They provide a wonderful snapshot of the ministry taking place, the people and communities we partner with, and the many meaningful \u2014 and often joyful \u2014 moments shared by the team along the way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Prayer Support<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Prayer remains the primary way we ask our GVCF community to support our Kenya Missions trip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An updated itinerary and key dates will be available on the blog in the very near future. In the meantime, please be praying for the team members as they make their final preparations, and for the many logistics involved in coordinating a trip of this scale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Please also pray for the relationships, ministry opportunities, and conversations that will take place both leading up to and during the trip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This year, we encourage our community to regularly check the blog and follow the team\u2019s itinerary for daily points of prayer throughout the trip.
