stumbling and to present you blameless before the presence of his glory with
great joy, to the only God our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be all
glory, majesty, dominion, and authority, before all time and now and forever
Amen. Jude 24-25
Kenya, much to
our chagrin early yesterday morning. I cannot believe how fast our time here
came and went. Our month has been incredible as we partnered with Deliverance Church, Kiboso Rd. to reach out to their
community. I know God did equally great things in us as through us.
Things Jesus did through
us this month:
different orphanages.
Walked door to door through the
community and told people about his love for them and prayed with them receive
that love.
Visited 24 schools, spoke to
crowds of secondary school (high school) children, and began a friendship with
259 of these youths as they gave their lives to him for the first time.
Freed over 10 inmates from the
hopeless incarceration of spiritual depravity and separation from himself, and
healed those inmates of physical illnesses.
Met every Sunday with the young adults of Deliverance Church
for studying his Word, praying together, encouraging each other, and playing
games.
Taught in Sunday school classes and sang in the choir every weekend at Deliverance Church.
Spoke to 4th, 5th,
6th and 8th grade girls from Living Streams
Primary School about how
a woman of God faces challenges, handles relationships with the opposite sex, overcomes
family problems, and accepts who she is in Christ Jesus.
Played games, sang songs, prayed
for, and encouraged primary school children from Living Streams
Primary School almost
daily.
Washed chairs and curtains by hand
for Deliverance Church.
Primary School every
Saturday and Sunday for
studying God’s Word, praying together, encouraging each
youth, and playing games.
Sat with widows, heard their cries
and hardships, encouraged, prayed for and empowered them to continue living
with the Lord as their closest companion.
And lastly, Jesus showed the young
adults of Kisumu a different side of himself and a new freedom, joy and life
that is available to them through the example of our lives and testimonies.
teen from Deliverance
Church:
“I don’t want you people to leave. Look at
how much life you brought here. Everything is so much brighter. We will never
forget you. When will you people be coming back?”
And now may the grace of our Lord Jesus
Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you
all. 2Cor 13:14
