We are doing fine ,by our Lord’s upholding , but very busy. We have had a bad month , with many deaths and many new admissions. We have people at our door every day asking for help as we become better known in the community , and we can only help so few. So a serious and ongoing prayer would be to ask the Lord how we are to proceed towards expanding the work in the face of this obvious need. Also we need capable and skilled hands and willing hearts to physically help bear the burden……mature believers who can counsel from God’s Word. In the near future we will need an on-site project manager skilled in administration , someone prepared to stay for quite an extended period of time.

Please pray for a young man , David , who is trying to turn his life around by God’s grace amidst real difficulties. He is very poor with only an elderly mom , and has gone back to school at age 22 to finish.

Please pray for a young girl , Thembi , who’s mother is with us at Nakekela and her baby brother died last week. She is effectively the head of the household , and it is too much for her. She is church going , but very overwhelmed right now and unable to see God’s hand. She has 4 other siblings to care for.

Please pray for Emma and Amos (she is the nursing sister working for us, and her husband is a local pastor) , they have adopted a toddler of a patient who died with us. He probably is also infected and will need much care in the future , this is a big commitment on their part.

Please pray for a refugee family from Rwanda , the lady is very ill and due to her illegal staus in our country , cannot get proper care medically. Her husband and little girl are also HIV infected and will need treatment in the near future. We are trying to help but have limited resources and capabilities at Nakekela. They live in a tiny little one room shanty with very poor prospects for the future.

Please pray for Jo , one of our garden workers who has a big tumor in his neck which will need surgery.

Please pray for our staff , that they all would grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord Jesus,,, and will totally abandon superstitions fro His sake.

Pray that we would retain our primary focus…i.e. the Gospel of our Lord for perishing sinners as the most wonderful reason to live and serve in the dust of Kwandebele.

Thank you so much

In service of our Lord and Saviour

Sonja
