Happy Father's Day!

Happy Father's Day to all of you out there! The girls greeted their daddy with cards this morning. I will post pictures of the cute cards sometime today, I think! Last evening, we ministered at the blind fellowship near the YMCA. There were about 30 people, and they played the piano, drums, tambourines and the worship service was fantastic! There was such a real presence of God. I ministered and after the Word, Tony and I prayed for them individually. We so enjoyed ourselves - it was a great service. The Lord spoke to me during the worship service. He touched me during the very start of the service when they started singing and I had tears streaming down my face. Then I felt the Lord say to me that the tears are an expression of His compassion upon the needy and that to minister to them, I must continually remain broken before Him. After the service, the group gave us a tremendously generous offering that we never expected. This morning we received an email from a student pastor in Kenya with an urgent financial need.....the Lord continues to proof Himself faithful in miraculous ways!

I am staying home this morning with Kat. Tony and Vickie left for church a while ago. Kathryn has been struggling with allergies since we got here about two weeks ago. It has recently developed into a nasty cough/cold and she's miserable. She told me yesterday that she wants to go "home" (Kenya!). Poor girl! I think she looks better today and hopefully she will be well enough soon to keep up with our crazy schedule.

Do please pray for her when the Lord brings her to mind.

These last two weeks, we have been so overwhelmed by the kindness and the generosity of so many people. Our own family members continue to bless us in so many ways. Friends came forward to loan us their cars. We had one for 10 days and another one was made available to us before we had to return the first one! Both cars are very nice ones too! A friend took us book shopping and paid for the Sunday School DVD that Kathryn bought for her little SS class in Nairobi. Friends invited us out for meals. We are so humbled by the kindness of so many! This has really bless and encourage us...Thank you so much, all of you!

Hi Christine,

When Kathryn is feeling better, if you'd like to write a list of prayer needs, I'll post it up on the missions notice board. Take care all especially Kat. *huggles* Kat! You'll be all right soon, girl, just hang in there!

To blog or not to blog is the question....

I was wondering if I should keep this blog when we relocate to Malaysia??? I know that our friends in Malaysia and elsewhere are interested about our lives in Kenya but Malaysia??? I am not sure... I am thinking about it... write me a comment if you think I should keep it up!! Some random pics.... This is Max longing for his daddy. He did this the entire time that Tony was in Malaysia.. poor baby! He loves Tony! Awwww......(the girls' favorite expression!) Kat took some pictures around campus....pretty eh? This huge pine tree is on our front yard. This is one of Vickie's teachers. The middle school was raising funds for some social projects and he challenged them if they raised a certain amount he would shaved off his beard and if they raised even more money, he would shave his hair as well! Brave man and they did raised the funds!! Too bad I didn't get the 'after' picture! Vickie is on the far left, as a stage hand during one of their drama production. She ...

A clean bill of Health!

We have been busy with different appointments.....the girls got their vaccination, Tony and I had a general checkup - cholesterol, blood sugar, blood pressure and several other health issues checked. We are basically healthy. Tony needs to have a minor surgical procedure (on his back) which we still have to work on - finding the surgeon,etc. We also went to the dentist today and the girls and I have NO cavities!!!!! The dentist did some cleaning for us but Tony did have to have a filling done. All in all, the Phangs are in pretty good health - Praise the Lord!! We are also so grateful to our doctor and dentist for giving us their services so lovingly and generously- we are so bless! Another friend (we kinda met on this blog:-) got us rooms in a hotel in Penang, a holiday island- kind of! Woohoo!!!! We will get to have a vacation after our ministry time in Ipoh - we are so looking forward to that. Last evening, we took Tony's mom and sister out for a meal and visited with the...

Getting Ready for yet another trip!

Before I forget, I wanted the friends who have left comments on this blog to know that I read your comments as they are automatically sent to my email address. I tried replying to the address in the emails but it doens't get to you - it just redirects me to this blog again. Anyways, I want you to know that I appreciate the comments- tells me someone is reading what I am writing - I wonder sometimes!! Ok, two evenings ago I had another invite to join an evangelist to Goma, also in DRC. They are doing a crusade there- I cannot tell you how much I want to join them but I can't - not this time anyways. We are in the midst of preparing to return to Malaysia for two months to reconnect with churches and friends who supports our work here and also to give our report. We are also trusting God to connect with more people and churches who are interested in our work here. We need to raise so much more to empower and release more laborers to a ripen harvest in AFrica. I am so overwhelm wit...
