Dearly Beloved;

Season's Greetings in our Lord and Redeemer Jesus Christ's Name.

It is that time of the Year again. We are only few days away from Christmas!

To the Child of God this is a time to meditate and reflect on the birth of our  Lord Jesus Christ, as the prophet Zechariah said, "Blessed be the Lord God of Israel; for He has visited and redeemed his people and hath risen up a horn of salvation for us…." Lk. 68-69A

 

The Office of Grace Baptist Mission:

Sis. Amy Kiefer is not able to help with the secretarial work. So Mr. & Mrs. Joey and Karen Aikens of Elk-Dale Baptist Church have taken over. Be in prayer for the Aikens.

The Mission Address remains the same: Grace Baptist Mission - Ghana, P. O. Box 65, Clifford, PA. 18413. Tel. 570-222-9758 or 570-906-0836.

 

The First Container Has Arrived:

Praise the Lord - the first shipment arrived on the 22nd of November. Thanks for your prayers.

 

The School Building and the School Update:

Again we say THANKS to all those who help us raised the funds to ship the tiles for the school. Now that the shipment is in and the tiles are here we need about 100 bags of white cement to lay the tiles ($1500). We will need $5000 for electrical, plumbing and plastering.

Please let us know if you would like to help. We praise the Lord for Mr. & Mrs. Bowers from Calvary Baptist Church in Hummel’s Wharf, PA, who have volunteered to come for one month to help us lay the tiles. We must have all the materials available for when they get here.

The Bowers have postponed their coming to January 17th 2006 - this is the Lord’s doing, because we have not got all the materials for the tile laying. May be you will make this a Christmas gift for our students and the ministry here.

We also want to encourage you not to forget to send in the Coins cards for the blocks for the first floor.

The school is taking the Christmas break on the 16th of December and will be back on January 10th 2006.

 

Clinic Update:

We have still not find a Nurse or health worker for the clinic. Please continue to pray for this need.

We also need donations of medications like:

  1. Drugs; De-worming medicines, Cough Mixtures. Pain killers like, Aspirins, Tylenols, Ibuprofens, Multi-Vitamins, Tums etc.
  2. Lab equipment.
  3. Batteries and more Solar Panels to run refrigerator for the Clinic.

 

The Churches and Pastors:

We had four of the pastors from the Northern Ghana outreach for two weeks training - they are returning this week. We are now planning to go up north to baptize the new believers in the first week of January 2006. We have been able to do some engine work on our Dodge Van so we trust we can make the trip with it.

Be in prayer with us that the Lord will provide us with a newer vehicle for the Northern Ghana Ministry. The present Dodge is being kept by grace.

Continue to pray for the men in training to lead the churches. There are others to be trained, but we need $50 per month for a Village pastor. Praise the Lord for those who are helping in this area.

Continue to pray for the other men in Accra undergoing pastoral training. Others are studying by correspondence.

 

The Radio Ministry:

The Bible Baptist Church Choir presented a special Christmas program on the radio this Month. It was a real blessing too many - to God are the glory. We still need sponsorship for this ministry.

Donation:

We made a donation to a special school of physically challenged children in November. See the pictures below. Our culture sees them as outcasts but they are special to God.

Praise the Lord for His greatness. Pray with us for His guidance in the Years ahead of us.

May the Lord God Almighty continues to bless you all, co-workers in the ministry.

We wish you all a glorious Christmas and a blessed New Year!!!

Noah Quarshie& Family.
