Patience

The first day of training camp, I heard God whisper the word, “patience” in my ear. At first, I was hesitant to believe that it was really God speaking to me and not just a random thought that popped into my mind. But, throughout the past few weeks, God has continually been whispering (sometimes shouting) that same word to me, asking me to trust in Him with all of my heart and to patiently wait for Him to move in my life and the lives of those around me. About two weeks ago, we traveled to Iganga to a school/orphanage called Hope Home. I have to admit that at this point of the...

Hello family, friends, and prayer supporters. We have had a wonderful month here in Granada and are finishing up our last week of ministry. We will be flying back to the States on Thursday. We will not have the opportunity to communicate again until we have landed stateside. So, before we leave, we would like to share with you some of the highlights from our last week of ministry: Today we were able to visit one of the local nursing homes. We had a wonderful time interacting with the patients and helping them with their daily exercises. Yesterday was our day off. We were able to visit the...

I just spoke with Scott (Team Leader) in Kenya and everyone is doing very well on the team! They are enjoying some of their last moments with the kids and Pastor they have been with! They are all loving Kenya and tomorrow the leaders have planned a ‘suprise’ for them! They will be in route back to Nairobi this evening and will be settling in these last couple of days to get ready to come back home! Thanks for all the prayers for this team!

Hey everyone! I hope you’re all doing well! This is Anna, I just wanted to share about an experience I had a week or so ago when our team went to visit the hospital. So, our team went to do hospital ministry (praying for the sick) and eventually we ended up in the children’s ward. The children’s ward is always a difficult place for me to be. Seeing the sick and hurting is always difficult, and even more so when it is babies who are the ones hurting. I find myself asking, “Why, God??” a lot. Summer and I stopped beside a lady who was sitting on the floor...

God has been doing amazing things in Kenya. I LOVE the kids here! Especially in the slums. They are awesome at soccer here. But I am awesomer! (It helps that I am 3 times bigger than them) God has seriously broken me down and is just starting to build me back up and I could not imagine a better place for him to do that in than Nairobi. Love you guys see you in a few weeks.God bless, Nick

Sorry for the delay in updates! we have been busy. God is very good to team Kenya. We have fantastic ministy partners in Deliverance Church Southlands and they are gracious hosts as well. The team has spent the last few days ministering to disabled adults, VBS in a slum, Sports Evangelism and speaking to kids in Public Schools. We are able to present a Bible story, sing songs and speak about our general lives as Americans. The great thing is the church is able to follow up with the kids in the schools and the church is nearby. It is a delight to be able to share the word of God in a public...
