Thank you to all who prayed for our recent trip to the Middle East. God protected us as we were able to engage many Muslims hungry for hope! Our team of six from Texas, Indiana and Montana “toured” this country so rich in Biblical history. Daniel, Esther, Nehemiah and Ezra all lived in this country, as well as Kings Xerxes and Darius.
As desperate as Africa is physically, this “closed country” is spiritually. For Christians to speak the name of Jesus to the wrong person would mean sure imprisonment and possible death by hanging or stoning. Despite very real dangers, believers in this country have a boldness that can only be attributed to the Holy Spirit. We are challenged by their willingness to evangelize in the face of certain persecution.
Despite all the negatives we see on TV in regard to this particular country, God is pouring out His Spirit there. Revival is happening and thousands are being saved daily! PLEASE PRAY FOR THIS AREA OF THE WORLD!

| Africa Mission Trip May 2010
|
|| |
A team of 12 from Amarillo, TX, planned a mission trip to Africa, from May 10‐20 to serve at
the “Morning Star Children’s Home”— the Orphanage that their church, Grace Community,
was responsible for building. Pastor Bill Gehm and his wife, Cindy, longtime friends of Billy
and Kristi Hobbs, were among them. Kristi and Darleen Honc were invited to ‘tag along’ in
exchange for help in planning the logistics of transportation for the team. The plan was for
Kristi and Darleen to travel with the group and then part ways once in Kenya since they
would be ministering at the “JESUS. Hobbs House of Hope.”
Then tragedy struck one month before the trip. On Easter Sunday, Pastor Stephen
Gachengo called with news that 40 women from his church in Nairobi were in a bus
accident, resulting in several deaths. Since Pastor Stephen oversees “Morning Star,”
it looked like the trip would be cancelled, BUT GOD had other plans. Pastor Bill called Kristi and asked if she and Darleen would be willing to oversee the team, taking them to the “House of Hope,” while he and his wife ministered to Pastor Stephen and his grieving church.
That is what we did, and the result was a blessing, not only for the children at the “House of Hope,” but for the team as well. As it turned out, they also got to spend several days at “Morning Star” after all. “God works ALL things together for good.” Rom.8:28
