Hitting the Ground Running in Zambia
Dear Prayer Warriors, God has heard and answered in great ways your prayers for us thus far on our trip. Thank you for partnering with us in this vital ministry of intercession. Here is just a quick snap-shot of some of the ways in which He has worked during our first week of being in Zambia: 1. Safe Arrival - We connected with Mike Daily at Heathrow airport and by your prayers arrived safely in Lusaka the next day. 2. Resources Prayed-in - All boxes of Bibles, Bible study aids and Bible reference works arrived undamaged and passed safely through customs. During the unpacking of these items, a team from the Zambian Internal Investigations Department arrived. Mike Daily led the head of the team to Christ. 3. Witnessing Seminars - Mike taught with me on witnessing. Mike not only led three people to Christ, but by his example, attendees led two more to Christ the next two days. 4. Family Discipleship Seminars - As always, the Word of God is the foundation on which we lay all teaching and preaching. Attendance at the seminars has been steadily growing. Additionally, Mike led the brother of his host to Christ. Because of his changed life, this man's wife was willing to begin Bible study and marriage counseling. 5. El's Ministry - El has ministered the Word of God day and night while here both in break-out question and answer sessions as well as giving a special workshop for women on the spiritual development of their children. How I praise God for such a godly and caring wife! Now we are heading inland to Kitwa, deep in the heart of the Copper Belt where we will be giving an all day Family Discipleship Seminar and then ministering the gospel during the Sunday morning service. I close this blog as always with a deep and abiding thankfulness for your sacrificial and effectual prayers which empower and drive this ministry ever forward in the cause of Christ. By His mercy, II Corinthians 4:1 Rev. John S. Mahon Grace Community Int. – Lusaka, Zambia preparing to head into the Copper Belt to teach the holy, eternal, inerrant, written Word of God
