Thank you ALL for your continued prayers. It is making a real difference in the lives of many here and for me personally. I have been told I seem to be an extended “honeymoon” period. It is through your prayers and by the grace of God. Your prayers would be appreciated for:
Pastor Moses, for spiritual wisdom and understanding to be able to meet the great challenge he is facing.
Leadership and staff here; that our work is ordered and performed in such a way to be Light to the community and living water to the people she is serving.
Faith Bible Church of Africa, my host church, that her joy would spread to the surrounding neighborhoods and that she would grow big and strong in the Lord.
The needs of so many here can be overwhelming. Pray that God clearly identifies to us who we should help; those that will put the interest of others before themselves i.e. have the heart and capacity to help others after they are helped.
Malaria and other diseases are much more common than I expected; pray for Tim, Fred, Pastor Johnson (not feeling 100%), Yaou, Kate, Patricia, and Kellie. Pray that my health continues to be strong.
God Bless, Joe
