Dear Brethren,
Praise be to God for the ability of communicating with you through my reports. Thank you very much for your prayers for us to run the church. As at now, we have seen one lady converted. Anyway, we are so happy that you are really concerned with the work in Sinda. We have people who belong to different Baptist Churches who are trying to destroy our work. They are trying to get our members by promising them nice things if they join their churches. But as for me I have decided to remain faithful in praying for both our members and those who persecute us by destroying the work of the lord.
NICOLUS M. Mr. Nicolus was one of the first converts in 2006. But now he has left us to join other Baptist Churches. Additionally, he is spreading a bad reputation for our church. The main reason he left was that he was caught drinking and smoking. Therefore, he was put on church discipline then he decided to leave. We have tried to talk to him but he is not ready to come to us and more - pray for his sins.
LOZI P. (Not Real Names) She is 70 years of age. She has been attending our Sunday services since the church was planted there in Sinda. Fortunately, when the Grace of God was reveled to her, she realized that she was a sinner and needed help. Her main problem was practicing witchcraft (among many other sins she mentioned). Our mission's coordinator, brother Wilson K., visited us and took him and his wife to this old lady who used to practice witchcraft magic. This time all she spoke about is Jesus Christ; she eager even to get baptized. However, pray for her as she is still weak in attending church meetings.
THE MISSIONS CO-ORDINATOR The coordinator and his wife visited us to see how the members are doing with their spiritual lives. The church was glad to be visited by our sending church. This was an encouragement; we were very glad to receive them. I did accompany them when they visited Katete to see what is on the ground and to Chitabe to see the pastor Mathews B. and the people. Anyways, our prayer is that you may continue visiting us.
PRAYER REQUESTS 1. Pray for Miss Lozi P. to stand strong in the Lord. 2. Pray for Mr. Nicholus M. who has left us to join another church. 3. Pray for spiritual and numerical growth. 4. Pray for funds for the Church Project.
Yours in Christ's Name,
Germany B. Missionary Pastor
