 The reports coming out of Kenya and Uganda are lengthy to
record as a result of the shear workmen like attitude our brethren have
with regard to preaching the gospel. Add to that, an intense love for
Christ accompanied with a burden for the lost and we see a book of Acts
type ministry unfolding before our very eyes. We simply praise the Lord and
we stand in awe of the number of souls saved, baptized and New Testament
Churches planted. So many new villages are being reached on a monthly basis
that it is difficult for us to keep up with. Sister Terry and I personally
worked in over fifty villages during our years in country but that number
has more than doubled since 2015. Some of those villages are at the base of
Mt. Elgon and some are near the peak on the Kenya and Uganda border. Newly
reached villages include: Kamachei, Nakoba, Mianga, Namanje, Matili,
Kimatuni and Chesamisi. Additionally we have great news that our ministry
is preparing to cross the border into another neighboring East African
nation. I'll share those details on that expansion in the coming month's.

As you can see from the below picture, Grandmother, Mother and
her two children recently trusted Christ in Nakoba.

(Left) These are some of the ladies of Nakoba who have gathered
together to hear God's Word preached. Notice nobody has a Bible in their
hands. Since this picture was taken we have sent dozens of Bibles for these
new converts. (Below) are a group of Men from Nakoba gathering to discuss
starting worship services. The old man in the suit has surrendered to the
ministry and is currently being trained to become their Pastor. John & Romans Arrive For Evangelism

(ABOVE) Picture: From left to right, Pastor George of the Landmark
Baptist Church of Siaya. His wife Ann and a Church leader from LBC Ndivisi who
accompanied the steel trusses and poles to Lake Victoria. You can clearly see
the joy Pastor and His wife have on their faces as they know God has provided
and blessed their faithness. We thank our Ministry partners who continue to
prayfully and finanically invest in the Lords work in East Africa.Thirteen Baptized in the Kerio Valley
 
 Solar Audio Bibles Continue to be Distributed ABOVE) Solar powered audio Bibles in the Pokot and Karamojong language
continue to make their way into the hands of new converts in the Kerio Valley.
We are making every effort to get these Bibles to new Christians to help them
to grow in their faith. We thank God for our Ministry partners who provide this
much needed tool to those who cannot read or write.

The (ABOVE) picture is a group of members of the newly planted
Church at Lukhome. If you will take a close look you will notice that they
are holding twenty pieces of Mabati= (Tin Roofing) our ministry has provided.
It is important to note that we do not provide a sanctuary for every new
Church plant and in the case of Landmark Baptist Church at Lukhome, they
built their own indigenous structure. We received word that a storm has blown
the thatch grass roof off and they needed help. This is a great insight into
our methodology as we encourage these new works to do what they can by depending
on God and then partner with them as we see the need arise.

Bricks for 2nd Bible Institute
As you can see from the (below) picture, bricks are being made
by the thousands for our second Landmark Baptist Bible Institute to be
located in the Kerio Valley. I can't adequately describe the immense amount
of work it takes to mix mud, make and bake bricks with limited amounts of
water available in a semi-arid region. This Bible Institute is needed to
train preachers coming out of Uganda and those in the Kerio Valley. They are
making bricks without any support believing that God will bless the work of
their hands and provide the necessary resources for building a dormitory.
Would you pray for God's provision and consider partnering with these Men of
God? Special Thanks to 1st Baptist Church of Kingstowne and
FISH MinistriesWe thank our God for the
Churches of the American Baptist Association as well as individual friends,
family and brethren who partner with Sis. Terry and I in East African and
Florida. Please keep us and the Lord's Churches in Prayer as we push towards
the mark of the high calling in Christ Jesus.
In His Service,
Bro. Chuck & Sis. Terry
