Upcoming Missions Itinerary - Please Pray With us

Here are the dates and plans for the upcoming missions trip to Kenya. Please join us and pray for each stage if you can.

24th November - Fly from Manchester to Nairobi, then on to Kisumu the following day. It takes around 24 hours and can be really exhausting so we have an overnight stay in Kisumu to rest before meeting up with ministry partners.

Kisumu is one of the largest cities in Kenya and placed in the west of Kenya on the shores of Lake Victoria.

26th - 28th November - Arrival in the city of Kakamega, home to our African director, Bishop Raphael Buluma.

We will be ministering in his church on the Sunday which is the largest church in Kakamega and can hold around 1500 people. Pray that God will equip and enable us to do His will.

29th November - Arrival in the village of Malava, close to Kakamega. Setting up the marquee for the first week of missions. We will stay with Bishop in his home as it’s close to Malava.

Pray for the preparations for this mission, including safe erecting of the tent, and security of the equipment. Let nothing become a blockage to souls being saved.

1st - 5th December - 5 Days of intense missions. The tent will be well used. Bishop has booked us a bigger field than originally planned as we are expecting God to do great things. please pray that we will see great signs and wonders from the start, leading to many people coming to receive salvation.

The above picture was taken last time we went to Malava. Many hundreds were saved and now we will also be dedicating a new church too. God is good!

6th December - We arrive in Eldoret, the fourth largest city of Kenya and home to Pastor Simon Kibet, and Grace Nyairo, our ministry partners in this region.

7th - 12th December - 6 days of intense missions in the slums of Eldoret. Again we will be using the Operation Hope marquee which you helped buy last time we went.

Please pray for wonderful signs and wonders from the start. This truly is Gods publicity and is marvellous for bringing many souls to the tent. Pray for many, many souls to come to know our precious Lord Jesus!

13th December - Travel back to base in Kakamega putting away all the equipment for the next time. Please pray that nothing is lost or broken and we can secure everything for our next mission in February.

14th December - Fly home to the UK, please pray for safe travels. Please pray for a blessed reunion with our patient families, who release us to go and pray over our every step.

We sincerely ask that you would join us in prayer for every stage of this mission, starting now with our preparations and plans.

We ask that you cover our family who release us to go at a time when most families are drawing together for Christmas. Please pray that they also will have all they need.

We ask and tactfully point out that these missions, however fruitful, require a lot of finance to plan and put on. We as a family have no income except what the Lord provides. And so if the Lord has enabled you to help and you feel led that way, please either click the button below to give to ministry costs in Africa. Or use the details below to give personally to us as a family at this time.

We have been praying that God will bring alongside us, some who will contribute on a weekly or monthly basis, and partner with us as missionaries and as a ministry. Please pray that God will touch the willing hearts and cause them to be stirred if He wills. A scripture God has given me is Exodus 35 - 36:7, which leads me to add this paragraph.
