God leads the way. . .


God moved powerfully during the recent trip Allen made to Inhambane, Mozambique. During his prayer walk through Inhambane, God led Allen to pray for a retired government administrator who was sick. Allen enjoyed getting to know the family and then told them that God had directed them to pray for the man's illness, i.e., a very swollen leg and foot. Two days later, Allen and Monwabisi returned to check on the man and found him walking without his cane and praising God for healing his leg and foot. He is looking forward to our next visit in April with Janelle and the Fuentes.

Please pray for this man as well as three other new contacts, that God can use them as the beginning of our house churches in Mozambique.

Scott, Allen, Bia, and Gustavo left for Zimbabwe today to meet with some of the church leaders from Zimbabwe and Zambia. They will spend the next three days praying, training, and studying together. We recieved word to night that they arrived safely in Bulawayo, but that there was no power. Inflation, by some accounts, is now running over 3000% and basic food stuffs are becoming more and more scare and unaffordable. There now seems to be very little light at the end of the tunnel. Pray for our churches and for all the entire Church in Zimbabwe that they will steadfastly look to Jesus and ask for His power to stand up under these difficult times. (Updates from Allen)

Please keep them in your prayers this week as they work with the leaders!

Blessings,

Lisa
