A Note for Prayer from Manila
We have heard our missionaries Malcolm and Mary Cleoppe are fine but please pray for this country. Below is a note from some other friends in the Philippines.
Dear praying folks,
We are at the school for a couple of minutes since the internet is working well here. We are without phone, internet or cell signal at our home so feel a little isolated. As we come to the close of this day (Thursday), we are tired but ok. We wanted to let you know that we are doing well and that an even bigger storm is heading toward us and expected to hit by Saturday. WE have no idea how long we may be out of touch so wanted to update you while we had the chance.
Things here are bad: The death count is way over 200, many are homeless and if they are not homeless, all of their things are destroyed (many barely escaped the flood waters with their lives);

Prayer Request for Kenya
Friends,
This coming Sunday we will be conducting a seminar with a church in the city. We have worked with the couples in the church for the past year and the transformation that has happened; from salvation to rededication to the things of God to spouses getting back together- we have enjoyed every moment with them. We are giving a mini-seminar as we launch another couples’ study (HomeBuilders) to about 50 of them. Pray with us as we prepare and also on the day of the seminar. That the Word of God will dwell so richly in each one of the couples and that we will facilitate while giving it all that God has given us.
We are so appreciative of your partnership – there is no way we can do it alone!
Yours serving Every Home in Kenya,
James & Chao Wanje

Medical Supplies for Kenya
To Our Go Global Team
Just wanted you to see a great little video that shows how we are partnering with God in Kenya. This medical center is a result of our partnership with 410 Bridge and the people of the village of Kwambakenya. Also we would like to invite you to a rummage sale put on by some of our teens from PLC to buy supplies for the center. The center is ready and has a nurse but is lacking supplies. The rummage sale is October 17th at 2211 Barkwood, Cedar Falls. Come and buy something or just make a donation.
