Outreach report
Thank you so much for your prayers for the Outreach in the villages of Duka Moja and Nakingombe. There was great unity and Spirit. It seems the favor of Jesus was on us, for which we were most grateful. Not sure of the total decisions made to follow Christ, but over 10. Both villages were new church plants and leadership was installed at each location. Mentoring and training is ongoing. Please be praying for evangelist John and family in Duka Moja and evangelist Martin and family in Nakingombe. They have a tall task ahead of them to grow the body of Christ in those locations. It will not be without hardship and trials, but Jesus has promised to be with them to the end. There were also many who were released from spiritual bondage. Please pray for the Spirit to continue the work in these locations.
Another outreach
We are hitting the road again to 2 more villages with the Outreach team and Jesus film. The villages are called Duka Moja, and Kingombe. We will be out there from this Monday (15th) until Sunday afternoon. Pray for power over darkness, the presence of the Holy Spirit, and unity among the team as we seek to share Christ. Ask the Lord to open many hearts this week and build His church in these villages.
Growth and provision
Pray for the body of believers – for spiritual growth and a heart to share the gospel.
Pray for families that are struggling economically – that the Lord will open doors for them for good jobs.
Youth programs
We are preparing for our Annual Youth camp in December. Pray for the final preparations of the content, pray for provision towards the budget, pray that the Lord will prepare the hearts of the youth we are focusing on.
Pray for transformation of the hearts of our youth as we continue with our other programs.
Vision of sharing
Pray for fruit that will last among the people we are sharing with.
Pray for the community of believers to get the vision of sharing with their own people and the courage and wisdom to do that.
Church outreach
This week, a group of 15 from our Tanzania church are heading to 2 villages for 7 days for Outreach with Jesus film etc. Please pray for the presence of the Holy Spirit and open hearts to receive the Word. We want to see Jesus lifted high and worshipped among the nations. Our scripture is PS 46:10-11. So far the first half of the Outreach 10 plus have prayed to receive Jesus as savior. PTL. A small local church has been established there in the village with an evangelist named Yohana. Do keep praying for Yohana.
Hearing the Gospel
Pray for more labourers to engage the small Islands off the Kenyan Coast that are unengaged and have no opportunity to hear the gospel.
Pray for open doors of sharing the gospel among the recently engaged Islands. Ask the Spirit to open many hearts to respond to the good news they are hearing.
Growth
Pray for the discipleship of the youth, that they would keep growing in their faith and walk with the Lord.
Pray also for the women disciples- for spiritual maturity and for growth of their businesses so they can provide for their families.
Outreaches
Be a great light
Grieving
Engage

Think about truth
Pray for Mama Latifa to be open to more conversations about Jesus and hope. For her to be bold in asking more questions and to think continually on the truth she’s heard.
Love your enemy
Pray for Bibi O. a neighborly grandma who has heard the Gospel several times. Recently, we had a conversation with her about what it means to love your neighbor and to love your enemy, to love those who do not return that friendship. In astonishment, she said it would be impossible to love a neighbor who didn’t return that love. The conversation turned to Jesus’ teachings about loving others and how we can’t love anyone without Christ working in us. Pray for Bibi O. that she would come to know Christ’s eternal and steadfast love, letting it change her hard heart and transform her into a daughter of the King!
Took her charm off
Pray for A., a young lady who works for some of the team. She recently agreed to read the Word together on a weekly basis. A. is also pregnant and per local customs was originally wearing a charm for protection over her and her baby, but last week she showed up to work with no charm, and when asked about it, she said she took it off- an incredible act! Pray that A. would continue to soften to the Gospel, that she would see Christ’s love for her and her need for redemption. Pray for her pregnancy and the baby’s health and that this would continue to bring opportunities to share the Gospel and display God’s power and grace!
Keep going
Praise the Lord for recent baptized believers – pray for their continued growth.
Pray for our discipleship program – that God will transform lives.
Pray for the women- for strength to overcome difficult situations and keep going in faith.
Pray for families- for protection against attacks from the evil one.
Consultation
AA Consultation will take place from 16th to 20th April. We expect 100 participants: 70 indigenous missionaries working amongst the Muslim UPGs of East Africa Swahili Coast and 30 believers from Muslim background. The theme will be the theology of suffering. It is unfortunate the biggest struggle is to get enough finances for this workshop. Pray that God will provide and that suffering will be understood and embraced from the light of scripture. I thank God we have young missionaries, fully committed to the field, very teachable and passionate about outreach. However, they are under-supported; this may be part of ordained suffering. Pray for them.
Consultation
We are planning a consultation meeting with MBBs and workers. Pray for all the logistics and provision needed to host and run this consultation. Pray it would be an encouragement to all who come.
Bold stand
Please pray for one of our local pastors. He has taken a bold stand against immorality in his congregation, and suspended some of the leadership. He needs lots of encouragement, and so do the few remaining believers.
Deep impact
Pray for our GAP program that started this week. This is a camp for recently graduated high schoolers. Pray that it will have a deep impact in the lives of the youth.
Impact
