We start with two Trauma healing groups for men, one of leaders, one with community dwellers.. many are Islamic,  some are Muslim leaders.

In my feelings of inadequacy God is reminding me He has equipped me with everything I need and will supply more as I share the good news of God's love and how Jesus came to heal the brokenhearted.

Frances Message 4th September

By Michael Allsop | Sep 4, 2018 | Comments Off on Frances Message 4th September

Good morning..

Today I was led to 2 Corinth 10 vs 12-18...

 

God gives each one of us gifts and abilities to use for His plan and purpose. We cannot compare what we have been given with anyone else because we are all unique and different.  However we have all one thing in common God has given to us an assignment that fits in with His plan and purpose for us.  Our goal should be to fulfill that assignment with the gifts and abilities He has already placed in each one of us. We should not be afraid,  not feel in adequate but trust in what He has already supplied and as we step out and use it,  He will enlarge our capacity,  our gifts,  our abilities.

Frances Update 31st August

We praise God for a successful meeting with the leaders yesterday. We had 22 and most of them and their wife's and husbands have signed up for the Trauma Healing Groups. These will start next week so please pray for them.

The longer I am here the more I see the reality that education is essential in order to break out of the absolute poverty cycle. Please pray that God blesses our education project. We know several people who have started to pay their fees but I know they will need assistance to complete them. 2 are studying electronics, one a BA in biblical studies and education.
