NEWSLETTER: January 2015

Just a couple weeks in and so much has happened.....



The Beginning of a Lifelong Journey

Learning now to build a foundation that will last forever

People from five nations have gathered in one place for one cause: to minister to the unreached so that God's Kingdom can grow. Our time together in Nakuru, Kenya started by sharing about our journey that led us here. Throughout each story, it became overwhelmingly evident that God worked so much in each of our lives. His faithfulness, timing, provision, and blessings were common factors for all of us. We are learning about this new culture that we will immerse ourselves into next month. Various speakers are coming to help us understand how the Gospel and worldview interact. These three weeks of learning are only the beginning of a new journey of lifelong learning about culture and languages.


We are also building friendships and bonds as all of us adjust to this new life that is before us. We will be serving in six different countries on this beautiful continent but for now we are bonded as one group. The above picture is from our first day off. Most of us went on a hike at the Menengai Crater. It was a wonderful day to be outside and enjoy the beautiful scenery.

Thank you for your continued support! I, as well as the others here, covet your prayers and encouragement.

Serving and learning,
Katherine Rowe

While in Nairobi, we enjoyed time with each other as we relaxed and played games for a few days before orientation.
