The People of CHEDAWA


This is our final Post for the new church at Chedawa. After Mary rode the motorcycle, and we saw the great job the villagers did on the building, we got to meet the people. After all, the real church is the people. The building is only a structure. The people were so welcoming, especially the 80 or so children who came for hugs from the white visitors. Later they told us we were the first white people (Masungo's) to ever visit their village - many have never seen an automobile. They loved Mary's white hair (and my lack of it!).

I (Leroy) preached during the service using 1st Corinthians Ch 13 as a text. Seven people came forward and accepted the Lord! I also was able to pray for several folks who needed healing. One elderly women got so blessed she jumped up and down like a youngster. We felt so privileged to worship with these wonderful people. We thank the Lord he made a way for us to be there. Keep praising the Lord, and pray for us and Pokot people of Kenya. Leroy and Mary
