.. Kenya sow or go is a ministry of the Eagles Nest Christian
Centre in Yass, NSW,
 Australia.

My name is Sylvia Suhr, a mother to four and grandmother
to six.
I am 63 years. Born in the UK and immigrated to Australia in
1968. I was born
 again in 1982 in Melbourne Australia and have been on the
God journey ever
since then. My mission is to preach the gospel and carry the
love of God to Africa
and Asia.
I started my overseas missions in 1997 when I went to the
Philippines with
a team from our church with Pastor David Croker.We went
to Butuan in
Mindinao where we shared our testimonies and preached
the gospel.
Thousands of people had the opportunity to have their lives
and circumstances
changed by the power of God. Many miracles were recorded.
..blind eyes
 were opened...the lame walked and many were set free from
the bondage
of satan.
My next mission was to Kenya with a team from another
church. God
said to me, "Many of my children in Africa are dying with
no arms to
hold them" Even though I didn't have the money to go on
this mission
I said 'yes' to God and He showed me to sell all that I had
and just go!
When I met up with the team in Sydney I asked them if it
 would be ok for
me to stay on in Kenya after the team had left and they
agreed. On this
mission we taught in the bible school, preached at crusades,
shared our
 testimonies and saw many lives changed by the power of
 God. After the
team left I continued to teach in the schools and churches
and saw many
 things that changed my life forever. I remember seeing a
child of two years
whose parents had died from HIV/AIDS he looked like a
 6 month old
baby as I carried him out of the back of a hut where he was
dying from
malnutrition and dehydration. Many people leave the children
to die when
 the parents have died with HIV/AIDS because of the stigma
attached.
I came home after 4 months but I was never to be the same
again. In 2003
 I again set off on another adventure, this time back to England
to visit my
family and work with the aged and disabled for 9 months. It
was good to
see my family again and God was able to restore relationships
with members
 of my family. From England I went back to Kenya.
This time to a place called Mbita, a little fishing village by the
shores of
Lake Victoria. I lived amongst the people of Mbita for almost
2 years and
got to know a lot of their language and customs. My memories
 of Mbita are
 very precious as thousands of people came to know Jesus during
the time
 I was there and took teams out to the villages to preach the
gospel. I returned
home and stayed with my daughter for some time but my heart
was breaking
 for the lost in third world countries.
I was invited to visit a pastor and work alongside him at
Smokey Mountain
in Manila in the Philippines and so again I packed my bags
and off I went.
This was also a time of fruitfulness as any of the people there
were open to
the gospel message and turned to Jesus. We were able to help
distribute
 nutrition to many of the children and saw many lives changed
there too.
In October of 2007 I again set flight to Africa. I went to Malawi
 to visit Bishop
Beston Makawa in Blantyre. I was very warmly met at the airport
 by Beston
and the team. I love Malawi and the people are so humble and
gentle. The
team had such a beautiful sense of unity and one-ness and we
were able to
visit many of the remote villages and preach the gospel and see
 the lealing
power of God in action as we layed hands on the sick.
From Malawi I flew to Kenya where I was met at the airport by
 some very
friendly people with a lovely bunch of flowers. Michael Wafula
is a special
man who has 21 children, most of these are not his own but
children he has
adopted. The house he used to live in has now become a
school for orphans
in Kitale and he rents a house for himself, his wife and some
of the younger
children. I was able to speak at a youth conference there about
 the love of
God and His power to change lives and see people set free.
From Kitale I travelled to Homa Bay where I met with a friend
from Mbita
who I was to work alongside for the next few months. Ben Ouko
 was the
YWAM base leader when I was in Mbita and he had invited
me to work
alongside him in ministry. The main highlight for us was when
 we visited
a school called Got Kabok near to Homa Bay. When we saw
 the children
in this school we wept and all we could do was pray and ask
God to change
their situation. The many orphans were at school each day with
 no breakfast,
no lunch and maybe some maize porridge in the evening. We
prayed for them
and saw God do a miracle. We went back to the school with
some bags of
maize and armed with the gospel we were privilaged to preach
 the gospel to
most of the families in the area where many accepted Jesus .
We also gave
each family 2 tins of maize which was not much but it was a
beginning. Peaple
at my home church did some fund raising and we were able
 to buy food so
that now Ben is able to provide a meal each day for each of
the children in
the school. This is a project that needs much prayer as this
area is very much
affected by the HIV/AIDS situation. During the time I was in
 Kenya the elections
were held and most of the world knows what happened after
the elections....
many thousands of lives were affected by the violence and
 bloodshed.
People were angry because the voting was said to be rigged
and the
country was in a panic situation. I managed to get home in late
 January and
have been home for 3 months now. It has been good to spend
time with my
family and friends but now it is time to go back and continue to
see lives
changed by the love and power of God as I return to Africa on
the 6th of May.
