Trip to Nakuru

Sunday, 19 April 2009

We serve a risen savior; he’s in the world today. King Jesus is alive and at work in the hearts of many. Rejoice with us in what he is doing here in our corner of the world. I have been on two ministry trips recently that I’d like to share with you. I drove my little Toyota to the dry area we’ve been telling you about called Mwingi District. I stayed again at the Tei Wa Yesu Health Centre…

 

Sultan Hamud

Last Sunday I visited a new church plant in a town called Sultan Hamud. This small trading center is only two hours away from Nairobi on the road to the coastal town of Mombasa.

Pray for Our Son Steve

In our recent update we asked you to pray for our son Steve and his desire to get to Jerusalem in the next two weeks for Biblical studies. I asked him for more details so we would better know how to pray and help.

Christmas Season in Kenya

Wednesday, 24 December 2008

Is it the Christmas season? Most of the prompts we are used to in the U.S. are not here- lots of Christmas music, cold weather, snow, homes decorated with lights and the like. But, unfortunately, Christmas is becoming more commercial…
