(ny-ROH-bee) – “In Nairobi, almost every person you meet on the street will claim to be a Christian,” writes a Nairobi City Team member. “However, most don’t have a genuine understanding of the gospel or they’re following false doctrines such as the prosperity gospel. With the average age of Kenyans being 20 years old, there’s a huge need for harvest laborers to reach university students and young people. Last September, I was invited by some new friends to a Bible study held in a university student hostel. When I attended, I quickly realized that it was unhealthy. The leader of the Bible study was teaching false doctrine, and it often became less about the Bible and more about self. I have continued to attend this study to share the true gospel clearly and pray for the Lord to redeem the study each week. A nearby healthy church has also joined in this ministry to reach these university students, which has been immensely encouraging. Please pray for this Bible study, and others like it throughout Nairobi and Kenya, to be redeemed for God’s glory. May people see the beauty of the true gospel of Jesus. Pray for churches to see the need to reach university students.”
