Yesterday two of our very good friends, Les Neely and Byron Roberts, arrived from America to come on a volunteer team together. Les and his family served here in Zambia and was a part of our team for several years before returning to the states. Byron has been coming as a volunteer for about the last 7 years. On several of his trips here he has been a part of the work along the river. In fact, he was on the first team that helped start the work in that area. This week they will hopefully help start a church that will complete the work needed in this area. Byron has worked with us and then he also worked with Les when he was here. Now, they are here once again as a team. The people are very excited that Les and Byron are coming to help them. They left this morning to head out to the area along the Lunsemfwa River to work until this Friday. They will be doing hut to hut evangelism and teaching during the days and will hold nightly crusades. Please pray the following for them this week:-that God would work in/through them for His Glory.
-that many would truly be born again this week.
-that those who are saved would be encouraged in their walk with God and challenged to work for Him.
-that God would protect them as they cross the river in canoes so that they can reach more people.
Yesterday was Les' birthday so we had a big choc. chip cookie waiting for him when he arrived at 10:00pm last night. It is never too late to eat a choc. chip cookie!
Happy Birthday Les!
This morning they had to get all packed up.
On the way........
