Ministry Update

Sorry I haven't updated in a while. I lost track of time, and forgot how long it's been since we've updated the blog! Apologies! We are doing good. The churches are doing great, going strong. We have been rotating among the three churches in Kaputa and are encouraged by their commitment. In Kabwe, Mrs. Chileshi has asked to be baptized and wants to join the church! The first woman to join there! Praise God for His answering of our prayers! We are excited and hope that she is able to influence the other women of Kabwe.

James and 4 church members are going to Katai tomorrow to teach, show the Jesus film, and have a church service there on Sunday morning. They'll be doing evangelism once they arrive tomorrow morning, then have a Bible study in the afternoon, show the Jesus film tomorrow night, and then have a church service on Sunday morning before coming back. *Pray with us, that they would be effective and an encouragement to those there.

The women are hard a work preparing the fields for the rainy season. *Please pray with us that they would continue to come to the women's Bible study on Wednesdays. We are slightly discouraged that they haven't been coming. We know they desire to hear God's word, but it's hard for them to come because they are busy.

Hutch and Lulie are doing great. It has rained here the last two nights, which is a surprise because the rains aren't supposed to come until the end of October! It has cooled things off a little, but the noise of the rain wakes them up at night! They have to get used to the sound of it! Otherwise, we are all great and are focusing strong on our last few months up here before a nice break!
