Day 8 & 9 Mtepeni


Wow! we are at the end. It is difficult to put into words the feelings in my heart. I am so thankful for the MANNA ministries, Real 4 Christ and the work they are doing here. The Lord touched my heart unbelievably on Tuesday when we saw Mercy and Paul who was the liaison between the states and Kenya during her surgery. My heart was filled when I saw her running, jumping and smiling. Another highlight was buying drums for past Allen's work. They were so excited to be able to enhance their music program. The clinic day was also a bonus when we gave all the children and workers tetanus shots. Even though we couldn't explain the process to the kids, they did fairly well. It is unthinkable that these kids have never had any inoculations. In the sates, we would be appalled. We are so blessed!!! Thank you church for your prayers and support while we have been here.

It’s our last night in Africa. As I look back on the week, I am thankful for the many blessings we have received from our Kenyan brothers and sisters and grateful to our Mungu (God) for this opportunity. The gospel of Jesus Christ is spreading across this region and the Kenyan believers are very passionate and real in their worship. I love listening to the little children sing praises to God in English and Swahili. The greatness of God came to life this week. The same God we worship, serve, turn to in times of need, etc. in America is the same God that the Kenyans worship, serve, and turn to in their times of need. He is so big that he cares for each of us and hears us in our own language. Greg Wagner was leading a lady through the sinner’s prayer on Saturday and needed two interpreters due to the different tribal dialects. I could not get close to the door where they were gathered due to the amount of mud/puddles and small amount of dry area around the door so I stood back a little ways and prayed for Greg and the woman hearing the gospel. At one time God heard each of the English, two variations of Swahili, and knew the heart of each of us and cared deeply for each person there and we were just a small part of everything going on in the world. Our Mungu is truly a GREAT and MIGHTY GOD and I am thankful for the opportunity to be a small part of what He is doing here in Kenya. We love you all and we are looking forward to arriving back in Texas on Tuesday. Thank y’all for your prayers. God Bless.
