JAMBO FROM KENYA!!!!!
Wow! I don't even know where to begin! Our week in Kenya has been more of blessing than words could articulate. I'll start with what's on my heart...
The people in Kenya are SUCH a genuine people, filled with indescribable compassion and love. They worship and praise Jesus with purity and live their lives clear from unneccessary distractions and unGodly concerns. Wow! It's been a beautiful testimony and inspiring story to watch!
We've done a lot this week: 3 days of door-to-door evangalism in both Mnarani and Bofa. We've all had beautiful experiences whether it be through prayer for sick, inspiration for believers, opening hearts of nonbelievers, prophecy and conformation of God's spoken words, or ourselves being blessed and inspired by the Kenyan people. They are such a welcoming and joyful peole it's infectious to be around! Our hearts have truly been warmed! We've suffered a little sickness within the team but God is moving and curing our illnesses. Also, we've been working at Oasis Baptist Church in Mnarani helping paint their entrance sign and pillars. Hardwork uplifts you into diligently loving Jesus!
Today is our sabbath! It's been great!! Aren't we so lucky to have a God so great that He gives us a day of rest once a week? YES!
I know everyone loves and misses their family and are all thankful for the love and support back home. As we work for Christ, know your presence is felt and your love received. We do all things in thankfulness for the support you've provided for all the years leading up to this beautiful adventure and necessary mission.
To my family: I LOVE Y'ALL!!! I miss y'all so much!! I am curious if Priscilla has had BP? Jess and Jate...so glad wedding planning is so going great! Your e-mail made me giggle! ;) Mom-pretty much everyone speaks some English and they are so welcoming in hosting us in their country!

Kwahere!!

So encouraging to hear what you guys have been doing and the excitement that you are experiencing. Mom hugs to those who are sick! God works through our weaknesses and infirmities, so that all will know and see the glory of His power, not ours. May God give each of you strength beyond measure in all that you do!
ReplyDeleteI am glad you hear you are doing well. Everyone back home sends well-wishes and misses you dearly. I (your sister, Jessica) am the only one that is having luck responding...so I speak for everyone when I say "Love you bunches. Miss you dearly." We know y'all are doing great work and hope your trip continues to be a success. Don't forget to have a little fun! XOXO
