Prayer Alert

A few men who need your prayers...

Sam Shingange...We have an appointment tomorrow morning at 10 to meet with Sam and discuss the possibilities of starting Bible studies with him, and hopefully a group of people at his house. He called me today to say that he had met with the 'chief' of the village, who has forbidden any more churches to begin meeting in their village of Mhangweni. I don't know what the solution is at this point, that is what we will be looking for tomorrow, but I do know that the Word of God will not be bound by a mortal man, 'chief' though he may be. Please Pray!

Lefty Malatjie...Some time ago we came into contact with this man through our correspondence Bible studies. He came to us several months ago requesting our help with 'starting a church', but was very deep as a 'preacher' in the Charismatic movement. We met with him and obviously scared him off with the truth. Then, two months ago I received a letter from him, declaring that he rejects the doctrine of the 'sign gifts', and wants to receive more teaching. I met with him today and he again affirmed that desire. He is to be with us on Sunday for the services in Motupa, and Lord willing, we will begin to do some intense work with him, beginning with his testimony. Please pray for this man, perhaps God really wants to do something through his life. Charismatic preachers are a dime a dozen over here, and most often prove to be nothing more than hirelings, playing a religious game and making merchandise of the things of God. Sometimes you find a jewel in the midst of the mess....hopefully Lefty can turn out to be a jewel!
