“The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed, which a man took and sowed in his field; and this is smaller than all other seeds, but when it is full grown, it is larger than the garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and nest in its branches.” Matthew 13: 31-32 NASV
Debbie and I have come to understand that our actual spiritual impact upon others is not measured by the number who hear our voices, or who we touch with our hands, but by those who live (i.e. nest) with us in the shelter that develops as disciples separately act on God’s commands together. While taking measures like counting professions and baptisms may help, some, specifying within Discovery Groups the acts of obedience that each believer feels initiated of the Lord to do in response to His Word, then following up on the resulting good works they plan, yields much more. This is the kind of sharing that better tracks, for all who are involved, the Holy Spirit power that influences people who use Community Health Evangelism (CHE) and/or Disciple Making Movement (DMM) strategies. Believers become disciples who live to walk in Jesus’ steps (1 Peter 2:21; Charles Sheldon book) and begin to see mustard seed-like results.

Prayer and Praise
- A University village CHE effort where Romeo provides on-the-ground demonstration of CHE processes was to select those who visit homes or courtyards (i.e. CHEs) today. Pray for his wisdom as training begins in what is needed to integrate spiritual and physical health there.
- Three pastors using different CHE approaches
have accepted to prepare abstracts of what they could share at a Community Health Scientific Congress. Pray for wisdom to abound and be evident to others as Verlin assists them to prepare 500-word summaries for consideration.
- Praise the Lord that three adult Discovery Bible Studies (DBS) which either Verlin or Debbie began among FWB in Bondoukou have become six in the last month. (This number does not include the six of another church mentioned in She’s Alive or those I’ve STILL not visited to count with!)
Your partners in the Gospel – and wishing all ‘moms’ a Happy Mother’s Day,
Verlin and Debbie
