\"\"Dear Prayer Partners,<\/p>\n

Thank you for walking with us through prayer in these days! We (Chelsea and Brad) had a good trip to Nairobi, Kenya, and met with good doctors there who did several procedures and are running tests to determine the cause of Brad\u2019s stomach issues. We are still waiting for some of the results, but we are thankful that several conditions have been ruled out already.\u00a0 While we are waiting, Brad is still not feeling well but is able to do some things.<\/p>\n

\"\"Thank you for praying for our kids and Chelsea\u2019s parents as we were gone. The Lord blessed their time, and it went well. We are thankful we get to spend time with them for the rest of their visit. (Photo on the left: Waiting in a doctor\u2019s office in Nairobi<\/em>)<\/p>\n

Thank you for praying for the ministries that we are a part of here in Central\/East Africa. The Lord is blessing the different discipleship groups in Rwanda, Burundi, and Congo.<\/p>\n

Thank you for praying with us for our Rwandan Friends as they prepare to send Pastor Nicodeme and Annonciata to South Sudan as the first missionaries sent by Evangelical Friends in of Rwanda. They plan to send them this year.<\/p>\n
