AUGUST
Schools in Kenya have closed for the month until September when the final term begins. We are using this month to write curriculum for Level 2 schools, preparing for some church conferences where we’ve been invited to speak, as well as meeting with various school leaders who are interested in receiving our training in 2016. A developing relationship with the Kenya Christian Private Schools Association is also providing open doors to hundreds of schools in the Eldoret area.
Open doors are wonderful and it excites us to see them. We covet your prayers as we meet with many leaders; wisdom and creativity are needed to discern which schools are ready for the level of commitment and participation that is part of the training and mentoring process.
We also ask for prayer for volunteers available to assist us with our ministry. Maybe that's you! We believe that mentoring works much better with at least three of us available to train and disciple teachers. Please contact us if you're interested in participating in our ministry in the future!
As always, we are so grateful for the prayers and support that allow us to continue in this ministry. Everyday we wake up in awe of the fact that we get to do this! As we ponder scripture, this verse has become special to us:
“I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live,
but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live
in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God,
who loved me and gave himself for me.” - Galatians 2:20
Blessings,
Mark & Cathy Lessig
