IRRIGATION FOR THE POOR IN WESTERN KENYA MAY 2012 BY PFJIM

PFJIM IRRIGATION PROJECT FOR THE POOR IN WESTERN KENYA MAY 2012
PASTOR TOM, THE OVERSEER OF PFJIM WAS TO TRAVEL TO SOUTH SUDAN FOR A CHURCH PLANTING SURVEY FROM 17TH TO 30TH MAY BUT THAT DID NOT HAPPEN BECAUSE OF WEATHER AND SECURITY PROBLEMS CURRENTLY BEING FACED IN SOUTH SUDAN. THE TRIP IS SCHEDULED FOR NOVEMBER 2012.

PASTOR TOM WAS BUSY WITH EMPOWERING THE POOR ON THE LAKE VICTORIA REGION IN KISUMU WESTERN KENYA. ON 15TH THROUGH TO 19TH MAY 2012, PASTOR TOM TRAVELED TO NAIROBI TO BUY IRRIGATION WATER PUMP PLUS ALL THE ACCESSORIES AND EQUIPMENT THAT GO WITH IT INCLUDING PIPES. THE KANDARIA VILLAGE OF KISUMU BECAME ALIVE WHEN IRRIGATION ITEMS ARRIVED IN THE VILLAGE. THE 18 HOUSEHOLDS IN THE PROJECT WERE TRULY REJUVENATED AND IRRIGATION WORK BEGAN. THERE WAS HOPE TO PROCLAIM THE GOSPEL, FIGHT POVERTY, FIGHT DISEASES AND MUCH MORE. THANKS TO ALL WHO PLAYED A ROLE IN THIS. IT WAS WONDERFUL. PHOTOS ARE AVAILABLE AND THEY ARE POWERFUL. YOU CAN REQUEST FOR PHOTOS.

GOD BLESS YOU.

PFJIM CHURCH PLANTING SURVEY IN KISUMU WESTERN KENYA APRIL 2012
IT IS LONG SINCE WE COMMUNICATED ON THE BLOG. LIFE HAS BEEN VERY BUSY HERE IN THE MISSION FIELDS OF NAROK IN KENYA AND IN OTHER PARTS OF THE WORLD. ON 19TH TO 23RD APRIL 2012, THE MISSION TEAM OF PFJIM TRAVELED TO KISUMU WESTERN KENYA FOR A CHURCH (ABOUT 350 KILOMETERS AWAY FROM NAROK TOWN). THEY WERE BUSY ESTABLISHING FACTS ABOUT THE PLACE WITH THE POSSIBILITY OF A CHURCH PLANT. THEY HAD A GOOD NEAR LAKE VICTORIA KEENLY INVESTIGATING THE LUO TRIBE CULTURES AND TRADITIONS PLUS A LOT MORE. THEIR FINDINGS WERE WONDERFUL WITH ONE STRONG RECOMMENDATION THAT THE PLACE CALLED KOROWE NEEDS A NEW EVANGELICAL CHURCH PLANT SINCE THERE WAS NON TO SERVE A POPULATION OF ABOUT 500 PEOPLE.

ON 15TH THROUGH TO 20 AUGUST 2012, PFJIM MISSION TEAM WILL TRAVEL BACK THERE FOR A CRUSADE, LEADERS SEMINAR AND OFFICIAL LAUNCHING OF THE KISUMU CHURCH. PRAY WITH US FOR THE WORK.
