Linda's blog for Monday

I'm blogging at the same time as Catherine about our time in Korogocho at a maternity clinic. What an interesting day we had. We were shown around the clinic by Ceri. I had hoped and said that I intended to hold a baby before we left and thought my hopes were dashed when we were outside preparing to leave, a lady walked out of the clinic with a baby in her arms and looked straight at me and said "do you want to hold the baby". Wow. Hadn't spoken to her previously, she hadn't said hello, just do you want to hold. Cedric was beautiful. Also almost saw a baby being born. However the the lady believed she was spiritually cursed to have a bad birth. We felt we needed to pray which we did. God has used us much whilst we've been here.
