A question frequently asked;

“Why send the North American missionaries when nationals can do it?

The concern is that a narrow either/or attitude is more a plot than a plan –a plot to undermine and slow the work of world evangelism.

Our options are not: either support nationals OR send missionaries.

The task is so big we must do both.

The greatest missionary of all, Jesus Christ, left the comforts of Heaven to come to us, to walk among the filth and mire of humanity.

He did not send His angels to do His bidding He came in the flesh to reveal the message of God’s tender mercy.

Because He came for all, we must go to all."

Sharing with you today THEIR testimony of our time in Bukavu;

“I thank the Lord for his servants that came here. When the servants of God came here I was sick. And I never came for the first conference they did. I stand here to say that God sent them to bring us the gospel. it is true that it was God who sent them.

When I was sleeping I had a vision and in that vision I could see that we were gathering with these servants of God. And when we were there in my dream, I saw that there was a group of soldiers and they were looking for them. I asked them "why are you looking for the servants of God?” And those military said that the gospel the servants were speaking was like the militia in their way. 

And I saw how God was covering them. And I started praising God. And I could see that it's God who sent them. I thank God for all the work that they do in all this time that they were here. Everyone that was coming here received and I thank God! 

And it's true that through their teaching God healed me!”

 

 Children attend church from birth. They attend every time the doors are open. They sing and pray and contribute fully.

I was told ..... "In Africa, Church is LIFE!"

GLORY to GOD  in the Church and in 

CHRIST 💝 JESUS THROUGH ALL GENERATIONS 👪  forever and ever!

            amen, amen, amen! 

goats were given to this village. Each family was given 2 goats last year. This year we heard testimony of medicine paid for, education fees for children covered, and many needs met. This program is WORKING! 

Hallelujah!

 Thank you to those of you who have waited patiently for a new word from us!

We are back in Canada and making the difficult adjustment....missing Congo and all those we love, but reunited with our loved ones on this side. It is painful to always miss family on one side or the other, but also a great blessing from God to HAVE loved ones on both sides!

the story I would like to share today is Eric's....

there is a dear lady in Bukavu who lives in severe poverty. She has a huge built-up shoe that assists her walking. However, the shoe is so heavy it limits where she can go and even when. If there has been a strong rainfall, she is limited to areas that are not so slippery. Her home is in a very muddy, steeply hilled area. Her home was also an issue. The roof was not waterproof at all, creating more difficulties for her life. You get the picture.

Missionary Eric, shared the story with his family. Together they decided to intervene on her behalf. 

They had her roof replaced last fall, and she has an appointment for a new shoe, made of lighter materials! The appointment was to take place after our departure, so we will not see a picture for a while.

Thanks to Eric and his family, her life will be so improved by the love they have expressed for her!

Glory to God for these opportunities to show His love and concern for 'the fogotten', and for all of us!

We praise His name!
