Learning from the Leadership



This morning Pastor Isaac took us to meet with some of the AIC (Africa Inland Church) leadership for this region. We met with Pastor Titus and Rebecca who are working closely with Joyce Strong to prepare for the women’s conference she is leading in August. We also met McCray, who is over the schools, and Filda, who is the office worker. After singing some praise and worship songs we prayed with them about their work as well as specific individual needs.

From here Pastor Isaac took us to the home of Eliud, the director of the Tumaini (two-my-een-e) Orphanage, which we visited on Monday. Eliud was in a terrible head-on accident in which the driver of another car crossed over to Eliud’s side of the road and caused a head-on collision in which he and his passenger were killed. Only Eliud survived but he had a severely broken leg, which required metal plates to repair. Although he is home, his recovery is slow and he receives no income while he is away from his work at the orphanage. Eliud’s son and daughter are helping take care of their father, so a meal was prepared for us and then we prayed for Eliud’s healing.
