Drilling Deeper Still

Churches in Mpumalanga!

Our work among leaders in this Northern Province of South Africa has been very fruitful. The last two weeks of our time in this area is going to be very busy.

Last Sunday I preached in the Calvary Church in White River among Afrikaans people and many missionaries who are working in the area. Cathy has been attending their ladies Bible Study each week that we have been here. When she emerged on Tuesday I could tell something had happened. The ladies were hugging Cathy and thanking her for coming to this group that is studying soul care.

Yesterday I drove 2 1/2 hours South to the village of Elukwatini. Twenty-five pastors awaited a two-hour Bible Study session. This was our third meeting this month. Despite our language differences they were laughing, smiling and enjoying an honest walk through difficult scriptures. Our friendships started over four years ago and have deepenedeach time we have visited this remote area. Inductive Bible Study is a new concept to them and deeply valued with these poor pastors.

Today, Ronas Marule and I met with Pastors in Nelspruit (now named Mbombela) and I had the joy to open God's Word with them. Comments of affirmation, excitement and thankfulness followed after our time. Then Ronas and I were off to new High School in the community of Tekswane South East of Nelspruit. Observing another ministry designed to reach out and give dignity to girls as they grow up. Tonight, I am preaching at a church in the community as they are conducting a revival. Pictured above (kneeling) is Bishop Israel Malele who set up this time at Sello's church.

Saturday will be a day of training at a church in Moramela in the escarpment mountains. I will be teaching leadership and Bible skills to youth leaders and pastors. They wanted to go from 9 to 5 with the training. Ronas suggested a shorter time so the group would learn, apply and not forget.

The exciting part of Saturday is the location. Six years ago I was the featured speaker at a youth rally in Moramela. No church existed at that remote village. Today it is the largest church on the entire escarpment. I can't wait to see it again.

Sunday will find us three hours South speaking in Pastor Maxwell's church in Moraplass. It will be our first time to visit his congregation. He was my interpreter four years ago in Elukwatini.

Through missionaries Ronas Marule and Darryl Mather-Pike we find ourselves involved in the lives of so many pastors, churches and other missionaries. Life on life transformation changes us from the inside out.

Thank you for sending us area so we could pitch our tent and live among them. The fruit just seems to multiply.
