Returning to Kenya again!



I am heading back to Kenya. This time for almost 3 months. (Thanks to my gorgeous wife,  Linda, for the 3 month pass). This will be my 7th trip to Kenya since 2009. I truly believe that God has given Kenya a special place in my heart. I simply love the Kenyan people and seeing God at work there, both in their lives and in mine.
This time I will be working with Chosen Children of Promise http://ccpkenya.org
I will be training teachers in technology and helping them integrate it into their school curriculum. I will also assist with linking the school to the CCP office network which is a few km away.

Of course I will catch up with our Kenya Help scholarship beneficiaries and with many of my Kenyan friends. I also hope to spend some time following up the participants of the Pastors training programme that is run by Elyon Christian Mission.
I was involved in the birthing of this programme and it will be exciting to see first hand how God has grown this vital ministry to pastors in the slum areas around Dagoretti Corner.

I will endeavour to regularly (& often) update this blog (http://blog.ozcorners.net) with news of how I see God at work during this 3 month stay in Nairobi.

Please pray for my time in Kenya; for health, wisdom, safety & fruitfulness. Also pray for my wife Linda at home in Australia.

Danger: Reading this book may upset you!

2 Timothy 3:16-17 NIV
"All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work."


If we are serious about the Bible, we must ask ourselves again and again; "In what ways are good works being produced through our lives because of our study of the Bible?"
