Last Tuesday, June 15th, I took my first trip into the slums. This time around we weren’t going to be doing any intentional evangelizing, but just getting a feel for it. Lets take a few steps back. Woke up in the morning, got on the bus, drove on a long, bumpy road, and saw a new part of Nairobi. Almost everyone here walks. There are a lot of cars, but many more pedestrians than vehicles. A lot of guys pull these carts full of miscellaneous items along the road. The best way I can describe them are like miniature trailers, but a man pulling them instead of a vehicle.

This week we have been working on a church that has been run down and also walking around the city Kiserian ministering and evangelizing. I am really enjoying the work we are doing. Yesterday I went into a small pub and I told the bartender and the people sitting around about Jesus and how important it is to have Jesus in your life, I wish I could say that they asked Jesus into their hearts but unfortunately they didn’t but i could tell God was dealing with them because the bartender, a guy probably about my age was about to cry, but what God told me was that although he didn’t...

We’re living in a hostile, not tents, have toilets, toilet paper, beds, cold showers, and regular transportation. Visa prices were cut in half and customs lets us through without having to check our bags. And there are hardly any mosquitoes. Souls have already been won over to Christ, God’s already healed people, including myself (not a serious ailment, family), and the community amongst our group is definitely one of the...
