Don and the team were on the road for 13 days. They traveled to Sherati, a town very close to the Kenya boarder. Sherati was a small town, but the response to the Gospel was not. There were 1300 people who filled out cards that they were either getting saved or giving their hearts back to God! Praise HIM!
Don was playing with the children.
I don't know who is cuter....Don or the children of Sherati.
Don had to deal with one setback. The trailer brakes, on his truck were not working. After many hours of work, he figured out that the problem was some spare parts he had just replaced. The parts were bad. This is one of the frustrations he has to face on a regular basis. There are lots of fake cheap parts that are sold as original.
This is what happens when the teenagers have a week off from school....The boys spring a rubber snake on Lilian.....I have to take some of the blame. I bought the snake to wake up one of the Bible College students that keeps falling asleep in class.
Don is going on another ministry trip on Monday. He is heading to a very small village with Paul Troquille, Reggie Moffett, and Dru Brents. Please pray for them.
This was from my devotional time this week:Steve Hill, "In order to weep in the fields, we must first move to the field. Sadly most of us never make it past the front gate. Watchman Nee, once wrote, "In a world system darkened with the smoke of the pit, how we rejoice to meet saints who are fresh with the clean air of heaven".
The religious leaders clamored and complained about Jesus' life style, constantly spitting accusations against Him. "This man receives sinners and eats with them," they protested (Luke 15:2), And indeed, Jesus was guilty as charged. He lived in the smoking section. His garments were constantly darkened by the smoke of the pit, while His heart remained clean with the fresh air of heaven.
"Likewise, Watchman Nee spent abundant time, with sinners, he too lived in the smoking section. And he knew how refreshing it is to have a clean shower from heaven after a long, hard day of toil in the dusty fields on earth. Are you consumed with the plight of man? Do you dine with deceivers? Can you converse with the condemned? Are you a friend of sinners? Do you often smell like smoke? " We ought to weep because we have no tears for the lost", proclaimed Leonard Ravenhill. "We ought to get down before God and repent that we've no broken heart. A wet-eyed preacher can never preach a dry-eyed sermon."
Steve Hill, Time to Weep, pages 170-171
"Be merciful to those who doubt; save others by snatching them from the fire; to others show mercy, mixed with fear—hating even the clothing stained by corrupted flesh.” (Jude 1:22, 23 NIV)
