A new thing Breaks forth !

Have you ever yearned for a fresh new experience in life? Have you ever itched with ever present readiness to break out of your normal routine and embrace the fresh new experience in life? That was me in the month of September. So far I can reckon that God has been faithful in granting me this desire. A new thing breaks forth!

September 2016

 Time for new experience, Fresh adventure! Sometimes you have to break out of the norm, that has been the conviction in me. After a successful youth for Christ training in August , I felt charged and ready for a new experience in Ministry and so with the help f my friend Pastor Ben , I moved to Tenwek in Bomet county some 230 km south west of Nakuru which is in the south rift region (Not very far from Masai Mara ! I had to point that one out)

Settling in a new Town in a different culture is not easy. I moved into this new area by faith. Its not that I had been posted by an organization or something but just took a simple step of faith knowing that this area is rife with opportunities, both for ministry, business and some part time job here and there/ It s a bold step but as I write this , things are piecing up nicely.

Lords House of Hope snack party

September 17th: we were scheduled to have a snack party for the kids at the Lords house of Hope in Dagorreti Nairobi. This means that I had to board a matatu (Public transport in Kenya) all the way to Nairobi to take charge of this event. What a day it was! We did team building, sports and snacking. The climax of it all was the brief twenty minutes at the end where Mike and I had prepared a sermonete entitled “Don’t go back to the pigs” (Luke 15) based on the story of the prodigal son .

We did it differently this time. A new thing breaks forth Indeed!

      

 

Snack party was fun! Little things done with a big heart goes a long way!

 

 

 

 

Tunza

We were able to visit Mama Tunza Home to check on our little Bothers and sisters and to bring them greetings from Henry and Kim in Canada

 

October 2016

I have done a month already in Tenwek! What an adventure. I came here suffering from a re infection of Brucellosis and strange type of Amoeba.

Before 2016 came, I had visited the hospital only twice or thrice for the last ten years. This year had not been so kind to me on matters health. For I had done four trips in and out of hospital since March.

I thank God for the world class health facility here in Tenwek (Tenwek Hospital) we finally nailed it and slowly and steadily am getting back to my full health.

 

 At the waiting bay n the Hospital

Litein Boys High school/ kiptewit girls high school/ Sacred Hills girls

It was a mission organized by Pastor Ben a colleague of mine at he Moved by Love foundation. It was a great outing on Sunday as we engaged the boys on a talk of Music, the modern trends and the fascination the young people have with celebrities.

 

 

Later in the afternoon we reached out to the girls at kiptewit girls high school and sacred hills girls school in the nearby town and engaged them in some straight talk on matters sexuality, premarital sex and self esteem issues, In Kenya such talks are important especially when the kids are about to go home for their long holidays where they are exposed to these vices out there.

We can’t seem to forget our little brothers and sisters from Mama Tunza

and Lords House of Hope home. We plan to visit and give the candidates success cards as hey prepare to sit for their national primary schools exams. It’s a wonder to behold what God is doing in their lives as some of them came to these homes dejected and malnourished but now have grown exponentially and are now due for their biggest exams ever. We pray that the same God who began a good work in them will continue perfecting his good purpose in them.

Remarks

I covet your prayers as I enter November. Ministry in Zambia excites me and challenges me in an equal breadth. How I covet your prayers as I mobilize a team of four for this great outing.

Pray that God will continue to furnish us with the resources we need to carry out this great task.

I pray for a new thing to break forth in your life wherever you are as God envelops and embraces you in his grace.
