Needing Prayers Once Again!
Please pray for protection for everyone on our Kenya team who leave on June 18th and come back the 30th. We stay in Nairobi the first night and the last night there, traveling to several other places in between. Nairobi has had bombings six times since the first of the year - the last one being last week at a very popular shopping center where we just happen to always go to buy musical equipment for our churches. The Somalian Muslim group that is aligned with Al Qaeda has taken responsibility for all these explosions.
We will stay away from the downtown area, although I really wanted to take the team there. But we need protection and wisdom on this trip, more so than usual.
Also, we will be taking an innercountry flight up to the Sahara desert region in northern Kenya this year to install water filters and to minister in a couple churches up there. It's extremely hot, and I think the idea of scorpions and snakes has freaked me out as much as the terrorists. Ha!
Anyway, we would appreciate all prayers!

Titus2woman on AFF
"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

Re: Needing Prayers Once Again!
yep! praying for protection, for unity in your group, for you to be a blessing to everyone you come in contact with, and for people to see Jesus in each one of you.
