Together we can.

 Partnership is when people join together to complete a goal or meet a need that is greater than what they could do on their own. When you partner with Two Burning Candles, you are making a commitment to support the ministry through your giving, traveling or through prayer.  

You may not have the time or ability to travel around the world, but when you support our mission you are reaching people for Christ. It’s because of people like you that we are able to help children and their families, share the message of Jesus Christ, and love people through-out the world. 

We have come full circle it seems. We left a snowy Paris and arrived in a snowy Amsterdam with a temp of -10C. I was unable to post for the last few days. We spent Tuesday working at the center and looking over the new catch tank that will help water the farm crops.

When we are in Wyumiririe we are so far out in the bush that I (being a passport carrier) can’t buy data. I can only buy in towns, the nearest one being 30 minutes away by car. I had run out of data which posed a problem not only for posting on Facebook but for getting our COVID test results. When I couldn’t access them we had them forwarded to my manager, Florah. Come to find out when you forward them the results are obscured and unreadable. I was a bit panicked but my brave manager just called the lab directly and they, AMAZINGLY, took her call and worked with us through her e-mail so that we got our TT codes on Wednesday morning and thought we were all set. By God’s good provision we arrived at the airport 5 hours early only to find out that we had to get a different COVID test because we were flying through Amsterdam.  So we boarded transport to be taken to a testing site and be tested again and wait for results! I always am humbled by my lack of faith. I was tired, hungry, and at my breaking point but kept telling myself to be calm, God has this. In the midst of that Pastor Mike from Lakeside Baptist Church texted me and asked what they could pray for. How awesome God is! He speaks to you from across the world through faithful people and you don’t realize it until you are through the situation! Praying that I will have the faith to see it when I am in the middle of the problem!

And then you are in a city airport with Heinz ketchup and not the pink watery stuff we have had for 3 weeks! Back to being thankful for the small things! This ketchup was actually RED and thick! We were excited for chalupa (food in Swahili and Ken’s favorite Swahili word)!
