From Place to Place: Day 2

We're on our second day of translation work and in our second location. Each day it has taken a lot of prayer and perseverance to first communicate the need and then secure a satisfactory setting for translation. Subacio is a Catholic retreat center in Karen on the outskirts of Nairobi, Kenya. It is known as a place of quiet for meditation and prayer. While most talk in quiet tones, yet the things that create havoc for recording are cars and trucks passing just meters from the main building, doors squeaking and slamming when opening and closing, guard dogs barking at night, and 23 coed college students from the Netherlands unacquainted and unconvinced about the desire for quiet -- especially upon arrival at 1 a.m.

Oh, the challenges of a project like this!

PLEASE PRAY that God would provide the right set up each day to carry out this mission of translating Scott Gilchrist's (senior pastor at Southwest Bible Church, Beaverton, Oregon) 18 sessions of teaching through the New Testament book of Romans into French and Swahili.
