The mission in Kisumu came to an end on Sunday with a church service at the A.I.C. Nyateng' local church in Central Kolwa District Church Council. It was a combination service that involved about five other churches that fall under that particular church district. The service was led by the associate pastor Thaddeus who had been with us on mission for the entire duration of the time we were visiting schools and churches in that region. We got some time as the Diguna members there to also bless the church through songs and drama and the preaching of the Word.

I was the preacher and I got my theme from Luke 7 where John asks Jesus if He was the Messiah or if they should expect someone else. The crux of the message was the place we accord Jesus in our lives. Is He the one you met as you made the decision to become a Christian, or has he changed and become someone or something else?

The mission is over now and the team traveled to Nairobi yesterday and were here in Diguna Mbagathi waiting to return home today morning. I had to take the bus because there was not enough space on the team truck. I would have loved to be part of the team as they travel back, but it would be unwise to get into traffic trouble, and it is against the law of the land.
My seat on the early morning bus was booked, my bags were with the team, heading to Nairobi, I was at my brother's place in Kisumu town watching tv and trying to think of what's ahead. I am totally spent, and as I expected , I was sleep all the way to Nairobi.

Today, I return to my flat in Rongai and start thinking of what's ahead. The one thing I am sure of is that the matter that will affect me every month, is the one called Rent!
