Missionary Blog Watch

We have a new page here featuring some of our missionary bloggers that are in the USA.  These category would include people who are from another country/culture, or people from the USA who are working full time in a very different culture within the USA.

You can visit the Missionaries in the USA page here.

Here are some recent posts of note from our bloggers in "the States":

Racism - you can see how challenging the clash of cultures can be!

back to school - wow, talk about intercultural

The "Chair Force" - interesting analogy!

Odd Evangelism? - indeed, you never know where people are going to come from!

This week wasn't very blogworthy. - then again, maybe it was!

Adventures in Kenya!
October 9, 2007 09:18

One of our most popular "destinations" here at Missionary-Blogs.com continues to be Kenya.  Of course, you can always see some of the missionaries in Kenya here, but let's swing by some of the blogs and see what's new...

Alas, Denny didn't have the greatest 45th birthday (note: I can't link to an individual post here, but this is the entry from 5 Oct '07)

The Kennys have been dealing with some real challenges, learning some harsh realities of life in Kenya.  But they're excited that they're finally fostering Ava, who they hope to adopt!

Cathy is getting to know the kids, and talking about colours.

It's time for the great lizard hunt!  (Here's an update)

A male dominated society? (oops - can't link to the actual post - check September 5th or 6th or whatever...)

Juli thinks about the great changes and remaining challenges in Kenya, as she talk about Daudi

Some thoughts about public opinion, and sowing and reaping.

More thoughts on Africa, and it all started with My Muslim-mate, Shy, popped in...

Finally, let's visit Adele, who never fails to amaze us with her pictures.  Adventures in Kenya - from physical to spiritual.

I pray for the world
October 16, 2007 08:57

David over at the blog called Lingamish has started a project called "I pray for the world".  It's a blog that features brief articles about various parts of the world, so that people can pray more intelligently and specifically.

The problem is, he's one person in one place, and so, of course, doesn't have the time and knowledge to write about places all over the world.

We get visitors from all over here, so David wanted to send a shout out to anyone who who's interested in writing a brief post.  There needs to be a photo, a brief article (one or two paragraphs) and a prayer.  It doesn't have to be fancy (although I'm sure he doesn't want junk either!).

If you'd be interested in writing just one or two articles to help develop this project, you can contact David using the address on his about page (#4).

Thanks!
