Prayer Alert

Thanks to all who were praying with us on Sunday. We did meet in Burgersdorp, unfortunately Eddy was unable to be there, as he was sick, and we really wanted to talk to him face to face. Anyway, we clearly laid out why we had come to Burgersdorp and why we felt that it was time to leave. We are praying that the Lord will use this to get hold of some hearts in this village down the road. Keep praying for this place.

Sunday afternoon we had a great service in Motupa. David did a great job preaching on the Sower and the Seed. Afterwards, Thomas approached David and told him that he was lost and is 'ready' to give his life to Jesus. We are supposed to go and meet with him tomorrow afternoon at 3, we are praying that he will get saved! Thomas is actually from Zim., but lives over an hour from Motupa. He was sent to Motupa for a few months on a work contract with his employer, and started joining us for the services. He is due to return home again in December. God's timing is amazing!

Godfrey was present on Sunday afternoon as well. Fels walked home with him after the service and preached to him for an hour about how to confess his sins, repent, and believe on the Lord. I believe that Godfrey will be saved very soon! Fels has been saved for 2 months, and has already been a powerful witness for the Lord. On Saturday, he said that he had nothing to do, so he went walking around all day, looking for friends and acquaintances to give his testimony to and preach the Gospel! Lord willing we will baptize him a week from Sunday.

Thanks for your prayers, they do make a difference!

Thanks for the prayer alerts. They have been really helpful in "timely" praying...especially because the prayer requests are so fresh in our memory.

Let us know which village the Lord directs you to next!
