Visit to Kapsabet Bible Training Center


We had a great weekend visiting in Kapsabet where we have two Bible Training Centers.  This was our first road trip with our own vehicle and, though the roads are in terrible conditions, we had a safe and blessed journey to the beautiful mountainous tea raising region.  Having our own car is such a blessing and far more economical than hiring vehicles.

We have 19 Bible students in the Kapsabet BTC and over 200 students in the Kapsabet Prison school learning the Biblical Foundation Course.  The prisoners do not have bibles and we are praying for God to provide.  Pastor Robert, on the right in the picture, will be attending our 4th Teacher Training in Kitale this weekend.  Pastor Philip attended our 2nd Teacher Training.  He is the Chaplain in the Prison and in charge of the classes there as well as the Life Changing Discipleship BTC in Kapsabet.

We thank God for these mens' initiative and hard work so many untrained pastors and church leaders are now studying the Word.  These students are spiritually hungry for Bible teaching.  We taught the Old Testament books of Ezra, Nehemiah and Esther and an introduction to their two new course books.

We trust the Lord to return to the area in a few weeks time to visit the Kabeyet Life Changing Discipleship Training BTC just an hour away from Kapsabet.  Pastor Ernest has just completed teaching their 1st semester and has invited us many times; but only now with a vehicle is this trip possible.
