“I WAS IN a v<strong>all</strong>ey burning<br />

with red-hot fire,” says Gregory<br />

Wafula. “There was a cross lifted<br />

up, and on the cross an open<br />

Bible, and I could see an angel.<br />

Next I saw a sm<strong>all</strong> light from<br />

heaven shining on my face and<br />

my body shook. Then the command<br />

came: ‘Preach the gospel<br />

to the people who are in the<br />

V<strong>all</strong>ey <strong>of</strong> Decision.’”<br />

Gregory was just 26 years<br />

old – and not one month old<br />

in Christ – when he saw this<br />

vision and heard the command<br />

to evangelise. It is a vision he<br />

has vigorously pursued and a<br />

command he has continuously<br />

obeyed in the 16 years since,<br />

and has led to his current position<br />

as Multiply Apostolic Man<br />

for East Africa.<br />

It could <strong>all</strong> have been so<br />

was important in the Quaker<br />

Church, the dominant denomination<br />

in western Kenya, where<br />

Gregory grew up, he could have<br />

settled for a comfortable Christian<br />

life. A direct word from a<br />

preacher at a student crusade in<br />

India shook his complacency:<br />

“Your father is a founder <strong>of</strong><br />

a church – but that does not<br />

qualify you for the kingdom <strong>of</strong><br />

God.” Gregory felt the cutting<br />

word and humbly put up his<br />

hand to accept Christ.<br />

To be a disciple takes decisions<br />

– not just one, but many,<br />
