Thank you so much for your love, prayers, and support!
What a mighty God we serve! I was able to help in the school ministry this month, where we go to local schools for 5 weeks to give the Gospel to the students. We spend the first 3-4 weeks thoroughly explaining the Gospel. On the fourth week, we present the invitation to accept the Gospel. On the fifth week, we go back and confirm to make sure they understood that the only way to Heaven is by trusting in Jesus alone. Please pray for these students and teachers, as they are taught from a very young age that they must work their way to Heaven. When we presented the Gospel, 40 students raised their hands to receive Jesus as their only way to Heaven. Please pray for these students to have a full understanding of the Gospel and for those who will continue to go and minister at other schools.
While in Ghana, I was also able to learn how to make fufu, a traditional dish in Ghana, and had several people over to enjoy the food together. We fed 10 people for only GH₵100 (US$10). Wow! It was a privilege to be a blessing and feed these people, while they taught me more about their food and culture. Being able to learn how to buy, prepare, and eat their food was an exciting process! It also opened the door to fellowship with fellow believers and be a blessing to them. Thank you for being a part of that fellowship!
I also helped in the school while there, and it was such a blessing to get to know all of the teachers and students on an individual basis. While there, I tried to encourage the students to finish all of their work, and I would reward those who did finish with a drink or snack after school. Being able to be a blessing to these students blessed my heart, and it was the result of your giving that made this possible. Thank you! Often when I would go to help in a classroom, I would become the English and math helper. One of the joys of teaching is when students understand the concept they are struggling with, like a lightbulb turns on, and it all becomes clear. When I return to Ghana, I will continue to help in the school.
Thank you for all your prayers as John, Levi, and I made our journey back to the States. It was not without challenges along the way, but God protected and provided in miraculous ways. I plan to begin deputation at the beginning of January and have started scheduling meetings. If you are interested in having me at your church, please feel free to contact me with the information listed below. Watch my presentation video.
Thank you again for all of your love, prayers, and support!
Only by God’s grace,
