This message is from an American woman about to return to East Africa after a Christmas holiday.
We have been in touch with our family and friends in Kenya. They are all safe, and none of them are in areas where violence has broken out. However, because of the situation, there are shortages of food and it is difficult to access money - all of the banks have removed money from the ATMs for fear of looting. One of our friends described it like being under "house arrest" as people are being advised not to leave their houses. Today was the calmest day since the election results were announced. Please pray:
- that the situation would continue to improve and that peace would be restored
- that the political leaders would reach an agreement and not incite people to violence
- for all the people who have been displaced, that they would be able to access food, water, and other basic necessities
