Mobilizing Christians to GO!
Moses & Jo Kariuki – YWAM Missionaries in Kenya & N. Africa
As the family begin to settle and thrive in this new season, we are thankful for the open doors God has given us! It is, as always, a joy to be part of the Kingdom!
Multiplying for Missions – It’s been a privilege for Moses to teach at two Discipleship Training Schools here in YWAM Kenya. During the month of April the children had a 3 1/2 week break (between terms) from school and it was great to be able to do a bit of travelling together - we were able to go as a family and stay at the YWAM base when Moses taught on "The character and nature of God," in the Discipleship Training School at Athi River, just outside of Nairobi, about two hours from our home. Moses also travelled to Mombasa in May for a week, where he taught on Biblical Worldview, and was able to baptize 13 students in the Indian Ocean.
Stirring up the church - We have also been networking with local churches quite a bit, Moses was asked to assist with forming a missions board 'vision/policy' at our home denomination here, which is a work in progress, and of course many invitations to share on Sunday mornings. Also a joy to do a seminar with a Tent-making "Missions-Focus group" from our home church on Kingdom Economics. We are also thankful that Moses' trip to Tanzania to teach in a local church there with Jo's brother went well and was a fruitful time.
The Harvest awaits - in the Sahel and the Maghreb. Chad is continually in our hearts, and we are thankful that the presidential elections, although quite tense, were peaceful. Our staff there are preparing for another DTS this summer. Moses will spend a few weeks with them in July, after attending a North Africa regional leadership meeting followed by a staff conference in Spain.
Kenya Location - As we continue to “find our feet,” in life and ministry here in Kenya, we are thankful. The children have settled into school and begun to make friends and excel in school work. We are so proud of their hard work and willing attitude in all the transitions they have navigated. Our vision to serve across the continent consulting, speaking, Mentoring and Mobilizing continues to unfold
In August, we plan to travel to the US, and look forward to seeing friends and family there. Due to the children’s school schedule, our time there will be fairly short – but we hope to pack it full of friends and family time. We appreciate prayers for provision for Tickets and Travel needs.
Thanks so much for your love, prayers and support!!
Moses and Jo
