Living Water

"...but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him shall never thirst; but the water that I will give him will become in him a well of water springing up to eternal life.” – John 4:14

Kijani Farm – June Kenya Trip​

We are excited to travel in June to assist this partner ministry in Kenya. Kijani Farm is a place of hope in rural Kenya. Brian and Heather Dellamater started Kijani in 2016 with a goal to inspire hope and create opportunity for the Maasai people through the gospel of Jesus Christ. They come alongside impoverished people in five primary ways – work, church, water, healthcare and education. The Dellamaters find the Maasai people to be community minded and very busy. Clean water distribution is a primary draw for fostering relationships with these herdsmen. A SonSet Solutions Solar Media Center (now called a Solar Ministry Toolkit), installed in 2021, provides the ability to charge cell phones and download media resources while they collect water. The time it takes to charge their phone creates opportunities for the Dellamaters to build relationships in ways that were not previously available. Some of the media they can download include the Jesus Film in their own language as well as Bible Project resources such as animated Bible videos. Just as Jesus met the Samaritan woman at the well and offered her His eternal life-giving water, these people are also coming to Kijani for life-sustaining water and are walking away with the life-giving gospel of Jesus! ​[This information is taken from:  ​Cell Phones Charged – Lives Regenerated - SonSet Solutions]

SonSet® Radio Distribution in Peru

Pictured above is a recipient of a SonSet radio in Peru, where three of our colleagues at SonSet Solutions have just returned from the high elevations of the Cotahausi Canyon. Brad and Gina Shaw serve Jesus with our partner, SIM. For over ten years, we have partnered with the Shaws to provide FM and shortwave radio equipment, enabling them to reach the thousands of people in dozens of communities living in the areas around this deep canyon. Our team carried SonSet radios to distribute to the hardest-to-reach communities: llama and alpaca herders living at very high elevations. Our team also gathered stories of how God and His gospel have been transforming the hearts of many through the radio broadcasts, discipleship, and church-planting. Please pray as these small communities, living as such high elevation, will now be able to hear the good news of the gospel of Jesus through the SonSet radio receivers.

Praises/Thanksgiving Praise the Lord for the opportunity Jean had to speak at a women's retreat in May. God was gracious, and it was a blessed time of fellowship and connections.​​ John's trip to the Netherlands was cancelled. While disappointing, we praise God that this provided for some travel needs for Jean.   Prayer Requests ​Please pray for continued wisdom as we continue to prepare for our upcoming trip! Our goal is to meet some power, IT and health needs at Kijani Farm in Kenya in June. Please pray for the travel. Each leg is around eight hours long. Please continue to pray for Jean as she continues to fill the role in Accounts Payable.
