Dear praying friends,

Another month has come and passed so quickly and we hope this update finds each of you doing well in service to our Lord. This update will provide current prayer requests, as well as the progress of the ministries.

We are very busy with furlough at this point, as we have been in several different states sharing our ministry with churches and individuals. We are praying that the Lord would provide the rest of our funds, as we still need around $250 a month. If the Lord would burden you with our ministries, and you would desire to assist us, please contact us at our information above. We trust the Lord to provide and Psalms 71:5 states, "For thou art my hope, O Lord GOD; thou art my trust from my youth." The Lord is always faithful and we trust Him for our needs.

So many have asked about the situation in Kenya. From what we understand, a peace agreement was signed in the country this past week. This is truly an answer to prayer and it seems that the unrest has calmed. We thank each one so much for praying for us and the situation within the country. Psalms 34:14 says, "Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it." We hope and pray that this is the desire of the Kenyan people at this time and that peace would truly come to the country.

My wife continues to do well with her pregnancy. We are around seven months now and are hoping and praying that all goes well in the next two months and that there are no health complications. Please keep her in your prayers and that all would continue well.

In conclusion, please pray for the ministries in Kitale and the leaders we have left to maintain the ministries in our absence. We have heard of no problems, so we are very thankful for that. Please continue to pray for both the prison and hospital ministries. Pray that the nationals would continue to be faithful to the Lord and that God would truly be glorified in this ministry. I Corinthians 4:3 states, "Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful." We desire that those we have entrusted with our ministry in Kenya would truly be found faithful.

May God bless you. We look forward to hearing from each of you either by e-mail or phone. You are more of an encouragement to us than you will ever know, and we thank God for each of you who pray and give to this ministry.

In Kenya,

Nathan and Carrie Radford
