Mara Rianta CCC (Community Christian Church), part of the Mara North cluster of CCC congregations along with Endoinyo Erinka CCC (we lived in Endoinyo Erinka in 2007-2008), is hosting a women’s conference.  Mara Rianta is on the Mara River, on the road between Aitong and Kawai in TransMara.

October prayer update

Have you ever had one of those days?  When it seems as though a creative malevolence has been coming up with new things to go wrong, one after the other? 

We just had one of those months.

If you pray for us and our ministry and missed the email we sent out yesterday (31 October), here’s a PDF version.

Happy All Saint’s Day!
