On my way back from Mozambique to the US, I visited Silas and Rahab in Kenya. They are involved in many wonderful ministries, such as training pastors, doing Bible studies, and hosting youth camps.
Left to right - Silas & Rahab and I, along with the special education teacher, and the school Principal.
We visited two schools where they are showing the love of Jesus to the teachers, staff, and students as they sponsor children in need, so that they are able to finish their high school education.
Rahab invited me to her mother's home for their weekly women's Bible study and prayer time.
Her sister made chapatis for us.
Delicious chapatis and chai.
I was blessed to share about my life and about the power of prayer.
What a lovely group of ladies.
We passed by the Great Rift Valley.
We also visited with some members from one of the churches of Pastor Frederick (front middle), who Silas and Rahab serve with. They're doing a great work discipling leaders and planting churches in this area.
They gave me the opportunity to share about how I came to believe in God, and how He called me to serve Him in Africa. We had a special time of prayer together.
Joyful women :)
We stopped by another church to meet Nancy, Pastor Frederick's wife. One of the people there heard that I had come from Mozambique, and he showed me a very old Mozambican bill, which his son had found on the ground in Kenya!

What a special visit with Kenyans, Silas and Rahab, who are loving and serving God's beloved people in Kenya.
Before I had left the US, my sister-in-law, Amy, texted me at the airport telling me about a Kenyan organization that cleans up pollution from beaches, mostly tons of old flip-flops, and turns them into works of art. When I was in the airport leaving Kenya, I saw one of these colorful pieces of art!

I praise God for this time in Africa, and I thank you so much for your prayer! God helped me in everything, both in challenges and in blessings, and He gave me many opportunities to share His love and truth shown in Jesus.
