Last night I enjoyed speaking at the Children's Day service in a Church in Bangor, Northern Ireland...about 1 hour's drive from my home. I thank God for each child who took part and for so many parents who came into the service.
We are delighted that some children recently received certificates for completing all 30 of our Bible lessons. Also, they were presented with Bible Story books. Other children also received Bibles and pencils. The photos below show just a handful of these children.
There is much enthusiasm in Nakuru as the school ministry grows and other ideas for outreach are discussed.
In Uganda planning for our trip is well underway and we are excited to visit this new area.
God has been answering prayer and providing for our financial needs. On Friday we were able to send the deposit to secure the booking of the hire car. We had asked for prayer concerning this, but we hadn't shared the deadline as being the end of May. We were amazed to watch the needed funds come in over the final few days. We continue to pray that God will provide the balance needed. We have no doubt that He will.
Tomorrow (Tuesday) William and I will attend a day conference for Christian workers. The speaker will be a man of God from Nigeria. We have attended this seminar over the past few years and are looking forward to being blessed, encouraged and challenged once more.
MISSION TRIP FOCUS: We are considering a small practical/building project for the future in a School in Kenya. During our next trip we will be meeting with the Principal and staff of the school to discuss this in further detail. Please pray for us all as we meet. Pray that God will give us clear direction over the coming weeks as we think about what will be discussed.
