Prayer Today!Galatians 6:2 (ESV)
2 rBear one another’s burdens, and sso fulfill tthe law of Christ. We just received word that Todd Vanderpool, Chairman of the Deeper Still Missions Board of Directors, has been admitted into the hospital. He will be having surgery tomorrow to remove a tumor or mass on his brain. We find this news alarming and would seek focused prayer from those who follow our ministry. The word for burdens in Galatians means weight. It could be compared to a boulder that is too large for any one person to carry. We find ourselves over 9,000 miles away from home and unable to get by his side and to share our love and care. Would you join us in lifting this weight to the throne of our Lord? We would appreciate your participation in this request. Cathy and Danny Sartin ____________________ t 1 John 4:21; See John 13:34 The Holy Bible: English Standard Version. (2016). (Ga 6:2).

Report From Africa #1 This is the view outside our cottage on the Roux farm. The moon rises above the mountains in the distance.
The vineyards will be growing and full in a month or so just like the photo from a year ago. At this moment the vines have been "cleaned" (pruned) and prepared for the growing season. Young shoots are already coming out of the branches. On the opposite side of our cottage are apricot trees in full bloom. Harvest will be coming after the flowers fall and develop new fruit. Workers are busy each day spraying and preparing the fields. We will come to know each row of plants from the fruit that it bears. So we come to expect a certain fruit from our life that is the result of Jesus and the Holy Spirit. The new buildings are up and there is a beehive of activity on the mountain above the Roux farm. The new Khanyisa Retreat center is sitting majestically on a hill that gives a stunning view of the valley. Just to walk around among the series of rooms, lodge and special homes is a treat. The fruit of that labor will be open for service in late November. Missionaries will be able to come and refresh, renew and refocus their walk with Christ on this special place. We have met several new volunteers from Germany and opened God's Word to ask profound questions of Jesus Christ. Who is Jesus? What do you expect of Jesus? Are you surprised by what Jesus does in your heart, mind and soul? Is there a gap between your knowledge of Jesus and your understanding of Him? Each day is a special opportunity for a new season in your life! Cathy and I are thrilled with our personal Bible Study and the new insights we get each day! Pray as there are challenges with a particular farmer who is making the access road to the facility a difficult issue. I know we plan . . . but God directs the steps.
