"Sing to the Lord a new song, sing to the Lord all the earth. Sing to the Lord, praise His name, proclaim His salvation day after day. Declare His glory among the nations, His marvelous deeds among all people." - Psalm 96:1-3
Jambo from Kenya!! God is so good and He is working in mighty ways! We spent Saturday, Sunday, and Monday at Maasai Corner in Shimba Hills near Ukunda, Kenya. It is so amazing to see the growth of that property in a few short years! Two years ago, when I first came to Kenya, Maasai Corner was a church that met under a mango tree. Today God has grown Chris and Lisa Moore's ministry into a church, a clinic, a feeding center and recently a school with over 70 beautiful children!
We spent Saturday going hut to hut and spreading the gospel around the villages. Sunday we worshiped with Pastor Chondo and his church, singing praises and hearing the word of God! Donald gave the message and Pastor Chondo translated. One man, who was previously a Muslim, gave his life to Christ during the service and then he was baptized alongside three other new believers after the service. Four guys on our team (Clay, Tom, Mark, and Ethan) got to baptize them! What a neat way to welcome new believers into the family of God, all the way here in Kenya!! After church we held a clinic for the people in need while others on our team played with the children and shared the gospel! Monday we got to spend time with the precious school children at Maasai Corner! We played with them and held another clinic where we were able to give all the children immunizations.
God has put many people in our path that we can share His story with! From the airports, to the plane rides, at the schools, and on the trails in Kenya, we are declaring the glory of God to the nations! Thank you for your prayers and support! Please continue to pray that we will be the hands and feet of Christ in whatever ways possible!
Mungu Akubariki (God Bless You)!
