New Beginnings
Middle East
Preston, and a team of two incredible women, have been on a trip for the past week setting more captives free. That sentence doesn’t do justice, though – this trip, just like each one, is so unique and monumental. Not only have over 30 new families been set free, but historical events have taken place.
One includes a meeting with all the local brick kiln owners – a time to build relationships and have productive conversations. Another was a meeting with the Women’s Chamber of Commerce, to discuss partnering together in setting families free – specifically Muslim families, that they might experience the love of God as well! Between all of this, our team has also been able to visit the local church, preach the Word, and encourage believers. Truly amazing things!
In all of this, we’re reminded of David’s words in Psalm 40 ––
1 I waited patiently for the Lord to help me,
and he turned to me and heard my cry.
2 He lifted me out of the pit of despair,
out of the mud and the mire.
He set my feet on solid ground
and steadied me as I walked along.
3 He has given me a new song to sing,
a hymn of praise to our God.
Many will see what he has done and be amazed.
They will put their trust in the Lord.
God is truly doing something special in this beautiful country. He is lifting people up out of their despair and setting them on solid ground – a future full of hope! And the masses are catching wind of it, witnessing the love of God and the amazing things that He has done. We believe that many more will come to faith in Christ because of this active display of God’s radical love and the love of his people.
Stay tuned for more updates from this trip as we wrap up in the next few days.
Africa
We have been so busy strengthening new believers and local churches, but now we feel it’s time, again, to reach the masses with Gospel – time for a crusade! We are so thrilled to announce that we are gearing up for a children’s crusade in Zambia on March 29. Children are so receptive to the love of God and His Word – they are full of passion and responsive to His Spirit (as you can see in the pictures below). Please be praying for the next generation, that they would grasp the love of God and be on fire for Him!
We’re looking forward to a great harvest and are excited to host more crusades in the coming months. May God’s Kingdom expand and His name be lifted high!
Thank you!
Thank you to all of you who continue to support and pray for Matthew 10 and all those involved! God is doing incredible things, and we’re ready for whatever He has in store! To God be the glory!
