As this is being written, the Kenya Mission Team is waking up and preparing for their journey home. It is Thursday morning there and packing, team meetings, fellowship, and hopefully rest, is on the agenda for the day. If I know Tony, Charles and Nathan, “throwing down some Jesus” is also probably on the itinerary. Tuesday and Wednesday have been wonderful days on the mission field, with Wednesday being absolutely outstanding. On Tuesday, Tony visited villages and approximately 40 were saved. The scenery has been breath-taking with mountain tops to ocean landscapes…. Tony was truly blessed by the scenery. On Wednesday Tony’s team visited villages and a school. At the school there were 266 professions of faith and 250 bibles distributed. They also presented a soccer ball to the school. Tony said the teachers, guides, and kids were all very excited. It was just a “God” thing. All in all there have been over 10,500 bibles given. Is that awesome of what?
Pray for safe travel home and rest as the team begins their journey. They will spend one night in London, then home on Saturday evening.
In Christ

Tony, Charles, and Nathan visited in the village where Tony served a couple years ago with Pastor David Kazunga. Tony was able to see Debbie Nama (Grace) and her mother Margaret. Both are doing fine. While there in the village on Saturday, the guys shared the gospel and 26 people accepted Christ as personal Lord and Savior. Charles led a man through the sinners prayer and helped him to accept Christ. As they walked on, a lady came running after them. She wanted what her husband had…. Nathan was able to lead her through the prayer and she accepted Christ also.
Tony shared with a Witch Doctor, 2 friends, and a woman. The Witch Doctor said, “I know what you say is true, but I don’t want to accept Jesus as my savior.” Tony questioned a bit further and was told that he worshiped other Gods and Satan; therefore he couldn’t accept Christ. They were asked to go to a home and pray for a sick boy by the name of Silas. The guys laid hands on Silas and the family all gathered around to pray with them. As a result, all of the family prayed to receive Christ…. By the way, this is the family of the Witch Doctor!!!
The guys all wanted to share how they feel your prayers and presence in their daily journey. They love and appreciate all of you.
Prayer Requests:
- Pray for Silas … healing
- Charles requests prayer for the next week
- Tony and Leetta will visit schools this week
- Pray for the people in the villages and schools as they share the gospel
- Pray for schools and villages to open
- Pray, Pray, Pray…..
Praise Report:
- 5000+ Salvations
- 3-4000 Bibles given

Tony called at the end of the day on Thursday. They are all doing great and God is moving powerfully in the group and in the hearts of the people of Kenya. Tony served in the village / church on Thursday. He had an awesome day of praise, fellowship, and worship with the village and church he has been working with during the week. Charles Ortega visited a school on Thursday with approximately 700 children with over 500 of them accepting Christ. In addition, over 500 bibles were distributed on Thursday. Nathan Webb has been in the villages and is seeing God move in awesome ways. Tony is hoping all 3 guys will be able to minister in the schools on Friday.
Tony will have an opportunity this weekend to visit the pastor he keeps in touch with and has worked with in the past. He will try to see Debbie Nama (Grace) while he is there. (See her story on the website)

Awesome news from Kenya: approx. 3000 salvations and 1700 Bibles have been distributed. Tony, Charles, and Nathan will serve together the next couple days. They will be visiting several schools. To say they are excited is an understatement. Everyone seems to be doing well with the exception of fatigue. Tony said they were all tired and in need of some rest, but there is work to be done. They are thankful for all of your prayers and hope you will continue. They are definately walking into the prayers all of you have been praying for them.
In Christ,

God is moving in Kenya once more as always. In my area there is a lot of spiritual opposition causing me to pray even more. Today on Tuesday I had 16 professions in the morning. I preached at a school and had about 55 professions of faith. It was pretty awesome. Please pray against Satan because he was definitly opposing me the last two days.

On July 16th, Margaret Ortega received a call from Charles. He said there had been 120 Salvations at that time.
-
KEEP on Praying….. I will keep you posted.

All of the team, including Tony Pearce, Charles Ortega, and Nathan Webb, arrived in Kenya on time as scheduled. Everyone, including all the luggage (this is a big deal), made it to their destinations on Saturday. Tony, Charles and Nathan went to town to set up email accounts, get phone cards, and exchange money. While in town, Tony shared Christ with 2 who accepted Jesus as their Savior. On Sunday the team of 8 all went to churches to share the gospel and encourage the members. In the 3 churches where Tony, Charles, and Nathan served, there were no salvations, but Tony said they praised and worshiped the Lord with the church members. He said it was an awesome time! One of the team members had 18 pray to receive Chist. (20 so far)
Tomorrow each member will begin their journey with a driver and an interpreter. They will be sharing the gospel and preaching the “Good News”.
