Erica sharing with Dr. Karanja and the Godwins

in Haruma, Nairobi, about the CBM Urban Muslim

Women’s Self Help Group project

Today we had the pleasure of travelling into the Eastland’s community of Haruma with Colin and Karen, and their dad, Bob Godwin, to meet with the moderator of the ACC&S. We were visiting the community outreach project of the National Church Council of Kenya (NCCK) in Haruma, a neighbouring community of Eastleigh. It was a great opportunity to learn more about the broader work of the Christian community in this part of the city.

The communities of Haruma, Eastleigh and Pangani have been under great stress as insecurity has risen in the area. Please remember these communities in your prayers.

We also had the great pleasure of visiting with our good friend and colleague Tim Bannister early this morning as he was passing through the Nairobi airport on his way back to Liberia from Farming God’s Way meetings in South Africa. We continue to think of Tim and Diane as they build a new work in West Africa with CBM’s partner there.

This afternoon, Aaron had the fun of speaking at the Rosslyn Elementary School chapel. He shared about the importance of holding onto the good and letting go of the bad. It was great to be apart of Ava’s weekly worship time with her teachers and classmates.
