Dearly Beloved;
The
Psalmist said, "O Give thanks unto the Lord, for he is good: for his
mercy endureth for ever. Let the redeemed of the Lord say so" Ps.107:1-2A.
We have started to started to see some great things that the Lord is going to do this year.
Easter 2008 and Baptism
This Easter we had our regular
service with the exception that the Sunday School kids gave us a special drama of the cruxifiction and
resurrection of our Lord. The service was followed by a fellowship dinner and a
baptizimal service - to God be the glory.
Mission Team From the US
Dr. Gainer led his Annual Mission Team of 17 this year. They arrived in the country
on the 26th of March. After visiting some of the historic sites in the country
they ministered to our people for two days.
On Friday the 28th
we recorded two messages each by Dr. Lavender and Dr. McFarland from Grace Baptist Church,
Kansas City, Mo, and Calvary Evangelical Baptist Church, Portmouth, Va.
respectively. Dr. Gainer, the pastors and some of the leaders were also
interviewed by a young radio presenter for our radio listeners. This was followed by a fellowship dinner organized by the
ladies of Bible Baptist Church.
On the 29th. we organized a Family Seminar Some of the
topics were, "The Church and it's pastor," by Dr. Lavender, "Making Biblical Choices," by Dr.
McFarland, and "Husband and wife Relations" by Rev Williams.
The seminar was followed by a Medical screening for the
brethren and neighbours. Over 100 people were checked within one hour. The
emphasis was on Blood Pressure and Diabetes. Most of the people had Blood
Pressure problems.
Most of them did not know they had blood pressure problems
including our Driver whose pressure was more than 180. Praise the Lord for
Moringa. Within two days our driver's pressure was within 140. Some of our
neighbours who had higher pressure came
for the Moringa Powder and within three days their pressure was normal. We
thank the Mission Team for coming to minster to our people and helping both
spiritually and physically. Our people were really blessed.
Brethren you do not know what this visit mean to our
people.
Radio Ministry
We do have a GREAT
GOD OF WONDERS. Our weekly Radio
programme is graduating to a full Radio Station. I know some of you are praying
with us and you are donating for this noble cause The young brother at the Radio station which airs our weekly programme built a 500
Watt Transmitter for us which was
tested from April 30th to May 8th.
I cannot explain
the exitement in our
neighbourhood. Personally it was like a DREAM to me. Will
you pray with us and for the funds we need for the antannea and the final
payment for the license.
The proposed name is "GLORY FM 107.7." Please, if you can help us with
the $1500 to complete the payment for the license and the antannea we can be on
air by June 30th or early July. Most of our Radio stations are political and the music is all worldly. Can
you imagine the blessing it will be forthe over 4 million people in Accra? Our God is able.
Our Schools
Please be in prayer for the High School, due to the
economic situation in the counrty the students are not able to pay their fees and some have stopped coming because they cannot pay their fees.
BIPS
The pastoral students are all trying but they are also
facing transportation difficulties. Personally I had to cut back my movement because of the
fuel price hike. We know you are also facing the same problem but ours is
getting out of hand. A gallon of gas is heading to $7. Food prices and
services have all gone up.
Trip to Northern Ghana
The rains have started
so we are planning to go and visit our brethren in Northern Ghana at the end of this month. Pray with us.
Moringa Project
The World Health Organization has just released a report
that said Malaria kills more than one
million people per year and that children are the major victims. Malaria kills five people daily.
Brethern, the Moringa we are preparing can take care of
most of the children who are our future leaders if the Lord should tarry.
God has given us this plant to help us fight many diseases and many are
testifying of what Moringa is doing in their lives. A young lady with breast
cancer is now recovering, people with
Low & High Blood Pressure, Diabetes,
Arthritis, Ulcers, Malaria, Fever, Inflamations, etc, are doing much better. One of the brethren here calls Moringa a "Champion Food Supplement", because it has all the vitamins and amino Acids
that the human body needs.
Will you help us to plant more of the Moringa Trees? We also need to drill a well to water the plants. $4000
will give us a well. Keep on praying and give what you can.
