We serve an amazing God!
Yesterday was the very first service of a NEW church plant in the Village of Kegogi. We have been holding a Bible study in this village every Sunday afternoon for the past 6 months & we have been averaging around 20 each week.
Well, after visiting & passing out tracks & flyers all day Saturday, we saw the Lord bless our first service! We had 47 in attendance & 1 man accepted Christ as his Savior. Several others raised their hands admitting that they knew they needed salvation, but they didn't come forward.
Please pray for this brand NEW church in Kegogi & for these precious souls that still need to be saved. We will be visiting as many of them as possible this coming Saturday!
This week is Bible College week here at Calvary BC in Kisii Town. It is also exam week, and classes are usually finished a bit earlier than normal. So, Luke had been planning to have an evangelistic meeting out in the Village of Kegogi, where we have started a Bible study since returning to Kenya in June.
So this afternoon, Luke, 3 Pastors, & 3 of our current graduates went out to the village to preach at the open market. It has been raining all week, and we have been praying that it would NOT rain today; so that the Gospel could be preached to many people. Well...it was raining as all of the men loaded up in our vehicle & headed out to the village. Luke said that it rained all the way there. But when they got the vehicle parked & were ready to start getting the sound system & things setup, the rain stopped! God DOES answer prayers!
There were so MANY people at that market today, despite the rain. And all of those 1,000+ people heard a very clear presentation of the Gospel in their language! Now not all 1,000 were gathered around the preachers, but the sound system is powerful enough to cover that entire area clearly.
Of those that did gather close around the preaching, over 75 people raised their hands saying they wanted to accept Christ as their personal Savior!
What an AWESOME God we serve! Thank you to those of you who were praying for our ministry TODAY!
