This Week in the Fellowship…

“If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land.” ~2 Chronicles 7:14

God has truly blessed the efforts of the outreach team in Gakuto. The service this Sunday grew to include many children and youth, and this congregation asks for prayer as a youth group will begin to meet this week!

Mma Rebekah taught the women’s fellowship this week from Psalm 46. She and Mma go Becky have been meditating on Psalm 18 together at the Tlamelo Project.

The youth group has been challenged through an exciting study of Jesus’ last words in the book of John. This week, Lame taught on John 13, washing the disciples’ feet. We believe that God has heard our prayers for unity, as we got to know each other more deeply in pairs, and washed each other’s feet. This theme has also been a major focus of the girl’s study of Ephesians each Friday night. This past week, we celebrated Masego’s birthday and discussed Godly marriages through Ephesians 5.

Please pray for a continual spirit of unity among the youth, especially as we begin to serve the Naledi community enter an anticipated time of preparing for the December camp.
