Thank you to all of you who faithfully pray for us;
"the man or woman at home who prays often has as much to do with the effectiveness of the missionary on the field, and consequently with the results of his or her labours, as the missionary" R.A. Torrey evangelist and pastor
You are a great help to us!
We hold RURAL pastor conferences, reminding them they are not random, forgotten or overlooked. Heaven knows their names!
Even though we felt under-prayed for this great event, God still over-delivered.
So thankful!
Between 150-200 attended.
We extend our sincere thank you for supporting TBA. We were able to meet the urgent needs of 54 orphaned children with food and non-food items. Supplies included bread, sugar, powdered milk, oatmeal, soap, lotion for girls, and other basic hygiene products.
We also received support for our Elderly (Tupende Wazee)
Food assistance was also extended to vulnerable elderly people under the Tupende Wazee (love our seniors) program, ensuring that they, too, received care and encouragement in this challenging season.
My mission report testifies that the church of Christ and TBA ministry remain both a refuge and a beacon of hope in the DRC, meeting spiritual needs through the gospel and addressing physical needs through acts of compassion.
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
"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)
