Very sorry for not having written on here for so long -- it's been so busy! I want to ask prayer for the teen's camp which starts this afternoon (Tuesday)and lasts until Saturday morning. It's held down at the school -- the kids stay in the dorms there, and we'll be going down each day for the lessons and activities. The theme this year is "The Word of God" -- and there are teaching sessions each morning and one session in the afternoon on this theme. Then there's an activity period in the afternoon, and a quiz or video or something like that at night. I'm teaching on "The Assembly of the Bible" on Thursday morning - i.e. the Canon of Scripture. I'm enjoying the preparation, but will have to be careful how I present it because the kids are 13-16 yr olds, and not all of them know English. It will be translated, of course, but I still need to try to present it as simply as possible. So pray for wisdom for me! Brian is teaching on "What the Bible is like" on Wednesday afternoon (i.e. like a hammer, a lamp, a sword, bread, etc.). Then other subjects are "The Inspiration of the Bible", "The Interpretation of Scripture", "Why We Use the AV only", "How to Study your Bible", and so on.
Next week there is a youth camp (17 yrs old and up) - Noreen McAfee is organising it (Gillian Gillespie organised the teens camp). The Kenyan pastors and youth leaders of course are running the camps as well. So please pray for everyone involved in these two camps! And pray that the young people will be able to afford to come, and will have a hunger for the Word when they do come.
I have a few photos to put on here, but will have to do that another time. And I'm sure I'll have a lot of pictures from the camps too!

Really enjoy following your work in Kenya. My pupils correspond with children in Nyamninia Primary in Kenya. Think of you often.
