Dave and Cristyn Wakefield are preparing to serve at Moffat Bible College in Kijabe, Kenya. Give thanks they have now booked their flights! Praise God for how He has brought them to this point in their journey towards landing in Kenya to obey their calling to serve Him there. Pray that the Holy Spirit will fill them with trust in Him and peace in their hearts as they prepare mentally, emotionally and practically, to leave familiar people, places and routines and embrace this huge life change. Pray that the Lord will be close to their children, Stevie and Caleb, as they follow their parents and adapt to change also.

This, and the fact that Dave and Crysten have been given financial clearance to travel, means that the family are now able to make solid plans to move to Kenya. Pray for smooth logistics and loving goodbyes as they move forward in their calling to share the gospel in Africa.
