Last Thursday we were blessed to spend a day in the bush with faithful Pastor\/Church Planter Daniel Kalasinga. He accepted Christ 34 years ago and immediately began ministering the Gospel of reconciliation to his own Maasai people first, and then beyond! His ministry has literally reached from Central Kenya as far as Tanzania, Uganda, and well into the great \u2018Northern Frontier\u2019 of Kenya.<\/p>\n

Kalasinga & Mariamu<\/p><\/div>\n

This photo was taken over TEN years ago \u2013 he was an \u201cold man\u201d then! (\u201cMzee\u201d in Swahili means \u201cold man\u201d in an honorable<\/i> way!) His faithful wife, Mariamu, has stayed by his side, encouraging him through many difficult times!<\/p>\n

Because of their age, we helped them build a new home near their main church in the trading centre of \u201cDol Dol\u201d. Our trip on Thursday was to mainly see their new home and have prayer of dedication.<\/p>\n

Kalasinga’s New House<\/p><\/div>\n

Of course, there were lots<\/i> of children around! Daniel & Mariamu have fed many hungry children, in this drought prone area, out of their own meagre pantry for three decades!<\/p>\n

Kalasinga’s Family<\/p><\/div>\n

Some good old Maasai Buttermilk was a must! Justice Brown had to go through the initiation! He loved <\/i>it!!!<\/p>\n

Pastor Kalasinga insisted that we drive up through the forest about 2 hours to a spectacular view point. The view towards the North and East facing Ethiopia and Somalia was an unforgettable reminder of the \u201cregions beyond\u201d which are still to be reached with the Gospel!<\/p>\n

It reminded me of Paul\u2019s challenge to the rich Corinthian church (who thought they were suffering \u2014 but, in fact, were quite rich compared to other early Christians). He challenged them saying: \u201c\u2026having hope, when your faith is increased, that we shall be enlarged by you\u2026 to preach the gospel in the regions beyond you\u2026\u201d (2 Cor. 10:15-16)<\/i><\/p>\n
