Mimosa Lane Baptist Kenya Report – November 6, 2009
Posted on November 6, 2009 - Filed Under Mission Reports | Leave a Comment
It is Friday night, and another GREAT day! Karen had a good group at the children’s ministry training, and I had a good group at the Pastor’s Conference this morning, and the participants were so responsive. While we were teaching, our other team members went with their translators out on the streets of Maralal and had the experience of leading 51 people pray to receive Christ. Then, we went to a retirement center for aged adults and a children’s home for the grandchildren of these seniors here in Maralal. These children’s parents are deceased, most dying of AIDS or killed by bandits stealing their cattle. We had the opportunity to minister and speak to the senior adults and distributed candy and the ML teddy bears to over 100 children.
We continue to be burdened by the level of poverty in this place but encouraged by the openness to the gospel. Our team members have all fallen in love with the Samburu people. We have now had the opportunity to lead a total of 72 people to Christ in the past two days. Tomorrow, we have another rough trip to another isolated village area and minister to the adults and children. Please be in prayer as we will be sharing Christ and providing them with water purification systems.
We also continue to be blessed by the ministry of Charlie and Sandra Daniels as we see fruits of their labor since leaving our church to come to this place. Their hospitality has also been a blessing to our team. For those of you who know the Daniels family, you might enjoy knowing that their older sons, Travis and Sam, arrived as we did and we have had opportunity to renew relationship with them.
Again, thank you for your continued prayers. Internet access is very limited but I will continue to update as much as possible…
To God be the Glory, Bob & Africa Team
