We praise God that He made a way for Together Building Africa to get food and supplies to the vulnerable seniors that we support!

They each received a large bag of food to sustain them until the streets are less frightening.

The long blue item they are holding is an excellent laundry soap made in Congo (your whites will never be whiter!) The other item is an oil that protects their skin from the harsh climate.

Please note the lady in the front, with the black and white scarf over her shoulder. She does not seem to  be celebrating ...... she is overcome with tears

URGENT...

 PLEASE 

PRAY 

FOR CONGO!!!

good counsel

"In order to reach this generation with the Gospel of Jesus,

we can't think small. We must take bold steps, abandon the reasonable,

embrace the ridiculous, and watch God move!"

I have posted this before, but it is always a great reminder...

To love the Lord our God Is the heartbeat of our mission

The spring from which our service overflows

Across the street Or around the world

The mission's still the same Proclaim and live the Truth

In Jesus' name

(The Mission - Steve Green)

Good News!

 An update on what TBA has been doing…. 

We were supporting a church plant in a new area.

It has been growing and doing very well.

Last year, the owner of the land the church is built on, decided to sell the property. That would have meant the loss of the church structure and left no place for the congregation to meet.

But God had a plan. 

A Canadian pastor’s heart was moved by the threat of losing this place of worship. He shared it with the church and they decided to prepay the monthly rent for 28 months in advance to secure the property. 

Bethsiada Church in DRC, chose to use that donation to negotiate the purchase of the land!! Praise God. We and they are so thankful.

However, God’s plans were not yet fulfilled…..another church in this small town turned up at my door with funds to rent the land behind our church…..

Bethsaida Church had already paid a portion of the sale price. The new rent money was enough to secure the property.

God willing, the land will be used to open an ORPHANAGE!!!

There are 4.2 million orphans in D.R. Congo! The UN reports that DRC has the largest number of child soldiers in the world! Imagine! 

We ask God to do what only He can accomplish. We pray that He will enable us to provide basic amenities for widows and orphans.

Please PRAY that He will complete His plans for this great vision! 

All glory to Him who alone is God, our Saviour through Jesus Christ our Lord. All GLORY, MAJESTY, POWER, and AUTHORITY are HIS before all time, and in the present, and beyond all time! AMEN.

Jude 1:25

May God's grace be with you all!

Together Building Africa is still at work and going forward as God leads.

Our Tupende Wazee (love our seniors) group are still being fed and celebrating being together, benefitting from encouragement, companionship, and teaching. There is no system in place to support these people, many of whom have experienced great losses. We have seen lives changing dramatically through this program, as they develop a renewal of strength and hope!

UZIMA the sewing project is forging ahead with 9 students. We anticipate their graduation at the end of the year. They are being trained to become tailors. The east Congo has no garment factories, so this provides a marketable skill. UZIMA targets those living in abject poverty.

In addition, we are seeking an effective answer for a few of the 4 million orphans in the country. Pray for us as we seek God's guidance and wisdom.

In the Democratic Republic of Congo, when people are suffering and in need, they turn to the churches. Therefore, working through the church promotes trust and protects the culture.

Thank you to all of have remained faithful! We feel blessed by your presence!

Oh Happy Day!
