June Prayer Letter

Praise –

The entire month of May found me in Nairobi waiting for Karo’s baby to be born. As I did so, I hosted many in my home:

• Cyndi and her friend, Vera, stayed with me a couple of days
• Rose and Sammy spent a weekend with me
• George, Linet, and their boys came for a spaghetti lunch
• The guys in my homegroup came for lasagna and birthday cupcakes

Karo also stayed at my house overnight for five weeks in a row to simplify her maternity clinic visits. I reserved one day for a personal prayer retreat. I assisted Cyndi wherever I could, as she got adjusted and settled in Kenya. My homegroup celebrated communion during one of our weekly meetings. Cyndi and I attended Karo and Jeremiah’s church one Sunday morning.

Of course, the biggest praise item is the birth of Joy Elika Kibisu! It’s my privilege to know this couple and to minister to them in various ways. I firmly believe they are jewels in God’s Kingdom and that He’ll use them mightily for His glory!

Prayer –

Life in Kenya can become hectic and too busy just like in the States. Please pray that I’ll maintain a balanced schedule. I don’t ever want to crowd out personal and meaningful time with my Lord.
