I have
returned from Kenya evangelistic efforts. I treated about 250 ++ patients and
did 3 meetings a day. Patients who were waiting their turn, also had to stop
for prayers so they heard the gospel and had a chance for their prayer requests to be offered. There were 70++
wanting baptism but 43 were successful. There is a lot of polygamy and so
issues must be settled prior to baptism. There were children under 12 yrs and
they could not be allowed for the rigid policy rules. It always makes me sad
that I could not convince the pastors that God says in the writings of Ellen White that
8-10 is old enough to make this choice of baptism.
People were happy for what God did. We had
several miracles
1.
A young girl was struck by a car, thrown down
yet no injuries
2.
A woman at meeting was healed when I prayed
right during the meeting. I always pray at the beginning of meeting. I always ask that all at the meeting can be
relieved of their suffering from mental confusion or pain of any sort or from
alcohol or drug levels causing cloudy
thinking.
3.
A woman with diabetis for 8 years who had a foot
ulcer on both feet for that long, was septic upon arrival and felt the charcoal
treatment pulling and opening up things to drain and heal. Great progress was made daily. She is to
continue treatments at home. The local doc wanted to amputate. It was a wise
choice but she refused. They walk everywhere and she envisioned a fate worse
than death. Her rotting flesh was calling flies to the horrid odors. I obtained
another infection in my nose as always happens when I treat such cases. That
day I had left the face masks in my lodging room.
4.
Rain came so heavy and at meeting time daily. It
was that rainy season time of the year. God answered my prayers about it in
different ways to show me He has a thousand ways of which I know nothing. Once
He did not stop the rain. Yet people passing by were running into the church
for shelter. He kept the rain up till the message was done that HE WANTED THEM
TO HEAR. Then he stopped it. I had to shout into the ear of the translator who
shouted into the microphone. The tin roof was getting such a pounding, there
was no way to hear!!!!! Wonder of wonders, there were appropriate responses to
the quiz. They had to come up and shout the answer into the ear of the translator.
They got it right and received their DVD. Now----How did that work? What did God do to move the program into the
ears of all those who were there???
5.
Another rain miracle was that He did stop the
rain when I asked.
6.
Another rain miracle was regarding the muddy
roads. They were so slippery the car was always going sidewise during each trip
through the slanted part that also had a drop off of erosion on the other side.
I always prayed and the angels straightened and help the car pass on without
getting stuck or hurting anyone. Once it was headed for a stuck vehicle and I
could see 3 pairs of legs of men trying to push it. We were headed so fast to
broadside them. I prayed and with only an inch, the car suddenly was turned to
go past and then totally sidewise in the road. The men were shouting in their
drunken state that they could have been killed and so they wanted to kill the
driver and all in the car. God protected us as we straightened and went on
home.
7.
Yet still another rain miracle happened. I
prayed for rain water as the ones caring for me were restricting the water for
bathing. I wanted plenty for my hair. I got it! It came at the time I could
catch and utilize it.
8.
I prayed for rain delay on Friday afternoon so I
could get my clothing hand- washed , finding soap, and water and they dry the
clothes in the sun before Sabbath. The
storm went around and hit the village really hard.
9.
Next
morning a van full of bananas and bags of stuff was stuck in the mud along the
side of the one lane road blocking the way to meeting. They had no idea that
the little ladies pushing could not even move such a heavy load. The angels
were moving the truck. Our driver went to assist and he said it seemed the
truck was moving along by itself. We got to meeting in time to set up and start
on time. I am positive the angels were pushing. Many don’t realize they are
getting blessed because of a missionary they are near. They did not realize it
was God who helped them on their way out of an impossible ditch that had
swallowed them up.
10.
Another miracle: A woman in clinic named Rose
came and said that she had been given a dream where she was told to come to
meeting. She did, and surrendered her life to Jesus. She told of all the white
robed people in her dream and one looked like the grandfather who had attended
the Adventist church before he died.
11.
One mother with sores all over her body
clutching her 3 year old little boy sick in her arms with the same thing,
wanted help. He was crying and she
claimed it was from stomach pain. I put charcoal in my drinking water bottle
and handed it to him. He received it happily, drank it all and had instant
relief. He settled in against his mama’s chest with peace on his face. As I
prayed for them, she said she already saw the hand of God bringing their
healing.
12.
Tom was an elder born in 1933. He had a dream he
had a very important work. That morning
I needed him to help translate. God helped him. He found many ways to assist
with the sanctuary coverings and candles and incense. I thank God for his
faithfulness there and in clinic.
13.
Children came to listen to stories even when it
was not meeting times and I was happy to give them Bible stories. A little girl
started translating for all her friends. I love watching how the Holy Spirit
reaches out through any age of person willing to take the time to translate.
14.
People came when it was not clinic time and I
did my best to help yet needed a break from clinic.
15.
The projector needs another 500 dollar bulb.
There has been no donations for another bulb. It has gone more than 1000 hours beyond what
it should have gone already. When power shut down, the bulb could have broken
but kept on through all of it. The bulb needs to cool with the fan to keep the
bulb from breaking. We did not have that luxury yet the bulb even though it is
beyond it’s service potential by more than 1000 hours, it is another example of
God multiplying what is in my hands. J
16.
I was very sick with respiratory infection after
treating the lady with rotting flesh. I had fever and chills and used
eucalyptus and water and other treatments. By 9pm Sunday, I was chilling and
had 2 coats on and hat and socks. I just could not get comfortable. I had hot
water put in my bed in water bottles. At midnight Tom and a visitor Meshack
were praying and a turn in my recovery happened. At three AM again Tom was
praying for me. I was surprised that anyone would take time like that to pray
for me when I was so weak. I thank God for all who are praying for my strength.
17.
On the way home to USA on the plane, I had
burning on my feet like I get with a fungus infection. I prayed that God would
arrange for me to be upgraded to business class where I could recline and use
the back massage for my backpain and in the little zipper bags, they provide
new clean socks. As I was going through security, they put a stop on my ticket.
I feared it meant something bad but it was the upgrade I prayed for. I had the
new fresh socks given to me and it stopped the foot problem. I rode the long 9 hours home in reclined position like I was in
bed. J
18.
Great is His
faithfulness!!!! He called and brought 43 to baptism. The real miracle of
conversion is done by God the Holy Spirit. I love to see it. Inside, we cannot
see the heart working but the wind blows where it wants and we can see
something great is happening in the heart of those going for baptism. The local
members are following up the cases and interests .
Next
assignment is RWAND AFRICA. I need help
with dollars for Megavoice Bibles. I am going soon and returning 3rd
week of August 2012 .
God tells me
when to go and when to return. Tickets to the hub of the continent of Africa are
more than 2,000during peak season. Then from there into Rwanda is another
5oo. I have 80 Bibles so far in
Kenyarwandan (Megavoice talking Bibles)
I am praising
God for the many chances to work with Him. Great Things God has done! Thanks
for praying daily.
Jenny had a
miracle with a man donating toward her summer school in LaSierra, California.
She is doing Biology at God’s request all summer there.
Thank God for
what son Kyle is doing. At the young age of 10 years, he
helped with illustrations on my web site for Children’s Bible studies. Then he
did the illustrations for the sanctuary program I am using now for 10 years. He
is home for the summer of 2012 and working on illustrating Pilgrim’s progress.
He hopes to reach many young people and show them how important it is to leave
the worldly ways of “the city of destruction”, and head to the Holy City. By
reading the Bible, the truth sets you free and you realize you have been bound
in sin. Pilgrim leaves the city and his journey is full of difficulties. Later
his family follow his example. Kyle returns to WWU for his senior year as a
communications major. He may not have enough credits to graduate, yet he is
making good progress. I am hopeful and wish you to realize this is a miracle I
have been praying for many years.
I am
thanking God for a change visible in Kyle. Here is a picture
I love these
promises:
All power is promised in heaven and earth to go and preach. Mathew 28:18

Remember at Whose command I set out to cross the sea. Remember Jesus is in the
boat with us. You cannot sink. I puzzle over what more the disciples could have
done. They were bailing water out of their boat and calling 911 to Jesus. He
stopped the waves and asked why their faith was small and why were they afraid.
