Prayer letter from Navigator Gome

Dear Pastor and Praying Friends,

Greetings to you all in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ who made us brothers and sisters. Hopefully you are doing fine. Back here my family is doing fine. God have been so good to my family that He has blessed us with a baby girl, her name is Danielle.

It feels so good to write this report and let you know how the work of our Lord is progressing. I have been preaching at a new church which Bro John Fulford started in Thyolo district ( tea plantation area ) which is south of Blantyre city. The church is growing tremendously, people are getting saved almost every Sunday in church. For the last two months 25 people have been saved in church and on April 26, 2009 total of 37 people were baptized. Now our next baptism service 31 people will be baptized including the chief of the area. It was the Sunday of June 14, 2009 when this Chief came in front for salvation. The way how he was coming in front it was some how exciting. The chief was coming forward and then reverse, it took him some time to make up his whole mind he was some how shy but he took the courage and come in front. The people were very happy to see their chief making a public acceptance of the Lord.

God have been very good to this new church. In this district its just very difficult to find land for church building as a lot of land is planted with tea. But God made it possible for us to find the land we required for the church building worth $500. By the grace of God the land was purchased. Now we have moved from a place we were renting to a grass shed constructed at this purchased land.

On Friday 26 June 2009 we had a one day revival meeting, preaching and showing a Jesus film. Many people came to the meeting. The choir from Good Samaritan Orphanage was singing and people were so blessed with their songs. Brother John Fulford supposed to preach on this day but unfortunately he had to go to Traffic Department to get his car inspected as the documents were expired. We could not cancel the meeting, so I did the preaching. After the preaching 113 people came forward for salvation and our team helped them. And from 6 pm its when we had Jesus film movie that was for two hours, many many people raised their hands and prayed sinners prayer. There are all the signs that the church will grow big both spiritually and in numbers.

Thank you very much for your prayers and financial support. Pray again that the money for the church building with metal roof will be raised. Once again thank you very much for all your support, MAY GOD BLESS YOU.

Yours,

Navigator.
