FEBRUARY NEWSLETTER!
Hello Everyone! Benin, West Africa!!
Greetings from Benin, and a belated HAPPY NEW YEAR to everyone! It has been a little over 3 months that I have been here in here in Benin, West Africa, and we are continuing on here in the work the Lord has for this nation.
During my brief time here in Benin I have been becoming accustomed to the culture, language, and ministry here in AF Benin. I have been taking French lessons twice a week, continuing in biblical studies of the Word, and aiding and assisting senior missionary Magna James. The Lord has afforded me the opportunity to work with some young children at a Christian school during Christmas time, teaching them some songs and a dance for their Christmas program. We were also involved in aiding another Christmas program for many “neighborhood” kids. In addition, we have traveled to several churches and ministered in surrounding areas.
Now, in my next phase here in Benin, West Africa as a Missionary Apprentice I will be assisting in several office tasks and responsibilities. I will be developing my skills to be of a better overall asset to the ministry here in AF Benin. I will also be assisting in AF Youth Projects, helping to organize youth training programs, assist in recruiting short-termers when necessary here in Benin, teach English at the school for the children, and continuing to learn the French language and culture here in Benin! Whewww! YES, that’s a lot! Along, with continuing on in biblical studies, history of missions, and my primary focus which is to be of prayer support and help to Magna James in whatever way she sees fit. As I stated before there is much work to be done here in Benin, West Africa, and I am excited to be able to serve the people here in Benin!
I am excited about what the future holds here in Benin, West Africa! Also, I am learning so much and growing in the things of the Lord. The most important thing is character building and our relationship with the Lord. If our relationship with the Lord is not together then how can we then tell others about Him? My desire is to KNOW the LORD and every aspect of Him, and that everyone else comes to know who He is as well. I thank the Lord and I am very grateful to be chosen for this task; for many are called, but few are chosen. The Lord has also chosen you all as well, and I am so encouraged and blessed to have so many that are with me here in Benin, even if your physical bodies are in the USA! Your support and your prayers help continue to aid the work here in Benin. There is much work to be done, with minimal workers. But, the Lord is incredibly magnificent and faithfuI!
The vast majority of Benin has not been reached with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Many of the people here need to be encouraged and filled with the love of Christ that will expel all fear! Freedom has come to Benin, West Africa, Praise Jesus!!
The Foursquare gospel church in Benin has a vision to reach 10% of the people in Benin with the Gospel. Ambassadors Fellowship has been asked to partner with the denomination to reach that vision. Ambassadors Fellowship is in the process of developing a discipleship training center in Benin to train leaders and missionaries for the work of the kingdom. The work has already begun in Benin and we believe God will send more laborers.
I will be sure to update my joyncharity.blogspot.com, along with facebook! I love you all! I am praying for all of you as well! May the Lord thoroughly bless you for being a part of advancing His Kingdom to those who are lost in darkness. I will continue to update you all! Please review the prayer request below as some of them have not changed since my last newsletter.
BLESSINGS!
Additional Points of Prayer:
• Pray that laborers would harvest the field in Benin and nations where the Gospel has not been preached; missionaries all over the world.
• My heart is for the youth, children and women. Please pray for opened doors into the Lord’s will for ministry in those areas.
• Pray for Missionary Magna James, senior missionary here in Benin, West Africa.
• Pray for my physical and spiritual health as I am in a new spiritual and natural environment.
• Please pray against any hindrances and attacks of the enemy against me, my family, Ambassadors Fellowship and the ministry to Benin.
• The LORD’s WILL BE DONE…HIS KINGDOM TO COME HERE IN BENIN!
