Catalog Party

We've viewed and catalogued about 6 hours of footage so far and we're discussing and praying about footage and interviews we still need here in America. We're realizing the difficulty of taking a journey that impacted us so deeply and making a film that is informative as well as emotionally engaging for people who have never been to Africa-- it's harder than it seems. We're seeking God and finding the heart of this film's power will be in the juxtiposition (seeing side-by-side) of Kenyan and American life. So please keep praying for us, and let us know if you'd like to help! We have a lot of work ahead. Pray for Hannah as she moves off to college in Oregon, for Alex and Ariel as they begin leading small groups on a monthly basis. Rachael has just returned from Minessota, where she was a midwife for a missionary friend of hers. Esther and Briana are faithful and a blessing as usual, helping dream for the documentary. Russ is back into the rythm of life and work, and Grace is moving forward with some micro-financing dreams through Agape. Pray for her endeavours there. Amanda is back to work at Rody Chiropractic and North is praying for the right fulltime job.
We will continue with this project as God provides the guidance and the means, and we ask any readers here to join us: comment on this blog, contact a Field Team Member, Anything you can do to be a part of the big things God is doing in Kenya and around the world.

We're Still Moving

Hello again Joy of Life Kenya supporters. It's been a few weeks, but we're still on the move. Last night we performed the human video in Pioneer Park. Many people stopped and watched. We're computer shopping and starting to catalog footage . Please pray for us to assemble this film in an effective and emotionally engaging way. Pray that the passion will help us to persevere. Thankyou so much. Also remind others to keep checking up on this blog!
