Dear Friends,

“Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.” 1 Cor. 15:58

The family health condition is getting better. Nicole had several medical tests done and it was revealed that she has an infection in her liver in addition to her back and knee pain. She has to have two more medical tests and one will be done in Lome, the capital that is 370 miles from Kara where we live. Nicole has had surgery twice, one 18 years ago and one 8 years ago. Our daughter, Deborah, has fainted twice while in class and we had to take her to the doctor. She will be on a prescription for six months. I am doing well but the pain in the throat is still there. All of us are taking prescriptions. We are thankful to the Lord for His wonderful grace and for your continued prayers on our behalf.

Nicole will be celebrating her 50th birthday on December 6th if the Lord permits. Please continue praying for our health condition and especially for her.

All the pastors and their families are doing well. I will be meeting with the pastors next month on the 17th to the 19th in the town of Sokode if the Lord permits.

Our school that started this academic year is doing great so far. The children and the teachers are doing well and though we had some injuries, they are all back to class. Two children and their sister started coming to our church because of the school. Please, pray with us for the school, the teachers, and especially for the salvation of those who are not saved.

We thank the Lord because several of our orphans are growing spiritually through this program we are having in the church. I would like to share with you about four of them. Please, pray for the salvation of the rest and for their relatives.

KARBA BIENVENUE

ADJA FELIX

12 years old  7th grade

TAROUGUE BLAISE

KOKA MAHEZINA

It is a great joy for us to see these children growing physically and in faith.

We are grateful to the Lord for some of these orphans being sponsored but we still need sponsors for few of them, too. You can call the office if the Lord puts it in your heart to sponsor one of these orphans.

What a big blessing and huge responsibility you folks are carrying through prayers and financial support to enable us to keep doing what we are doing for the Lord in this part of the world.

We hope and we are praying that those of you who never visited us and those who have visited us in the past may visit us any time the Lord lays it on your heart.

MAY THE BLESSINGS OF THE LORD CONTINUALLY BE UPON YOU ALL. WE LOVE YOU.

In the Service of the King of Kings,

Pastor Paul & Nicole ASSIGNON
