God loves sausages

I wasn't there this week - I was unavoidably detained at the coast! So this week's update comes from Emily.

We waited a full hour before anyone stopped for prayer today but once one had sat down, several followed. We prayed for people with chest pain, coughs, very swollen glands and skin diseases as well as for some businesses, there were more guys this week than usual including one man who had cut a finger off! It did not grow back but we prayed for the pain to go.

One guy came back to say hi, last week we had prayed for his sausage selling business and his wife and family. He reported that his wife is fine now and he sold all of his sausages, not only that day but everyday since! Before last week he would only sell a few here and there, he said his faith is strong now so we prayed together again that God would keep showing Himself.

Godwill, the Turning Point football coach, stepped up to take Jon's place on the team this week, he said it was a very moving and humbling experience.

  1. Good that Godwill was able to come as it sounds as though once again you were busy. It seems as though its becoming an acceptable part of life in Kibera and that it is much needed. God bless.

  2. Great to hear latest news. Having recently seen the exact place where you do HotS, it is so encouraging to picture you all there and what God is doing through you.
