Serving in Salgaa


After getting off to a late start (they were quite amused that the wazungus were late as it is usually a Kenyan trait to not be quite on time), we headed out to Bible Study at Salgaa. We met in a small room and had a lesson on spiritual warfare. It was encouraging to see the growth in these new Christians as they have now been meeting together to study the bible and encourage each other for about 9 months. We split into two groups and visited several support group members who were ill. We also got the chance to pray with a woman who was discouraged because she and her husband had not been able to have children. It was a blessing to minister and pray together. We know God hasn't given up on Salgaa and He is working together for their good. We then went back to the church for the support group meeting. There was a student that needed to make a final presentation for a class so she came and shared with the group about cancer causes and prevention. We had to leave early because we were going to stop by the local IDP camp and the baby centre water project. So unfortunately Colleen and Donna, who had worked so hard on their presentation, were not able to share it today. The team was exhausted after ministering all morning but were happy to have been able to help with such a valuable ministry.
