| What a great mission tour to Kenya again! I am on my way home from two fantastic weeks with meetings and seminars in several parts of the country. I just thank God for all his blessings, and I rejoice over all the great people I have met. Startup among the Samburu people. The first weekend I had the pleasure to visit Maralal again. We stayed in a new Lodge on Ngari Hills, overlooking the town. The church had invited some of the neighbor churches and the large building was packed with people. I was preaching in the service in the morning, and after a lunch I had two seminars in the afternoon. It was great to hear many different of the Samburu singing groups praising God in their colorful clothes. In the seminars I was speaking about the need to reach every tribe and people group with the Gospel, and to be a witness of Jesus we need the power of the Holy Spirit, and Jesus told his disciples to wait in Jerusalem for this power. The power came on the day of Pentecost and is available for us today. Very many in the church had not yet received this power and spoken in new tongues as the Bible speak about, and as we prayed a great number of the people present received the power of the Holy Spirit and there were joy and dancing in the church! |
 I am now on my way home from a great mission tour to South Sudan. I am very thankful to the Lord Jesus Christ for his love and mercy and for the rich blessings he gave us in meetings and seminars.
Two great days with the pastors and church leaders. After having finished the two days with the Members of Parliament, we started the last training in The students2Million Leaders Mandate Volume I. The participants are full of excitement and they are just hungry for more. We learn from Maxwell that a leader is a learner, and now diplom1they are just looking forward to starting Volume II next year. We had the training in Juba Christian Centre also this time, and Fermo Ogilla from Every Home for Christ and his team had arranged everything great. The last day we had the graduation with giving out of the Certificates, and we had 47 leaders that had finished all the 6 seminars over a period of approximately 3 years. In the picture you see pastor Charles from Yambio receiving his Certificate. Behind is our organizer, Fermo Ogilla.  I just came back from an exciting mission tour to Kenya and South Sudan. It was such a great opportunity for me to meet Christian leaders and churches in both countries, and meet new and old friends.
Leadership seminars in Embu, Kenya. After having arrived in Nairobi I was picked at the airport by my close friend and coworker for many years, Pastor Geoffrey Muthinja. The next day we drove to Embu where I lived some months with my family in 1974. Here I had two great days with about 45 leaders from East Africa Pentecostal Churches. I have been working together with many of them in the ministry for many, many years, and they are my close friends. I have a deep respect for the fruits of their labor in the Lords Kingdom for many years. We had a tremendous time there in the presence of the Lord, and I felt led by the Lord to remind them how important it is to focus on the main thing – bringing souls to Jesus, being fishers of men and preparing the church for the soon returning Christ Jesus. |
