Our weekly Neighborhood Fellowship has been a blessing. We meet on a rotational basis in members homes to study the Word and discuss how it affects us personally today. Our subject matter is a book called OMBI about prayer and the  present lesson is spiritual strongholds and how to break them.  Social, personal, ideological, mental, territorial and occultist strongholds are areas we are discussing and tearing down with scripture. 2 Corinthians 10:4-5 says: “For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds. Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ. ”  The victory is ours through Christ Jesus, and  there is no discharge in the battle.

Kids Club

Our effort to start the Kids Club has been greatly rewarded. Although we decided on the early morning schedule of 7:30- 8:30 on Saturday morning, we had nineteen kids attend last week!  Actually, in God’s wisdom we have seen this schedule work out for good as we have noticed the children are retaining the memory verse and Bible story information very well. Jason himself testifies that the songs stay in his head all day! The children  are opening their hearts to the Lord early, instead of watching cartoons on TV !I love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me. Proverbs 8:17. 

Also, the first meeting of our Fellowship Youth Group was held this month. at the Brainstorm Breakfast various topics were discussed including the youth potential and ways in which they can reach out to others of their age group. The plan is to hold a BBQ this month as an outreach opportunity. So, we are well connected and involved in our neighborhood Christian Activities.

It was a blessing to attend the graduation ceremony held at the Nairobi Education Center for the 2012/2013 class of Emergency Medical Technicians graduates. Beautifully, it began with a word of prayer, dedicating the lives of the graduates to the Lord in service to their fellow man, invoking God’s blessing upon their ability to help save lives and requesting wisdom to do the job. The graduates were required to take the EMT’s oath, a solemn pledge to uphold honor, honesty and morality within the profession. Diplomas were distributed and speeches were made. The Kenyan Council of Emergency Medical Technicians is an internationally accredited organization and representatives from the World Health Organization and Bloomberg ‘ s Charities from New York were in attendance.  Kenya is definitely in need of more emergency medical training programs as there are currently only 670 qualified rescue workers in the entire country!   The rate of traffic accidents is very high and with the recent addition of terrorist attacks these trained people are a great asset to the nation.
Joana took part as a graduate and received her card and diploma. Congratulations Joana on a job well done! “
