We have been receiving encouraging reports from the French team
(Louis-Michel Fillatre, Marius Verne, Louis-Bernard Bouzerand and his daughter, Pauline)
that is presently ministering in the Caribbean island of Martinique. We thank God for His
working. Let us pray for the team as they round off and fly back home.
Our prayers are with Peter Wenger and his son Philemon who
left Switzerland on Wednesday for Poland and the Czech Republic. They are on a
10-day ministering visit.
My thoughts were also with Hans Koller and the brethren in Romania
this past weekend. Maria Besenszky had requested prayers for the youth conference at
Voiteg. May God do a lasting work in the hearts of young people.
Yesterday was a special day at KwaSizabantu. It was with thankful
hearts that we glanced back and once again marvelled at what God has done
since 14 June 2008. That day we had to watch from outside as the fire razed our auditorium
to the ground. In less than a year we witnessed the miracle of restoration of God's house
- more beautiful than before. Our joy knew no bounds.
Mthetho Simelane and Gabisile Buthelezi had the privilege of being
the first couple to get married in the new auditorium yesterday. Again, we wish them God's
blessing.
June 16 is Youth Day in South Africa. There will be many events
throughout the country to mark the day
Bongani Gina requests prayers for the youth meeting
that he has organised for tomorrow in Enseleni, Richards Bay. He has invited Doctors for
Life, True Love Waits, TNT and Radio Khwezi to address the youth. The local political
leadership is also expected to attend.
Land Of Eternal Spring
The former president of Columbia Bible College in South Carolina, J. Robertson
McQuilkin, pointed out that God has a wise purpose in letting us grow old and weak:
“I think God has planned the strength and beauty of youth to be physical. But the
strength and beauty of age is spiritual. We gradually lose the strength and beauty that is
temporary so we’ll be sure to concentrate on the strength and beauty which is
forever. And so we’ll be eager to leave the temporary, deteriorating part of us and
be truly homesick for our eternal home. If we stayed young and strong and beautiful, we
might never want to leave.”
