Leaving for Africa Tomorrow
Please pray for Eddie and me as we leave for Kenya tomorrow night. We'll be gone until the 24th, doing a pastor's conference in Bungoma and dedicating our new Love and Truth headquarters church in Bukempe. This will be the first time we've gone by ourselves, without the other couple who has been so many times, so it will be a new experience.
Kenya has gone through so much turmoil since the election fiasco in December, but God is healing their land and the people. We are taking them 170 pounds of clothing, mostly children's, for the pastors' families. We will also try to give them each some money if we are able. The conference will be free to all 28 L & T pastors/wives because we got sponsors for them. Also, we got money to buy about 70 bicycles for pastors while we're there, so that's exciting. There will be about 150 pastors total at the conference, plus wives.
We will be installing a "Bishop" over Love and Truth in Eastern Africa while we're there. He will now have authority to interview new pastors, discipline them as needed, etc. rather than having to depend on us from a very long distance.
Anyway, we need much prayer for safe travels, and for protection from stomach issues and disease.
