The latter glory will exceed the former.

This was our final day of mission in and around Nairobi.

I prayed before that we would end on a high and that what we would see on our final day would eclipse what happened before. That prayer was answered.

We planned for a long trip back through the traffic to the old school of one of the young men I am working with. After spending some time on the streets of that area talking to people we arranged to have an audience with some of the children after their regular lessons were over. We had a one hour session with them that went superbly well. Around 70 students attended of between the ages of 11 and 15 and they really engaged with us {The guys I am now with specialise in this and are very good}.

We used the subject of peer pressure and there was some good interaction and we also used this to share the gospel. I shared by background and conversion experience with them and at the end one of the team gave an invitation for people to commit their lives to Christ. We saw six people make a decision including a very emotional Muslim who was deeply touched by the message of Jesus.

This school has been through a very hard time recently having been ejected from their old building and quickly finding new accommodation. Today they were encouraged that people were interested in them and were prepared to do something with them and the students. We even had the chance to pray for and with the principal of the school before we left.

I am staying at a missionary house somewhere between Ruaka and Banana Hill. Everyone in the house gathers together for prayer in the evening after a fellowship meal and shares any prayer needs. One of the residents has been suffering from back pain for the last four months after giving birth. We had the chance to pray for her and she was completely healed of all pain. Even after the mission is completed God is still moving in people's lives.

This mission has been packed with revival services, 6 crusades in three locations, a conference and outreaches to three different areas. It has been eventful. New contacts have been made and We have seen a total of 16 people commit their lives to Christ and another 13 testimonies of miraculous healing along with many people hearing the gospel and being open to follow up conversations and giving their details.

We thank God for all he has done and every life that has been changed. I am also very appreciative of Kyomukama Deus  who has been a revelation with his love of the scriptures and his faithfulness in preaching and teaching. The PAIS movement people I worked with this week have been superb. It has been excellent. We have ended on a high so it has been as God told me in answer to my prayer, "The latter glory will exceed the former"

Amen.....Steve Johnson
