An International Visitor

As many of you know my role with HFL has changed since my
return and I am now working as the Office Manager. It is something
that I absolutely love and even though it does not involve
traveling all over the world it does enable others to directly
impact the world for Christ. God showed me this in a very real
way a couple of weeks ago.

We have an international partner in Kenya, Edgar, who has for
months been trying to obtain a Visa to come to Canada. The
purpose for his visit to Canada was to meet with an HFL partner
who is working with him. However the local partner here is
sick and unable to travel anymore but is still able to directly
impact Edgar’s ministry by funding an orphanage in Kenya.
While it may seem simple to travel from Kenya to Canada, it
truly isn’t. After being denied twice by the Canadian Consulate
in Kenya, Edgar made one last attempt to obtain a visa for his
trip. Long story short, the consulate required proof that he had
reason to return home. To do this we needed to wire funds to
his account in Kenya. Our Director of Finance was away and so
I was responsible for coordinating the wire transfer that enabled
Edgar to get his visa.

Since then Edgar has arrived in Canada and I have had the
privilege of spending time with him. I have heard all that God
has done and what He continues to do in Kenya.

God used me in a small way to accomplish great things for His
Kingdom. What more can he accomplish through me when I
obey even in the little things!
