I just want to give you a little update. Right now we are waiting on the ferry company to have a plane headed to Kenya that can take the equipment. Gary said that it probably won’t be until mid to late January that they will have a plane.

I just want to encourage us all during this season to look back to why this season is special. What is it that makes it special? It’s the time that the world takes to remember Jesus’ birth. But do we really remember it? Do we remember the great sacrifice he made for us? So even though this is a time of year when many people are absorbed in giving gifts and receiving gifts, let us make it a point to remember the gift that Christ gave for us, He gave His life. What will we give back to Him? Will you give your life? That’s what He wants… But not just that, He has given us a command. Matthew 28:18-20 tells us that we need to go and preach to all nations and all tongues… Will you follow His command? “You can Go, or you can Send” or, as John Piper puts it, “you can disobey”. Jesus really does expect us to fulfill this command, and if we are too busy with our own lives then we will miss out on the blessings that He desires to give us, but we may also be found as unfaithful stewards of our Lord’s time and money. I pray that none of us will be in that category, for we must give account for our time and money, as well as our words. I hope that you each have a blessed Christmas and New Year.

I also wanted to let you know that I made an update to the About page, adding a section called: “Why I’m a volunteer”. I share some of my personal convictions, and reasons why I’m a volunteer.

God Bless each of you.
