Children's Day

It is Children's Day in Mozambique!

I remember asking my parents when I was a child, why is there Father's Day and Mother's Day but not Children's Day?

Pray for us in producing fun-to-read books for children (and for adults)! You can imagine some of the hurdles involved in producing books in 4 different languages. We need your prayers!

Reading the New Bible

Praise God for the Bible in Lomwe!

It is amazing to read it aloud and people get quiet. They listen. Hearing the story of Hannah for the first time, in the early chapters of First Samuel, they are amazed.

A wife who has no births is in danger in this society. Her husband will leave her and look for a woman who can produce. No one will blame him. The wife will be shamed and abandoned.

What would a woman in this culture do? She would be strongly tempted to go to a witchdoctor and get a potion (for a price) to bless her womb with a baby. Or, failing that, to kill her rival.

But what did Hannah do? She poured out her heart to the Lord in prayer, trusting Him even in her pain.

Ask that the Lord blesses the teaching of His Word in Lomwe.

Ask Him to give faith and new lives, hope and trust and obedience, godly homes and wisely led churches.

Thank you for your support in prayer and in gifts!
