Dear Friends,

I just wanted to drop you all a quick note to let everyone know that we are safe and many Kenyans want to get back to a normal life.  On the other hand  it seems that president Kibaki doesn’t want to make any concessions in the  peace talks.  Please pray that he would make some sort of movement that would accomodate the opposition leaders.  Myself and a few others fear that if he will not make substantive concessions then it will be anyones guess what will become of Kenyan.  Turkanans who I have talked with say that they will not be dominated by Kikuyus.  Other tribes in the rest of Kenya are continuing to move to their tribal homelands for fear of what the future holds for them.  If the talks break down, we’ll most likely look at flying out as quickly as possible.

Please pray for me over the next few days.  I’ll be taking a trip to several of our churches in order to move one of our young preachers from his home area to his sending church for a commissioning service and then on to the village where he plans to plant a new church.  It will be an encouraging time to see    another one of our Bible Institute graduates going to start a church, but it will be a long four days with a lot of hard bush driving.

Ericka and the boys are fine.  Vance is doing very well home schooling and Riley and Edward enjoy going to their local Pre-school.  They’ll be here in Lodwar while I’m out.

God bless you all and thank you for your prayers.

In Christ, Bob Clark
