\u201cTHANK YOU FOR GIVING TO THE COVID19 INTERNATIONAL RELIEF FUND\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

These words are echoing from Africa! Here in Malawi, I represented God\u2019s hand to present your seed in relief packets to the most vulnerable groups in Blantyre, Malawi.<\/p>\n

On arrival in Malawi, I was burdened with the crisis of seeing the street kids in Blantyre, Malawi, as well as the awareness of the orphan count growing through the report of the pastor\u2019s fraternal in the Ndirande community. This community is part of a slum type of community within the largest city in Blantyre, with 50% of the population (19,000,000+) living in the Blantyre district. Through prayer, God sent children\u2019s workers ten years ago, who are now heading up NGO and addressing these needs. As friends, we are standing together to make a difference in the lives of special needs, street, and orphan kids. Working through the two NGO groups, we have been able to unite and assist these kids, reaching 31 families through caring for their special needs kids. We were also able to reach one family, who cares for 70 kids taken off the street, with relief packets in May, June, and July. Distribution to use for August is due this week, and we stand in faith together to assist them for another two months.<\/p>\n

\"Families,<\/a><\/p>\n

We also provided a relief packet to both of their neighbors (82 families) to show kindness and reach out to them, adding spiritual growing resources to strengthen their faith and trust in God\u2019s protection and provision. These groups are now developed as discipleship groups and are praying together and studying God\u2019s Word weekly. Continue to pray for these groups to grow spiritually and for the resources to flow in and equip them to minister confidently, through the Holy Spirit, reaching out to others in their area.<\/p>\n

The relief packets have basic contents to feed a family of four for four weeks at the cost of $7.50 per person, per month. This amount is unimaginable here, but so desperately needed for survival and for making a difference in this community. Should you be able to assist in continued giving, use the following link: https:\/\/give.iphc.org\/project\/covid19-international-relief-fund<\/a>, or send a check earmarked with project number: 09149NCOVID<\/p>\n

THANK YOU, WMM FOR EQUIPPING MISSIONARIES AS STRATEGY COORDINATORS FOR THE END TIME HARVEST<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dr. Terry Tramel coordinated the presentation of the Great Commission Equipping Conference Training by Rev. Jim Eby to be presented through video sessions and Zoom discussion classes. Through this training, the strategies to reach, disciple, adopt, and pray for unreached people groups and how to manage new groups\/church plants were presented. A discipleship manual is also a part of the training and is a valuable resource. This training was presented to national leaders on continents, and it is a key step to bring our church on track in unity, focusing as a task force to reach the ends of the earth. Pray for wisdom and creative opportunities to open up for each one carrying the gospel to share.<\/p>\n

\"ZOOM<\/a><\/p>\n

BE IN PRAYER FOR PROTECTION AS CHILDREN\u2019S MINISTRY TRAININGS HAVE RE-OPENED<\/strong><\/p>\n

National Children\u2019s Ministry leaders need development and training. Training sessions were rescheduled in Mauritius, Malawi, and the south for the first week in August and the first week in September in the north. In Malawi, the booklet \u201cGuidelines for Effective Children\u2019s Ministry\u201d was translated in Chichewa, and 300 booklets were printed for those in leadership to be able to have information at hand in their own language. Pray as churches focus on reaching out to kids in the community, and as the children\u2019s ministry grows. Pray for strategic leaders to be filled with passion and creativity.<\/p>\n

\"Booklets<\/a><\/p>\n

BE IN PRAYER FOR THE KIDS OF THE WORLD<\/strong><\/p>\n

Kids are facing unprepared challenges, indeed, in 2020. Let\u2019s lift them up and pray for their salvation and comfort worldwide. Pray that parents and caregivers will have wisdom and great insight into God\u2019s plan to communicate clearly with kids and youth. Declare that they will arise, hear God\u2019s voice, receive the outpouring of His Spirit, and lift their voices to bring Him glory.<\/p>\n

Thank you, supporters, for helping with resources through your contributions to the accounts: Child Evangelism Africa #10004P and Bibles for Southern Africa #11643P. These resources help develop and equip the children\u2019s workers in Southern Africa. The goal is to equip every leader directing and coordinating the ministry work and the developing teaching teams with the resources they need. Working with 16 countries, we will need six of the Resource Bibles for each country this year. One Resource Bible per country is in the office to help with more Bibles for preschoolers, kids, leaders, and workers. Currently, gospel and prayer tools are being developed to give the workers a kick-off package to use for reaching out in their area, the 4\/14 window \u2013 unreached people groups \u2013 THE CHILDREN WORLDWIDE who are 14 years and under. Keep this work in your prayers.<\/p>\n

I am in prayer for your protection, and grateful for your faithful support,<\/p>\n

Saludos fieles seguidores, <\/h2>

\u00a1Diciembre es una \u00e9poca de celebraci\u00f3n de por qu\u00e9 naci\u00f3 Cristo! Les deseo a ustedes y a sus familias una temporada bendecida de celebraciones. Que su unidad en la fe aumente y se fortalezca al expresar nuestro agradecimiento por la vida de Cristo, demostrando el amor de Dios por nosotros. Naci\u00f3 el salvador del mundo, y mientras se cuenta esta historia, recemos juntos para que, en esta temporada, muchos m\u00e1s lleguen a la salvaci\u00f3n. <\/p>

<\/p>

En el Hospital Ortop\u00e9dico Infantil Cure en Blantyre-Malawi, los ni\u00f1os escucharon una lecci\u00f3n sobre el tema, "Cristo naci\u00f3 para salvarme" de Mateo 1: 18-24. Antes de dejar a los ni\u00f1os, cada uno recibi\u00f3 una Biblia para ni\u00f1os en su propio idioma, el chichewa. Oren mientras estos ni\u00f1os llevan las buenas noticias a su pueblo. Ore para que los lectores de la Biblia den un paso al frente y lean las historias de la Biblia a la aldea. Gracias por todos los que dan al programa, Biblias para \u00c1frica del Sur, cuenta WMM 11643P. Hiciste esto posible. El 25 de diciembre, los ni\u00f1os de la calle en Blantyre en Stekahouse recibir\u00e1n un desayuno con una lecci\u00f3n y tambi\u00e9n recibir\u00e1n Biblias. <\/p>

<\/p>

Diciembre es un buen mes para unir a los j\u00f3venes. El reverendo Joe Delport, director regional para \u00c1frica del Sur, plane\u00f3 con el equipo de The Awakening hacer exactamente eso. De ocho naciones, los j\u00f3venes se reunieron en Zambia con los l\u00edderes nacionales de sus pa\u00edses. El objetivo era buscar a Dios, ser empoderado por Dios, para que sus planes nacieran con una estrategia de pasi\u00f3n que se abrazara para el trabajo de la Gran Comisi\u00f3n, y para que los j\u00f3venes se alzaran listos para la responsabilidad y el liderazgo. <\/p>

<\/p>

Max Barroso trajo una palabra de 1 Reyes 18, ayudando a todos a entender que cada persona cristiana es la respuesta, ya que las naciones est\u00e1n en una sequ\u00eda espiritual. Dios quiere hacer algo a trav\u00e9s de sus vasos. Necesitamos restaurar el altar y entregarnos como una bebida, devolviendo todos nuestros corazones a \u00c9l. Un gran avance es la promesa. Al principio podemos ver solo una peque\u00f1a nube del tama\u00f1o de un pu\u00f1o, pero realmente, deber\u00edamos ver una inundaci\u00f3n como Elijah que se desatar\u00e1. \u00a1Dios est\u00e1 listo para construir a su pueblo como una virgen de Israel para dar a luz a lo que le dar\u00e1 gloria a Dios! Alegr\u00e9monos mientras Dios trabaja en su pueblo para la preparaci\u00f3n de esta temporada espiritual para inundar la tierra con su gloria. <\/p>

<\/p>

Los l\u00edderes de cada naci\u00f3n para el IPHC son claves fundamentales que ayudan a las iglesias a desarrollar ministerios efectivos para los ni\u00f1os con programas para involucrar a los ni\u00f1os en actividades de divulgaci\u00f3n, misiones y oraciones por grupos de personas no alcanzadas. El reverendo Joe Delport est\u00e1 ayudando a llevar estos folletos a los l\u00edderes para que adopten los ministerios de desarrollo de estrategias y fruct\u00edferos para los ni\u00f1os. Tambi\u00e9n ser\u00e1n dirigidos al siguiente sitio web para obtener recursos: WWW.WAKNET.COM. Ore, ya que el enfoque de los l\u00edderes el pr\u00f3ximo a\u00f1o estar\u00e1 en que cada naci\u00f3n desarrolle un plan de desarrollo del ministerio de ni\u00f1os. Con este plan, los l\u00edderes y trabajadores espec\u00edficos ser\u00e1n entrenados para alcanzar, ense\u00f1ar y movilizar a los ni\u00f1os para convertirse en una fuerza de trabajo y un poderoso ej\u00e9rcito de guerreros de oraci\u00f3n. <\/p>

<\/p>

Pasar\u00e9 esta Navidad en Malawi, \u00c1frica Central, donde estoy radicado por ahora. Luego me preparar\u00e9 para mi vuelo de Malawi a Mauricio. Pasar\u00e9 tiempo en Mauricio durante parte de enero y febrero de 2020 para trabajar con estudiantes que fueron capacitados durante septiembre de 2019. Luego, en la ciudad capital, un grupo de iglesias reci\u00e9n establecido quiere estar equipado para llegar a los ni\u00f1os de la comunidad. Este ser\u00e1 el momento adecuado para comenzar a escribir la doctrina b\u00edblica de los ni\u00f1os, y ver c\u00f3mo los ni\u00f1os responden a la lectura y el uso del recurso para construir verdades b\u00edblicas fuertes y desarrollar un sistema de creencias que los proteja contra la falsa doctrina. <\/p>

Que este a\u00f1o sea una gran temporada de cosecha. Que Dios nos use como un equipo de la Gran Comisi\u00f3n para alcanzar sus metas. Mantengo mi coraz\u00f3n centrado en Su voluntad (Mateo 18:14), porque no es la voluntad de nuestro padre celestial que ninguno de estos peque\u00f1os se pierda. <\/p>

Peticiones de oraci\u00f3n: <\/h2>

\u2022 Agradezca a Dios por los j\u00f3venes del sur de \u00c1frica que asistieron a la conferencia The Awakening para surgir y guiar apasionadamente a sus grupos a desarrollar iglesias relevantes en sus comunidades, llegando a j\u00f3venes y ni\u00f1os mientras crecen como l\u00edderes estrat\u00e9gicos. <\/p>

\u2022 Ore por el trabajo en Mauricio, y que Dios abra las mentes y los corazones para llegar a los ni\u00f1os de la comunidad en Port Lois, la capital. <\/p>

\u2022 Ore para que los plantadores de iglesias se levanten y planten m\u00e1s iglesias en Mauricio. <\/p>

\u2022 Ore por los l\u00edderes nacionales, quienes compartir\u00e1n informaci\u00f3n que har\u00e1 crecer l\u00edderes apasionados del ministerio en iglesias y crecer\u00e1n las iglesias con un enfoque en las misiones. <\/p>

Bendiciones de la temporada,<\/strong><\/em> <\/p>
