Answered: Church meeting place in Congo!

Pastor Emile & the Speedyz

When I was up in Lumbumbashi Congo last month I was told that they had a place for bible school, but not for church. What can't you use the same school?.... "This is Congo"... because churches are all about money.. renters know that and jack up the price for church meetings... so the free bible school was fine.. but the church on Sundays, not.

I was a bit sad because that's the primary reason we go! CHURCH planting!!

So we prayed and what do you know... yesterday I get a call from Pastor Emile who says that the guy in charge was fired.. apparently taking too much money and pocketing it... so they have the place now, for church AND... for 1/3 of the price... $5/month!!!
God is good!

Our first Village outreach

The other day in prayer I was thinking of the majority in Zambia who live not in towns but in the village!

I prayed asking the Lord for an open door into the village areas of the Copperbelt. 

I had heard of Kalufwanyama, hours away from Kitwe, very undeveloped, massive population, a very bad road leads to this area, much of it has no power, and the co-ordinates according to Wikipedia... are unknown!

Then I had heard of Maposa, off of the Kitwe Ndola Road.

Some friends of mine used to work there before going back to the States.

I put it to some of my leaders and they all said... Maposa!

So we asked the Lord for an open door there.

That door has been opened!

2 Thursdays ago we sent 2 men to scout out the area.

Then this past Thursday 5 of us went to meet some men who were open to the word of God. 

It resulted in a bible study on Performance vs Faith, in a large open hut, some salvations, and a list of very open interested contacts who all want to be contacted for our next visit, I'm planing to go this month again.

Please continue to pray for Maposa!
