our E. Africa region. We'll be at the Brackenhurst Conference Center in the
highlands of Kenya - a beautiful venue surrounded by tea estates. We'll be
there to share our experiences in ministry, to be challenged by our guest
preacher from the US, and be ministered to by a great group of people coming
out from the US. This meeting also gives us opportunity to talk with our
leaders from our regional HQ (South Africa). And for many of us, it is a
time to get medical/dental/eye stuff done that we can't get done where we
live.
What Sally and I like the most is the time to talk with others. We all have
stories of what has worked and not, of mistakes made and what went right.
It's also a time to just have fun together. Some of our people are working
in rather remote areas so this is a time to 'hang out'. And we love the
times of group worship.
This will be our first time to drive 'up' to Kenya from Tanzania. We've
made the trip many times from the Uganda side, but not from here. It will
be three days of driving to get there.
As you are able, please pray for:
- safety on the roads. That the truck will not break, that the roads will
be reasonable, that we and other drivers will be alert.
- for safe travel for the folks coming out from the USA and those from South
Africa
- for all of us to be refreshed physically and spiritually
- for understanding as we learn new things from the Word and from our
leaders
- for safety in the food that we will eat. There is a great staff there but
there is always the risk of food borne illnesses
I'll share more after our meeting.
Daily by His grace...
P.S. We've now completed 12 weeks of Kiswahili language school!
