Dear Prayer Partners & Supporters,
Greetings in the precious Name of our Lord and Savior – Jesus Christ! We are fine and hope that you and yours are well in the Lord.
Our church family here in Macedonia continues to grow spiritually and numerically. We thank God that through our partnership with you, we are able to keep reaching the unreached and edifying the found. Glory to God for all our achievements as Together We are Reaching the World.
On August 27th, 2022, I crossed over to Uganda for a Mission trip. I indeed thank God for the success of that trip…I was able to preach in the conference on the theme, “I Can through Christ” from Phil. 4:13 from 12:00 to 5:00pm on Wednesday. On the 2nd and 3rd of September, we also had a successful leaders’ conference at Tabernacle Baptist Church at which Pastor Matthew Ferguson and Curtis Ferguson taught.
We are still working on the construction of the Macedonia Church building. By God’s grace, we have finished welding and putting up the steel bars for the roofing…which cost us $23,000. Right now, we are trusting God for $8000 for the tin roof to put it on the steel bars. This project has been great, and we really thank God that through our partnership with you, we have been able to see the construction move on since the beginning of August 2021. We indeed owe you our gratitude for standing in the gap through your unwavering prayers and financial support towards this construction…ye have well done (Phil.4:14) … and may the Lord continue to shower His blessing upon you.
We really appreciated your prayers this August as we were voting in our presidential election. Despite the election being disputed, peace continued to prevail in our country. We indeed thank God that peace is prevailing even after the Supreme Court ruling upholding the election of the president-elect.
Praises:
- We praise the Lord for the continued growth of our church both spiritually and numerically.
- We praise God for the construction progress of the Macedonia Church’s building.
- We praise the Lord for our partnering for the cause of Christ!
Prayer Requests:
- Pray for the provision of $8000 for the tin roof of our church building.
- Pray for peace to continue prevailing in our country even after the Supreme Court’s verdict.
- Pray for the Lord’s strength and wisdom as we continue to reach the lost for Christ.
May the Lord God continue to shower His blessing upon you as you labor within and without your Jerusalem!
