Dearly Beloved in Christ
Season’s greetings in our Redeemer and
soon coming king’s Name.
A Unique opportunity in
2004:
Dr. & Mrs. Gainer and Bro. Walker
Harris from the USA were here to help our people in income generation projects
such as baking, cold store facilities, etc. We were in the States' this past
summer to share with most of you what the Lord is doing, and your support was
very great. You donated materials and funds to make our work a little easier,
God bless you all.
The shipment got here in November and
even though most of the donations were exempt from custom duty the vehicle was
not. We ended up selling it to pay for the duty. But as the Word of God said
“All things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the
called according to His purpose” Rom 8:2 We still need a very good vehicle for
the ministry, a mini-bus that can seat between 10 to 12 people will be great but
it must NOT be older that 1995.
We praise the Lord for the fast growing
church planting ministry in northern Ghana, a total of seven churches in
2004.
The Mission Clinic:
We need a permanent Medical Officer for
the Clinic, be in prayer with us, even a short term Nurse will do, from two
weeks to one year etc.
We need various drugs and anything that
will help us to better serve these deprived people. We need Microscopes and
blood testing equipment. We thank the Lord for all those who gave us various
medical items during our trip to the USA this past summer.
The New Churches:
We went to Northern Ghana on November
29th. I met with the pastors to encourage them.
We visited both the old and new
churches, 12 people accepted the Lord as their Savior in a town called Chamba,
twenty eight miles east of Salaga and 6 people accepted the Lord in a village
called Beposo. The Beposo church which is Emmanuel Bible Baptist Church has Bro.
Timothy as leader. The Chamba church has no leader yet, but there are young men
there who want to be trained. We urgently need regular support for these men. At
least $50 a month will be fine. There is also a youth training center in Chamba
that a literacy organization want to turn over to us to help train the leaders
in northern Ghana. Be in prayer with us.
Motor Bikes and Bicycles are still
needed for the effective work in Northern Ghana. We brought few with
us.
Below are pictures of some of the old
and new churches.

Sec/Tech:
We now have 12 students in the Bible
school. The 2005 Annual New Year Pastoral School will be from February 3rd to
8th. We expect the number of participants to exceed that of 2004.
We are expecting some brethren from the
USA here towards the end of January and the first two weeks in February to help
with the pastoral school and our next trip to northern Ghana.
Please let us know if you want to be
part of these unique opportunities.
We now have 46 students in the high
school. We are expecting more students when school re-opens on January
10th 2005.
Be in prayer for the new principal Sr.
Harris, she is a real testimony.
The school received it first National
award under her leadership when the school was invited to a program organized by
the Ghana ministry of Education to promote discipline in the youth. Our school
was judged one of the most disciplined schools in Ghana. To God is the
Glory.
Building Project In
Progress:
We praise the Lord for the donations of
materials and funds for this very important project. May the Lord bless you for
the unique role you are playing in this project. Please pray and continue to
give whatever you can. Please, those of you with the coins cards, send them in.
They will help with blocks for the second floor when we complete the concrete
work. Little is much when God is in it.
The Radio ministry:
We are getting good feed back these days
from our listeners. Continue to pray for financial support for this ministry. We
also need blank cassette tapes.
Thank you all for your prayer and
financial support. May the love of our Lord Jesus Christ fill your heart and
home at Christmas time and the New Year.
GLORY TO GOD ON HIGH AND ON EARTH PEACE
AND GOOD WILL TO MEN!!!

P.S. NEED FOR MISSION SECRETARY/TREASURER.
Brethren we praise the Lord for the help
Mr. & Mrs. Holmes gave to us for the past two years.
They have informed us that they will be
moving to Virginia in March 2005. Sr. Holmes’ health will not allow her to
continue the Mission work.
We therefore need very Urgently a
Secretary/Treasurer, on a part-time basis.
Please let us know if you can help.
