Several years ago, God put into mine and Alicia’s hearts to
start a Bible study group Mentz where Meriam and Jankie live. Both worked at our house in the garden and in
the house. It has been a great blessing
to share God’s grace, mercy, and goodness in our lives and how God’s love is so
great that He sent His Son, Jesus, to be our Savior. What a joy to share the Truth with this Bible
study group.
We started using the Fundamentals of the Faith then went
into New Tribe’s Building on Firm Foundation.
It is a chronological teaching of the scripture.
Jankie has since found other employment so he has not
attended in years, but God continues to provide new people to the group. In 2015, a young man, Samuel Mokumo, has been
attending the group. This young man
finished matric in 2015 but was not happy with his grades so he has taken the
initiative to redo a year so he can score better. This young man enjoys God’s Word and will
often quote verses that pertain to the study we are talking about. I would love to see this young man attend Christ
Seminary here at Christ Baptist Church.
Samuel would be trained and could be a local pastor in Mentz.
This past Teusday, April 5, 2016, I had the joy of
continuing to teach how God fulfilled His promise to the Israelites as He
provided a way into the “promised land” of Canaan. I
personally love to read the account of Exodus and how God provides for His
chosen people even when it seems the times are tough, but also how God shows
His sovereignty. The Israelites as a
people group had to trust God and be obedient to His commands. Even though, a generation had to die before
they could enter promise land, Joshua and Caleb were two men who believed God,
trusted Him, and had faith in Him as a result they got to experience the
promise of entering Canaan.
Please continue to pray for this Bible study group and for
God to provide a man to come along the village of Mentz that will preach the
Word so that a revival can take place.
Here are some pics over the last 3 months in Mentz ...
