February Ministry Pics

Here are pics from the ministry sides of our life here in Kadiolo.

New Literacy ministry for women. Here are a couple of our church ladies after their second class in learning how to read. We're excited about how this ministry has taken off. We're even more excited about the possibilities next year as we will be able to conduct bible studies with them.
Pray for these ladies as they struggle to learn to read and write.



Study Room. This ministry continues to serve as a bridge for us to contact students. Here are a couple of them. The guy on the right accepted Christ a week ago. He prayed with one of the church leaders who is also involved at the study room with us.
Please continue to pray for us as we are building relationships with students. Pray that those opportune times would arise to share Christ with them, and they would have ears to hear....




Local Church. We are pleased with the local church we are working with. It is a joy to serve with brothers and sisters in Christ, especially Pasteur Youssouf. Today something special happened. The sermon was about putting away your idols. Someone came to Pasteur after church, and brought his fetishes. (Witchcraft
materials.) So Pasteur called the believers together, and together we declared that Jesus crushed Satan on the cross, and burnt these materials. It was a special time of praise to Christ for the power and liberty He gives us.
Continue to pray that God would call Africans to Himself, that He would be able to free them from this bondage of witchcraft..




Local relationships. Friends are an important area of ministry. Some friendships are redemptive relationships that enable us to share Christ with someone. Some friendships are with believers from church. These allow us to encourage and to be encouraged. Freddy and Miriam are two such good friends.
We thank God that we are not here in Kadiolo alone, but that He as placed us to work with the local church and believers to advance His kingdom here....
Pray for the local believers as they endeavor to share Christ as well with their friends, co-workers, and neighbors. They are a joy to us as we serve here with them.



God Bless,
Tom.
