abyss that was Rwanda.

Anyway – we now have a huge humanitarian crisis we are trying to deal with. As a church we responded quickly, and people were very generous . . . but this will be a long-term crisis because so many were displaced and all their earthly possessions burnt down. Sigh.
