I would like to offer up a couple of things for prayer. I ask, first off, that you pray for my team. Sickness has been extremely rampant amongst the leaders and participants of the Jbay team. We unfortunately have more than one kind of sickness going around. Measures are continually being put into action, to differ the spreading of germs. Satan has been using sickness to tear this team down. Those that are well enough to go to ministry, have a hard time making it through the day. Many have been forced to miss out on ministry entirely. Please pray that God will build anew the bodies of each leader and teammate.
My second request really ties into the first. This Friday, our entire team will be heading to Sommerset East (about three hours away from Jeffrey’s Bay) for a week and day long AIDS outreach called Beat the Drum. This is a huge project (based based on the Beat the Drum movie)! Months of time and sacrifices have gone into readying Sommerset East for this project. Our team will be there to dive right in, from AIDS education to evangelism. We will be living in the homes of the members of this community. Sommerset East is a community of warm, open people that are sadly so ignorant about AIDS and the love of Christ. I ask that you lift up Beat the Drum in many aspects. Please pray for the health and strength of our team, before we head out, and as we live in this community and minister around the clock for just over a week. Please pray against the lies and traps of Satan as he will attempt to tear down this project. Please pray for the people of Sommerset East, the farmers, the prisoners, the children, the business owners, the mothers, every inhabitant of this community. Please pray that each team member and every other team we are partnering with will be completely dependent on God and His truth.
Thank you for your prayers!
