The Promise

This is the inspiring story of the work of John and Billie Barret in the bush country of Kenya, East Africa. 


Billie, a nurse, was used of God to build a medical complex, in an area without electricity, running water and very little money. 


John and their adopted Kenyan son, Thad Omari, developed Christ centered primers in the Swahili dialect. In two years his students were able to write and to read the Bible. Some are pastors of their own churches today. Through many hardships God showed Himself faithful, meeting every need. God uses ordinary people to do mighty works.


The author and publisher pray that this touching book will move you to a closer walk with God.
