Jesus Film Video Players - Arsim Kenya

Sharing the Word with the people of Kenya - God's Plan

At the beginning of Lent 2022, CLC adopted the Jesus Film Ministry as our Lenten Discipline. CLC dreamed of being able to support the Samburu people of Arsim Kenya by purchasing 100 audio devices so the people can hear the Word of God in their own language. For most, this would be a first.
 

During Lent, we heard stories of the ministry of Vincent and Julia Leiyoole and how the Jesus FIlm and the devices have created disciples of Christ. We heard stories of Sahara, Ltapukan, and Ntoiponin in Arsim, Kenya, whose lives have been changed by hearing the Word of God. We heard stories of the trip to Kenya by CLC members in 2018 and how it proved to be life changing. 
     

And we prayed that CLC would be able to support this ministry. We give God thanks for the generosity of all in our Christ Lutheran family who made possible a gift of 130 audio devices.
     

The Word of God can now be a lamp unto the Samburu feet and a light unto their path. Thanks be to God!

Installing security solar flood lights, more new beds, paint etc in the dorms, taking care of sick animals etc, a new roof on the school bathrooms, helping a church member with new goats after all hers were eaten by hyenas, and of course identifying snakes.

      

We praise God for the youth of the Arsim Lutheran church. They are electing a new board and organizing evangelistic efforts. They will volunteer their labor to help build a new ‘kitchen’ for the church. We will provide the materials, as God provides. The area they used to cook is ravaged by time, storm damage and termites. Pray for this work....every Lutheran church needs a kitchen

                       Milagro School for Young Women in Guatemala

Casa Milagro (Miracle) School for Young Women

One ministry of our Synod partner, Iglesia Luterana Augustina de Guatemala (ILAG), is Casa Milagro. The MILAGRO Women’s Education Center allows rural young women to continue their education and develop a wide range of skills vital to a future of improved daily living. Utilizing these skills, the women are empowered to return to their communities to start sustainable businesses and to serve as leaders and examples to be followed in their churches, community and families. CLC is a financial partner to this ministry ( https://iglesialuteranaagustina.org/casa-milagro/ ), our youth have visited Milagro in Guatemala.

 

 

Some of the Milagro student residents who study in a Christian environment in order to increase their possibilities in life. Studies are in various fields, for example, health care, IT, business, teaching ... with the intention of being leaders and examples when they return to their communities.
