area. Local churches were built in five strategic areas. These were erected by the people themselves and w illin g hearts and hands caused them to go up quickly. Finally a small mission station was bu ilt so the missionaries could remain in the area and serve the people. Before long the elders o f the new churches began to send young people to the Kijabe Bible School. The elders wanted the young peo ple trained in the Word so that they could come back and teach their own people, an admirable idea warmly welcomed by the Mission. The Kisii area had gov ernment schools so many of the young folks had a good basic edu cation although opportunities to continue in high school were lim ited. Suddenly my mind came back to my desk and the task in hand. Finishing the subscription form, I asked Richard Moses where he wanted his subscription sent. “ Send it to the Kijabe Bible School next door,” he said. “ I am a new student. I have just ar rived.” Then rather hesitatingly he asked, “ Can I have the tracts you promised me?” Never having seen him before, I was at a loss to explain the promise that he said I had made. I began to question him, and lit tle by little, the story untangled itself. In 1963 he was living at his home in Kisii country and one day a Kesho magazine had been given to him. The men who at that time were surveying the area had distributed some back copies. He read the magazine and noticed an advertisement inviting him to join the Kesho Tract Club. Not knowing what it was all about, he had nevertheless written in ask ing to join the Club. He had been enrolled as a member and had re ceived his first packet o f tracts. These he was supposed to distrib ute. A letter enclosed in the pack et gave detailed instructions of how to do this.
