Oh Father, hasten the day that I might bow down at your throne and worship you in every tongue, every language. Yesterday, I had the joy of worshiping you in English, Kiswahili, Hindi, and Congolese. Many times I did not know exactly what the words meant. I only knew that your spirit was moving and at work in those who were gathered. As I listened to the Congolese refugees sing praises to your name I realized that I could hardly wait for Heaven. In Revelations 15:4 it says, “Who will not fear you, O Lord, and bring glory to your name? For you alone are holy. All nations will come and worship before you, for your righteous acts have been revealed.” What a joy and a privilege to worship with all nations!
This week starts a new phase of my time in Kenya. I will meet with 3 new ministries again to nail down what and when. I have moved into a new place in Nairobi and am learning contentment in living in the city. At times I miss taking baths from a bucket and hand washing my clothes. I don’t know that I thought that would ever happen. It is amazing how God moves in our lives to bring satisfaction and joy in our circumstances. I am hopeful for the last two months of my time in this country. I pray that the Lord reveals Himself in more ways. I pray that I will not hesitate to pour out all that I am for the glory of the cross.
I am so thankful for your prayers and support as the Lord has moved me and challenged my faith. I have struggled with love, contentment, forgiveness, and flexibility. The Lord has removed comfort and stability so that I might come running back to Him. It is always an incredible feeling when we rest in His arms once more. I remember the words of yet another song, “I am safe within your arms Lord, I’ve become a child again. I’ve come back to the source of love so healing can begin. Tough the world may say, I must be strong and prove my worth--- by what I do. I will run to you, in your embrace and find my strength in you.” Join me in praise and adoration of the gospel of Hope!

Thank you Meghan! Once again you have made my day. Sweetie, if we had a dollar for everytime you have made my day, there would be no hunger where you serve. I will keep praying for your peace and joy as you face the next few weeks of doing what you are called to do. Much Love.
Be Joyful, Pam
Hi, Meghan!
It's actually cloudy and cool here - not the typical May weather! However, I'm so thankful the "cloud" has been lifted where you are! Thank you for keeping us posted, and remember you're in my prayers daily.
Love,
Mrs. Nancy
All I can say is Amen and Amen. Praise the Lord our Father, our Provider and Shelter, that we will trust with a child like faith and go and serve and love others. Thank you for sharing, it does make a difference. We will continue to pray for you and the people you will minister to and that will minister to you. We love you. Garth
