Mumias Crusade


Dear beloved: Pics, Poster for upcoming Mumias Crusade; Alfred, Zephaniah, Bony, Dougie with new podium they made for church
1 Corinthians 2:9 "Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor have entered into the heart of man, the things which God has prepared for those who love Him." v10 But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit, for the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God. v11 For what man knows the things of man except the spirit of man inside of him? Even so, no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God.
Beloved, the Spirit of God is telling me this crusade is going to tear down some strongholds in this region. Start to pray in earnest as the Spirit moves you. The three major strongholds in this area, and all over Kenya, are these: 1.Corruption and stealing, 2. sexual immorality fueled by legalized polygamy 3. islam and witchcraft. Just this week on the shamba, someone stole the sticks from the scarecrow in the maize field! Can you believe they left the clothes? Kenya needs Jesus, He is the answer to the iniquity of Kenya and all mankind. I invite you to partner with Gather the Outcasts Ministry as we take the message of the cross to the lost and dying world. We are halfway to our goal to meet the budget for this crusade, still needing $2,000. You are also welcome to come help at the crusade. Thank you so much for your prayers and support, may God bless you as you pray!

Strength in Weakness


Dear beloved:  Posters going up in Mumias town for the Mumias crusade; left, Flavian and Zeph; right, Patrick
2 Corinthians 12:9 And the Lord said to me, " My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.: Therefore most gladly I will boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. v10 Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in distresses, for Christ's sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong.
In 2015 I had prepared a crusade for Butembo, Congo, and sent the team and money on ahead.  I traveled all night through Rwanda to get to the Congolese border point at Goma, only to be denied a visa and entry. Needless to say I was in distress.  I waited two weeks at the border but was never allowed entry.  The man who stepped in to preach the crusade was Dr. Stephen Mutua, who happened to be in Butembo to preach at a conference.  This week in Mumias, Dr. Mutua was here to preach to 200 pastors, to light the fire for the upcoming Mumias Crusade. I paved his way in Butembo, he paved the way for me here in Mumias.  None of this was planned by either one of us, it was all in the Lord's timing. Commit your works unto the Lord, and your plans will be established.  Stand with us in prayer and support as we take the good news of the gospel to the people of the Mumias region.  May God bless you as you pray!

Stand in the Gap

\
Dear beloved: Pics, New believer Alfred up out of the watery grave; village girls getting their water from Living Water spring
Ezekiel 23:29 "The people of the land have used oppressions, committed robbery, and mistreated the poor and needy; and they wrongfully oppress the stranger.  V30 So I sought for a man among them who would make a wall, and stand in the gap before Me on behalf of the land, that I should not destroy it, but I found no one. v31 Therefore I poured out My indignation on them; I have consumed them with the fire of My wrath; and I have recompensed their deeds on their own heads," says the Lord.
Beloved, this scripture spoken by the prophet Jeremiah could easily apply to Kenya, or the USA.  In Kenya, violence, robbery, corruption and oppression of the poor have left the majority of people needy and feeling hopeless. In the USA the poverty isn't so much material as it is a famine of God's word and spiritual emptiness. In both cases the solution is the same, the good news of the gospel.  Jesus came to preach good tidings to the poor, to heal up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives.  Gather the Outcasts has been preaching crusades and sharing the good news in Africa since 2010.  Join with us as we continue to stand in the gap for the poor and oppressed in Kenya.  We are planning a big city wide crusade in Mumias town December 5-8. We are planning to work with 100 local pastors, along with some great singers from Western Kenya, and local church choirs to lead the praise and worship.  Will you stand with us?  The budget for the crusade is $4,000.  May God bless you as you pray!
