Recent Fellowship Highlights Need for Christian Community

When a group of Christian leaders gathered for fellowship, they realized its necessity and importance. The gathering was facilitated by a local pastor, one of only two full-time pastors in the region, and composed of 13 lay leaders. Front-line workers reported that the gathering highlighted the need for more opportunities to fellowship with other Christian workers in this region of Kenya, which is dominated by Islam. “The gratitude of the teachers ... after the fellowship evidenced how they critically needed such fellowships and encouragements regularly,” a front-line worker said. “It was noted that the lack of such fellowships in a hostile environment is dangerous for any Christian and would deny the predominantly Muslim locals to see God’s love and mercy demonstrated through Christians.” Pray for more opportunities for fellowship and encouragement for the few gospel workers in this region, and for more laborers to join in the ministry.
