50 years mug shots

Nairobi Baptist Church was founded 50 years ago today and we had a big celebration. From 20 people of 4 nationalities (mostly Brits) it has grown to 3-4,000 with over 40 nationalities and mostly Kenyan. In addition, a number of daughter churches have been created in various parts of Nairobi. A few of the original members are still around or came back to visit.

I eventually succumbed and bought a souvenir mug. I was surprised and fascinated by the great change in colour when I add hot water; I have seen these things before but never such a startling change. (White is hot but the really curious effect is when I run cold water over a hot mug; the fleeting green pattern is really odd!) The flash photo tends to show the green as lighter than it really is.
