Prayer for Our Trip

Today, we are making a family trip out to western Kenya to a village/very small town called Butula.  We are going to visit a national pastor and his family out there and to hold a special meeting for them in their church.  Pastor Ephraim was sent out of Karen Baptist Church last year as a missionary.  He felt God called him to start a church in his own village, Butula. 

I am excited about making this trip not only to encourage that pastor and his wife and family, but also to see some more of Kenya.  As I've mentioned on here before, I really have a heart for villages, for the more rural areas as that is what I grew up in. 

I'm sure I will be bringing back lots of pictures for a post about our trip.  Please keep us in your prayers today.  We will be out there Saturday and Sunday, and will make the drive back on Monday.

Handmade gifts from Grandma in New Guinea--that's Mom to me!

I love my shawl!

 

A little warm for the tropics--Mom made them more with furlough in mind.  But Seth absolutely loves them!  He even wore them to bed the other night and wanted to wear it all to church too!

Even his Duckie got to wear his new duds.

Adorable!
