Prayer Requests

*Several acts of vandalism occurred at the church hall and Tlamelo this week. Please pray against hatred in these young hearts and pray for discipline in their families.

*Rizo asks for prayer for his niece who has been causing trouble in his family

*Please pray for the ministries of the church this week. All of the church programs are happening as normal, and we will be adding a Jr. Youth meeting on Saturday at 3 o’clock.

*Pray also for the leaders of the church, that they would not be discouraged and draw their strength from the Lord.

*Pray for Mma Moruti, who has been attending a workshop, and Champ, who has been attending a conference this week. Members of the church have been faithfully helping with the Tlamelo project and all of their responsibilities in their absence.

*Please pray for the youth food fundraiser this Saturday at the National Stadium. The youth will be braiing and raising money for the National Youth Conference in 3 weeks.

Notes from Gakuto

Moruti Mothusi has updated us on the great things that the Lord is doing at Gakuto Baptist Church. He is very encouraged that many youth have been responding to God’s call in their lives and have been interested in joining the church activities. He asks for prayer against the strongholds in Gakuto that may be blinding the youth from the grace of God.

This Week in the Fellowship…

As a congregation, we are experiencing God as our strength during times of weakness and trials. Despite vandalism and difficult circumstances, His love an kindnesses indeed never cease as He renews us from discouragement. Moruti Julian blessed us with the sermon Sunday and Tuesday’s prayer meeting was a refreshing time in the presence of the Lord. Brother Lame returned from Johannesburg and shared Isaiah 53 in a testimony about God motivating him to study the word. The outreach team of Bushie, Lame, Becky, Rizo, Thumo, and Champ (pictured bellow) have been prayer walking through Old Naledi, asking God to tear down strongholds. The youth are studying 1 Timothy 4 with Linkie this week. They are preparing for a fundraiser this weekend, selling food at the National Stadium to raise money for the youth rally in three weeks. Please pray that the remaining money will be provided as the church is unable to help with finances this year. We trust the Lord to provide!
