Dear Praying Friends,
Thank
you so much for your prayers and support for us and our work here in Zambia.
The LORD has greatly blessed His work in Africa! One of the greatest blessings
to us over the last couple of months was a visit from my friend and sending
church pastor, Chris Teis. We were greatly blessed by his time and work here.
Accompanying him on the trip was Bro. Andrew Garcia, a Christian filmmaker, who
is planning to make a short documentary on how God brought Elijah into our
lives. The film will appropriately be called Elijah and should be released toward the end of the summer. During
their time in Zambia, they shot video and conducted interviews for this film
project. We are excited for this film and believe it will be greatly used to
bring glory to the LORD! Here is a link
to some of the scenic footage Andrew captured during the trip.
We
were also able to do some preaching in a new village area during their trip to
Zambia. We spent the night in the bush and preached to several gathered in the
village of Nsalali. There were between 30 and 40 who made a profession of faith
in Christ and showed interest in seeing a church started in their area. Please pray for us (and specifically for Bro.
Decision Siampondo) as we continue to work in this area for the cause of
Christ. In addition, this village area has 5 schools that have welcomed us
to teach and preach the Bible weekly in the schools. Bro. Decision makes the 40-mile
circuit each week on his bicycle. I am praising the LORD for Bro. Decision’s
dedication to the work of Christ!
During
Pastor Chris’ visit, he encouraged us in the starting of a one-on-one
discipleship program at the Fallsview Bible Baptist Church. I have already
started with one man in our church and am training 5 or 6 of our church leaders
to be able to do the same with others. Please
keep this exciting and needful ministry in your prayers.
Finally,
we would like to give sincere and heartfelt thanks to the Broadway Baptist
Church in Muskegon, Michigan, for their generous love offering, which they gave
toward our building project. We are set to begin this week with making some
progress on our building. We will do the roofing on the “classroom section” of
our church building. Thank you, Broadway Baptist, for helping to push the work
of Christ forward in Livingstone!
Let me
also take time to let you know how much we appreciate your kind thoughts,
cards, and expressions of love during Preetika’s birthday and our 11th
anniversary. You encourage us more than you know!
