MOMBASA MISSION
This was the most mission trip that I saw God manifesting along the Coast of East Africa Kenya. Most of people who live here are dominated by the Islamic religious. As we remember the trade that took place early before the Portuguese arrived in 15th century along the coast of East Africa.
Arabs came to trade to the the coast of East Africa bringing their religious which was the Islam. They later on intermarriaged with the Bantu of the coast and formed the Swahili people.
Our mission was so successful as we did a lot of door to door evangelism. The people there were so welcoming. Several people gave their lives to the lord.
TRADITIONS
The coastal people like leisure so much, the climate is suitable for that . They enjoy bursting on the sandbeach, the waters of the Ocean...... Most people go there just for relaxing and leisure.I have seen families breaking because of adultery and people hunting for money. These has made most people to be involved in evil deeds morally.
A husband and a wife would just divorce for a months to entertain a foreigner looking for money to feed the family. There are also other evil things, witchcrafts and demonic possession.I met a family which had divorce for some months. I thank God for they gave their lives to Jesus Christ. When I was doing my counseling I came to discover that these family had gone to the beach because of poverty and unemployment. They had a family to look at, so they were forced to sell themselves for money. God have mercy on them.
These people needs a lot of teaching and counseling.
DELIVERANCE
I thank God for His deliverance, people who were possessed were set free indeed. There was a women who was demonic possessed for actually five years . God set her free. Another woman wanted to commit suicide for her husband abandoning her also gave her life to Jesus Christ.
SALVATION
Many people gave their lives to Jesus Christ as we were preaching in Ukunda, Musambweni and Likoni in Mombasa. In Ukunda a lady who was a moslim gave her life to Jesus Christ. This made me remember that JESUS CHRIST came to all the people and that is why He has commissioned as to Go Ye and preach the gospel to all mankind. Matt. 28:19.
