Enoch Family Update
2010-03-28
 WE ARRIVED IN NAIROBI ON 28 FEBRUARY! Thank you for your prayers for a safe journey back to Kenya! We praise God for many blessings. We had expected to pay around $750 for extra luggage. Our actual airfare was the lowest we could find, and it worked out to be the best deal to buy the lower price tickets and pay for the excess luggage. However, when we arrived at the airport, we were not charged for the extra bags. We actually reminded them to charge us, but they said that there was no charge. We praise the Lord and thank Him for this extra blessing. Thank you for your prayers for our travel. Thank Him with us, for His answers to our prayers.
THE LORD ALSO BLESSED US WITH A VEHICLE. We were able to find a very good used vehicle, a 1999 Pajero IO. It is a mid size vehicle, automatic, but with four wheel drive, which we will be needing from time to time. Purchasing the vehicle and sorting out the loan, the insurance, and the paperwork took time, but now all we are waiting for is the transferred title. It should take only about 3 months!
OUR WORK PERMIT IN KENYA, WAS STILL VALID FOR ONE MORE YEAR. But our Alien Registration was already expired. We were able to renew that with only one trip to downtown Nairobi, and we will go again next month to pick up our new cards.
PASTOR AMOS CAME FROM MERU TO GREET US AND GIVE US A REPORT. It was a blessing to see Pastor Amos again. He was glad to report that the Meru Church is growing a little in spite of some difficulties with a few unhappy members. Please continue to pray for this Church. There are four men, whom it seems, continue to try to destroy this Church. They have been causing trouble in the Church on and off for the past 10 years, and for one of them, even before that. Please pray specifically that the Lord will radically change their hearts or remove them from the Church. And pray for wisdom for Pastor Amos as he continues to serve the Lord with this opposition. We are encouraged to see his faithfulness, and plan to go to Meru next month for a Pastor's meeting, and to visit this Church.
WE ARE STILL LOOKING FOR AN APARTMENT IN NAIROBI. We begin teaching in Capitol City Baptist Bible College April 5th, and we are still looking for an apartment in the area of the College. Traffic in Nairobi only continues to increase, and it can actually take an hour or more to go only a mile or two at certain times of the day. Please pray with us, that the Lord will direct our choice in an apartment. As we look at apartments, our first concerns are, security, water availability, and power availability. We would also like to have the opportunity to minister to our neighbors! In an apartment setting, there could be several opportunities for Bible Studies, and maybe Children's clubs. We are praying that God will show us the place He has chosen for us.
TRYING TO BE GOOD STEWARDS, we continue to develop an e-mail list for sending our updates, and to reduce the mailing cost. If you would like to get the updates via e-mail, please let us know at ronenochkenya@gmail.com We are also posting our updates on our website, www.enochsfollowinggod.com We also post other articles, prayer requests and news items there. Feel free to check us out there as well.
Thank you for your prayers and support that allow us to be............
Walking with God in Kenya,
Ron and Christine Enoch
