Sunday, Dec 4

This being Sunday, we were so looking forward to seeing Pastor Isaac at the AIC Imani Sirwo church in Sibanga and then having lunch with him and his beautiful family afterwards. God, it seems, had other plans. Pastor Isaac called us on Saturday evening and told us he had been unable to get transport out of Nairobi so he was unable to be with us for worship – BUMMER! The past two times we have visited Kenya, we have not been able to connect with him. Their worship was incredible! I don’t think there was a single person who didn’t share a song with us. We gave Bibles to the youth who are in high school grades, explaining that the knowledge they gained in school was valuable but that which they received from the Bible was invaluable. After the service had ended, Pastor Isaac’s wife, Grace, along with his children, Louise and Emmanuel, were our guests for lunch at Zippy’s home. We enjoyed some great fellowship with Grace while watching the children play football (soccer) after our meal. We walked the Gikonyo family down the lane into the marketplace and said our goodbyes, continuing on to the LCM church which was having prayers. After worshipping with them in their rental building, we walked with them down another lane to a piece of land they have purchased and are constructing their own building. We thanked God for what He has done and asked for his blessing on the work. After a long day, we arrived back on the farm just at 7:00PM which is when Zippy likes for everyone to be in for the evening. Did we mention this was an INCREDIBLE day of worship?????
