Ministry Visits

Greetings all, just another quick update to inform you of the various people we have been meeting with since arriving in Johannesburg. We have been staying with Tim & Michelle Cantrell and family. This has been a real blessing and we have learned about their ministry at Antioch Bible Church and joined them on Sunday as Tim taught through Ephesians 6:1-4. In the evening Donald briefly told the church about Samfya and then taught from 2 Timothy 1:6-10 - a young woman who had been coming to church for about 6 weeks committed her life to Christ. Praise the Lord for His amazing salvation - His purpose of grace!
We also meet with Chris & Megan Wooley on Monday. Chris is Pastor of Midrand Chapel and we were able to talk and share about church ministry and also share about the work at Samfya. What a blessing to be with men and women who love the Lord and are committed to God’s Word! This morning (Tuesday) Donald also met with Virl Tait, the Pastor of Grace Christian Church. We will be staying with him and his wife on Sunday night and will attend their evening service. Again the purpose has been sharing ministry, encouraging each other, talking about Samfya - it has been such a blessing!
Tomorrow we head to Polokwane and visit with Christ Seminary and Christ Baptist Church. There is the possibility of staff training from this Seminary plus the church is involved rural church ministry in Mozambique and there are some similarities with the work in Samfya - a good opportunity to learn from them.
Please keep praying - we trust our new passports will be available on Friday when we drive back down to Pretoria.
