Report from Pastor Festus in Kenya

by Pastor Jerry Theckston

---

Blessings dear servants of the Living God, Creator of Heaven and Earth and all that is in Them!!!  Acts 17:24,25

This is our latest report from our dear pastor Festus.  We have been trying to send $300 every other month to his starving church and the surrounding community in Western Kenya.  Our hope this year, as long as God provides, is to send $300 every month to help as many as we can!

Pastor Kimwele is very good about giving specific details for the food distribution!  The Kenya shilling (their dollar) is roughly one U.S. dollar to 100 shillings- so just move the decimal over two places to the left for accounting…

For dates, they list the day of the month first, then month and finally the year!  One kg. = 2.2 lbs. 

Matt. 25:40!!
