Out of my comfort zone!




Last year I came to Kenya on my first mission trip and so I did it again this year.  My church, Connect Church in Arlington, TX,  has partnered with Maasai Corner to put on a pastors conference. Thursday  was a amazing night with worship, testimony, and breaking bread. There are fifty pastors from Kenya and other countries that have come to this conference. Chris, Pastor Chondo, Brandon, and I shared our testimony. Thats right, I shared my story with pastors. I am not a big fan of public speaking but I am thankful I got the opportunity to do it. Mission trips will take you out of your comfort zone. It is a wonderful experience spiritually.

I will never be the same!

The team from South Carolina has been in Kenya about a week now.  I have really enjoyed seeing their pictures and just wanted to share a few words from Pastor Kent. Thank you ARBC for sharing the love of God with the Kenyan people! God bless you.

Today we visited 4 Church plants inland Kenya: Msuri Fellowship (pastor Isaiah), Mwakalanga Fellowship (pastor Julius), Mteza Fellowship (Pastor Peter) and Dzomba Fellowship (Pastor Gladson). We also visited a government school so we could understand better what Real4Christ is offering children here in Kenya. We took off road safari vans to access these churches that are down mountain paths, crossing rivers, and waiting on grazing herds, and narrow passages... there was so much love for people and God, it was amazing. I will never be the same. "if you are not careful to listen, you might miss the voice of God." (Chris Moore, through tears, after worshiping with Dzomba Fellowship today)... If I had not come to Kenya, I would have missed just that.... "Go, send or disobey!" __John Pipe....Kent Williams

These rocks are used as seats for the children in the government school.
