A Different Translation Helped Her Understand God's Word Better.

On the 14th of June 2013, we had a visit from our ministry partner in Pretoria.

It is Mrs. Anna C. Kotze, married with Berry Kotze. When the ministry center in Pretoria had to close down early this year, they contacted us and told us that they would like to continue with the ministry. We took some of the ministry materials to their home, where they are working from . They are now a satellite office. They do the ministry on our behalf in Pretoria and are charging us nothing.

On Friday they came to fetch more ministry materials. Anna came with one of their ministry partners called Okkie. She told us how excited she is about the ministry material that we offer. As an Afrikaans woman working in an English community she found it difficult to understand the Bible in English. Then she read the New Living Translation Bible and now she understands the English Bible as she is telling us. Now she has more confidence in sharing God's word in English.



She said: "The Bible is alive to me now...I understand it. Thank you for this translation! The people are so hungry for God's Word that they asked us to please make sure we will receive Bibles by Sunday. We can not wait any longer for the Bibles, that is why we had to come today to get the material so that it can be ready for Sunday."

Please pray for this beautiful woman of God and her husband with their helpers. Anna is working especially with children and her husband with the youth and adults, though he is in a wheelchair. They are assisted by amazing loyal people.

Thank you Mr. and Mrs. Kotze for the work you are doing in Pretoria.
