Dear friends,
Thank you for all of your prayers for me as I traveled
great distances from California to Africa! It has been quite an
experience, with a lot of unexpected twists and a few more difficulties
than anticipated... But, God has carried me through it all and I am
blessed to be back on African soil. However, I am not yet back to
Uganda. I spent a week in South Sudan participating in Pioneer's African
Based Orientation program. It was an excellent way to begin a new
season on this continent. The speaker, Duncan, was a Kenyan man with
lots of wisdom and experience. I gained a lot from his teaching and
insight. I am praying for a heart that is able to put these truths into
action. I am convinced that the key to cross-cultural success is a heart
that is yielded to God and is filled with His Holy Spirit. I am praying
for such a heart. God has been reminding me that to have this heart, I
must first die to myself (Phil. 3, 2 Cor. 4:6-12) so that Christ may
live through me. What a beautiful and painful process.
I am
currently in Nairobi, Kenya. On Wednesday I will join a group of
missionaries from various organizations to participate in a Nomadic
Network conference. This conference is a prayer summit for those working
with nomadic people groups of East Africa. I am looking forward to
participating in such a time of prayer and to see all the people that
God has placed in the furthest corners of African communities.
