May 2023 📣 Shelby Family in Kenya - May Graduations & other Happenings 📣


Hello from the Shelby Family. Thank you for your prayers for our travel back to the States for furlough.  We have been able to see most of our family and catch up with friends in our home church in Jacksonville, Arkansas. We are also getting our presentation, display board, and prayer cards updated. We will be able to send these out to you and have them available on our website as soon as we get them finished. We are also getting our medical check-ups and appointments started with Luke’s physiotherapy and Tonya’s B-12 and Iron infusions. We are thankful that getting appointments are much easier than it was shortly after Covid.  Please pray that Tonya will be able to get all of the treatments that she needs because her levels were really low upon our arrival, since it has been several years since her last full course of treatments due to the problems with travel and restrictions during the Covid years.  

This month we will be having two graduations, first, Caleb will be graduating from Bethel Baptist College with a Bachelor degree on May 7th, and he will then take part in a couple of internships with Jewish Awareness Missions and IBJM.  He will be very busy and will use these opportunities to start moving in the next steps of following the will of God for his life. Please pray that God will open doors and give guidance and wisdom through these opportunities. We have attached a letter from him explaining these opportunities.

Also, Kay-Leigh, our last one at home will be graduating from Jacksonville Christian Academy on may 12th, here at our home church and will be able to travel with us for the summer. She is praying about the direction on College and other steps in her life. Please remember her in prayer. Her graduation announcement is also attached.

We plan to return to Kenya in February 2024. If you would like us to schedule a meeting while in your area, please send us a message by e-mail (mail@shelbysinkenya.org) as soon as possible, and we will work out the dates.

Thank you so much for your prayers and support for our family and ministry.

For Souls in Kenya,


Luke & Tonya Shelby
