1. The 2-week modular Bible School will be in session next week. I teach the 3rd segment of Homiletics. Each student will have a chance to preach and this will be his/her exam for what has been learned in the first 2 sessions. Pray for students who travel from all over Kenya to Kericho on Monday (Nov. 30) and for the time of Bible School that students will learn and put into practice what they have learned.
3. God’s presence was very much evident and we know that God answered prayer for Bishop Nixon as he lead his first annual conference. Highlands Annual Conference will begin on Thursday and we trust God to continue to make his presence known
4. Ethnic clashes between pastoral communities due to cattle rustling are intensifying in the Isiolo area. Local people claim that the clashes have been politically motivated to create instability in the area and to destabilize the “constituency boundaries” so that political candidates can have an advantage over their opponents. Pray for stability and peace – the elections aren’t until 2012!
5. Continue to pray for transformed hearts and lives that reflect the character of Christ.
Debbie,
You are often in our prayers. We look forward to hearing from you once you arrive at Eldoret. Esther is still with us. I was able to get a Kenya Christian radio station on internet for her, so she is delighted to get news from back home and listen to local programming from Nairobi.
Blessings,
Keith and Gael

Praise the Lord for this powerful way of sharing praises and prayer requests. As a result of this, God is answering prayer in an amazing way.
