Putting on the snorkeling gear. 

These little fishies loved eating bits of banana! 

Preaching in Kiswahili

 Mark preached his first sermon in Kiswahili a few weeks ago. 

He worked hard preparing! 

He will preach Easter Sunday at another church in town. 

Praying for hearts to be open to Jesus as the Word of God is preached.

Trainings

Our team has been involved in lots of Saturday trainings the last few months in a variety of places...training churches in evangelism and beginning discipleship in the mornings and then going out and sharing Jesus in the afternoons. We are grateful for these opportunities to share Jesus and train others to do so, also.  It's been amazing to see people getting excited to tell their neighbors about how to have a relationship with God through Jesus His Son.  And many have said YES to Him! 

Praise God!!

                     Demonstrating he remembers 3 Circles- and how to use it to share Jesus. 

Michael and Melissa, our team leaders. 

Practicing what we are learning by sharing with each other. 

Here is one of the churches where we led a training. 

This woman was one of my evangelism partners and she was very proud to show me her house. 

 

Ladies Fellowship

Melynda had the honor of speaking at the Ladies Fellowship at a partnering church in March. Such a blessing to spend a Saturday afternoon together in the Word of God with these lovely women! 

 

Thank you First Baptist Church of Burden!

This is Mike, a faithful Christ follower who shepherds a growing church and helps run a rehab clinic. He is standing in front of a tuk tuk that helps support the financial side of the clinic. A few months ago it was in an accident and was out of commission for a while until it could be repaired. 

Thank you to First Baptist Church in Burden, KS, for helping with the repairs! It is up and running again. 

Now we ask for your prayers that it will pass inspection and can be used again to help support the finances  at the rehab clinic. 

 

making chipatis

The boys had a lot of fun making chapatis at a new friend's house. Some students from Madylanne's school came to the coast for a cultural learning experience and we enjoyed spending the day together.
