Three Discovery Studies with leaders of a local church will begin around town this Sunday afternoon and evening. They’re a result of our team’s three-week training at a local church. The three of us who will lead the new groups met three times this week to finalize plans for the study from Matthew on the Kingdom of God. Pray that the participants will be convicted of God to further develop their use of Discovery Studies at home to evangelize and mature believers in the faith while equipping themselves and others to likewise begin studies.
Two local pastors from different evangelical groups in Bondoukou made contact with our team this week for training. They want to begin…yesterday! Two upcoming Community Health Evangelism (CHE) trainings in Abidjan received many hours of attention from Verlin. He progressed in knowing whether two Western trainers can come to the university training in the fall, and he found two possible locations for a February training. Finding spaces to rent for week long meetings in Abidjan is not easy, and it is usually very expensive when considering the services provided (i.e. $200 per day for a non-AC room of 25 persons).
One 2018 CHE Internship Training got under way this week in Ghana (photo courtesy of our fellow CHSC missionaries in Ghana, the Tompkins). This special month-long training provides a “hands-on” opportunity for people in West Africa to hone their abilities in Community Health Evangelism. Two Ivorians are attending, as well as people from other nations. One more CHE training in Abidjan was added on Friday, bringing a total of three more national team led CHE trainings in the last weeks of February and the first week of March.
Prayer and Praise:
- Pray for the three Discovery Studies that will begin in different parts of town this Sunday afternoon and evening.
- Ask the Lord for a Spirit-filled month of training at the CHE Internship in Ghana, as well.
- Corbin successfully completed his January-term engineering class, and has begun his final semester of college. Pray for his good health, clear understanding, and endurance for these last months. Praise the Lord that his work situation has improved with the return of an experienced supervisor.
- The government mediator found the troublemaker in the village of Gimi who was stirring up others to cause problems in the agricultural project. A resolution is close. Keep praying!
