THE LOVE OF CHRIST THROUGH MEDICINES.

Ms.Pat Schuessler called me and asked me to witness Christ to a 26 year old young man. This young man had walked from Mahianyu where we held the medical clinic on Monday and Tuesday. He has been jailed in the past, is alcoholic and smokes all manner of substances. He is married with two children. To cut the long story short, the young man after briefly sharing with him the plan of salvation put his hand in his jacket pocket pulled out a ciggarette gave it to me and told me that he had smoked his last ever cigarrette and now wanted to get saved. I joyfully led him to the Lord and almost broke down as I saw tears roll down his face. I later gave the cigarrette to Ms. Pat as Dr. Greg said a big Amen!
Before this happened, Dr. Greg had earlier called me to witness to a senior citizen who also surrendered his life to the finished work of our Lord at the cross of Calvary. I enjoyed going down on my knees with an 81 year old man. Surely this salvation is common to all ( Jude 3 ), Christ saves the old and the young, men and women.



Friends we saw 16 people get saved today and we thank the Lord for using unworthy people like us for the extension of HIS kingdom. I want to thank Pastor Robertson Wahome and Bro. Ikinya Mureu for driving the team to different venues, the triage run by Ms Gladys Warutere and Ms Faith Ikinya, the translators; Ms. Sarah Githinji, Bro. Charles Musandu and Bro. Joel Mwangi, the records done by Bros Patrick Kololi and Moses Omondi. Pastors Bernard Mungai, Robertson Wahome and Bro. Joshua Gideon witnessed Christ to every patient at the counseling room. May the Lord bless you all for your labour of sacrifice. Tomorrow we are headed to Ndivai Bible Baptist Church and this is deep in the village. Pray for the entire team, particularly the Americans that they will be able to endure our roads. So far the Lord has graciously enabled them to gel so well and serve the Lord with great compassion. Your prayers continue to do wonders and should continue flowing!
