ALOT THAT GOD HAS SHOWN ME!!

It has been quite some time since I updated my blog.  Please accept my apologizes.  I will try and bring you up to date on what the last 2 months have looked like.

Praise the LORD.  Praise the LORD, O my soul.  I will praise the LORD all my life; I will sing praise to my God as long as I live. Psalm 146:1-2

April was filled with alot of farewells, and transitions as I prepared to come to the US for home assignment.
I share with you some of the loved ones that have been such a part of my life for almost four years.
IN SUDAN

 Joy, Kamal, and Sani
 Buls, Rhoda, Kamal and Deborah
 My Mabaan daughter Sani and my Mabaan son Daud
Samoni

KENYA Free Baptist in Kayaba Slums
 My good friend Alice
 A beautiful sister in Christ

Muranga Town, Rural Pastor/Women's conference


 No ladders
 
 No electric or gas cookers, everything is done over open fire.  Nothing is easy
They cut up enough cabbage to feed over 200 people

Since December there has been many opprotunities to be a part of what God is doing.  My hearts desire is to be in Sudan, but God has given me the opportunty to be a part of what He is doing in Kenya.  The relationships He has given are wonderful but also hard, as I have had many farewells, and there have been alot of tears shed not only from me but from all of those God has brought into my life.  I would not change anything. 

There is such a hunger in Sudan and Kenya to know God deeper, and to be able to be a part of the Pastor's conference was a blessing and a priviledge. 

"He upholds the cause of the oppressed and gives food to the hungry.  The LORD sets prisoners free, the LORD gives sight to the blind, the LORD lifts up those who are bowed down, the LORD loves the righteous.  The LORD watches over the alien and sustains the fatherless and the widow, bu He frustrates the ways of the wicked." Psalm 146:7-9
