What a day! Fox River and the Vipingo Team sure put on a great party in Vipingo today! Thank you all for praying and for giving to make this day possible. The weather held with just a few sprinkles for a few minutes. There were so many people there. I'm guessing the count would have been up to 3,000. They really enjoyed the soccer tournament, volleyball tournament, choir contest, acrobats, face painting, bounce house and the free food.
We enjoyed connecting with the friends we met on Thursday and many that we haven't seen since the outreach last year. Guy was able to give the gospel at the awards ceremony. We are praying that fuit will come.
It was hard for me to drive away knowing that it was good bye for another year. God is at work in that place and I am incredibly blessed to be vested with them in what God is doing.
Tomorrow we will be at Crossroads Fellowship in Mombasa where Jim Horne pastors. Their anniversary celebration will be held during the service in the morning. It is an English speaking church and I love worshiping God with these believers. The service is always just the refreshment I need at this point in the trip!
In the afternoon we will be making our last trip to Bomani for the community outreach. We are looking forward to one more opportunity to share the love of God and the love we have for these people.
Thank you for praying for us!

Hi, all! Thanks again, Denise, for bringing it all to life again. I remember what happened at last year's celebration at Vipingo. Did they have a choir competition aain? Was Jackson at the celebration? Has Pastor Paul made it back? So many questions...
ReplyDeleteI continue to pray for your safety and for God to continue working through you.
Praying you will be refreshed and renewed to finish out the final days of your trip. We can't wait to see the pics and hear all the stories.
ReplyDeleteI keep visualizing that huge pile of shoes at the corner of the soccer field and wonder if all got their own shoes back? What a awesome turnout this year. Truly GOD is at work here.Praying for health, and safety for all. Wondering if Roger got his face painted? Also if you have Rashid Mohammed as your driver this year? If so..Please say hello for me and I hope his mother is doing better...What a TEAM you guys make. My love to all...Roman
ReplyDeleteP.S. Miss Donna, I'll have the pleasure of Michael's company for a couple of days this week. Can't wait to hear of his trip to Poland. See you soon...(Hey Rommie)
Hi Roman. Yes, we have Rashid as our driver this year again. I will ask about his mom. We are all doing fine. Roger didn't get his face painted, but he is falling in love with a bunch of kids! :) Denise
