July Newsletter

Hello all!

We pray this finds you well. Our computers are giving us trouble so we aren’t able to use our normal newsletter template. So, here is a brief update of what this next month holds.

We are going to Kenya in a few days for three weeks to do a medical camp in George’s home village. A team with Agape Project International is coming from the US to put on the medical camp. We have worked with them twice before and love what they do. All but one team member from last summer’s team is coming again and we are thrilled to see them again. They do two camps a year in Kenya and we are honored they are doing one in George’s village. The village is in a very poor area and is in much need of medical help. We anticipate 1500 people will receive free treatment and have the opportunity to hear the gospel. The camp is one week long so the first two weeks we are in Kenya, we’ll be doing preparation for the camp. We have a lot to do including: making sure the hotel is set up for the team of 22, arranging the pastor’s training, finding enough tables and chairs for the camp, getting supplies for and finding someone to cook lunches for the team, getting translators to come for the week, meeting with the ministry of health officers and many other things. We also have to do personal things that we can’t do in Tanzania like see doctors, get medicine, renew my residency, and get a few supplies. Before we leave, we would love your prayers for the following items:

1. API Team - Safety as the team travels from the US and good health and sleep while in Kenya
2. Our Car - Good gas mileage and no breakdowns
3. Camp preparations - that we’ll get everything done in time so the camp goes smoothly
4. That many people would feel God’s love as they come for treatment
5. Funds - for the expenses of the camp, both on our end and API’s side.

Hopefully next month, we’ll be back to our normal newsletter. We’ll update you on how the camp went as well as what God is doing in Moshi and with the orphanage plans.

God Bless you all this coming month! Thank you for your prayers and support!

Love,
The Orwas
