Today I spoke with one of our newest partners and he inspired me with stories from the mission field. I would like to share one with you about a seven year old girl who made a difference...and will continue to be the difference in the lives of countless people.
Earlier this year Freddie and his team of people went on a mission trip. This trip was about living the way the people in the village lives. They wanted to experience how winter is in other areas so that they can reach out more effectively to these specific people. When the group returned they shared their experience. This little girl aged 7 years old, listen carefully.
She decided that she was going to raise funds so that those people can each have their own Bible. She sold silk worms at school for R1.00 each. Soon she made more than R500.00 profit. Her father was so encouraged by his daughter that he matched her amount. This was even more amazing to the grandfather who matched that amount. When this story was shared with someone else, that man also matched the amount! Wow this is amazing! A seven year old girl made a great difference and became an inspiration to her family and me too...I am sure as you read this you are thinking of ways to raise funds to make God's Word available to others.
Today Freddie came to our office collecting 50 Sotho Bibles which they will use to minister on their next mission trip with more the 200 booklets. They are planning to reach out to one of the schools as well. He gave us a donation R2000.00...which was inspired by this little girl.

The Lesotho Mission Team is going global, ok maybe international. Freddie Du Preez.
I have often been asked why we do our mission work in Lesotho. Well simply put it is there where I believe God has called me. And by the way that work has grown, and His incredible provision, and the amazing people that we have been privileged to serve with, we cannot dispute Gods hand and leading in the work we do there.
Well now I believe God is leading me (us) to Niue Bethesda in the Karoo. We are going to be doing a Revival Mission Trip to the Karoo from the 4th to 6th of October. Again God has just opened doors, provided for and put people in place to make this happen. Yes we still need many people to assist in many ways.
...We are inviting anybody who would like to join us, to be part of what I believe is the inaugural trip to one of the Jewels of the Karoo. So if you would like to be part of, or need more information please feel free to contact me.
More importantly though we are asking for prayer support, for all who are part of the planning, part of the trip and for the people that we are ministering to.
Africa Jesus Africa!
