the assurance of things hoped for the conviction of things not seen. He 11:1
Jombo was raised in a godly home. Over the years he lost both parents and a brother to (curable) diseases. He prayed hard and worked hard to get a high school education and God provided vocational training after high school. Faithful, hard working, well trained Jombo found it difficult to stay employed in Kenya’s small country towns. After marrying he moved with his new wife to the big city of Nairobi hoping to find long term work. They lived on glasses of water (boiled to get the brown out) for many weeks. Finally Jombo was offered a place to “volunteer”. He worked two weeks for free. After proving that he was worthy, he was offered “minimum wage” of 250 shillings/day ($3.84). Today Jombo has earned several raises and more importantly he has learned much. He has a vision to care for orphans. Jombo and I are meeting weekly to pray. Soon we believe God will give us the courage to step out and start a new work. Soon we we will travel to Jombo’s homeland to invite church leaders to help start this new work. Many children are loosing hope BUT GOD is about to extend His hand to save a few more in Jombos homeland. Jombo and I are asking God to help us take faith steps…together.
