October 3
The gospel made new inroads as native ministry leaders encouraged church members to serve their neighbors by cleaning the homes of the elderly, moving furniture and helping with trash removal. Looking after children, the church members formed relationships with parents and invited them to church Christmas celebrations. Two neighbors have begun participating in church activities. Workers also taught about Christ to unsaved children at summer camps and reached college students at retreats. Donations of $60 are sought for such gospel work. Workers request prayer for a safe learning environment and teachable hearts at a new Bible class.
“And so, from the day we heard, we have not ceased to pray for you, asking that you may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding…” (Colossians 1:9)
