Rwanda Missions | 8-21 | Sunday Teaching

The Lord opened the door for Pastor Frank to teach on Sunday, and its the first in-person Church service they’ve had in quite some time…

The Lord brought a young lady named Belieze into Frank’s path.  She had been helping out the team.

Belieze told Frank that at dinner on Friday she prayed and received Jesus for the first time during one of the Gospel Necklace messages. (she is on the left),  Benitha is on the right.

She asked for a Gospel necklace so that she could tell others about the saving faith of Jesus Christ!  Our God is alive and at work in Rwanda!
 



Rwanda Missions | 8-19 | Update

From Pastor Frank:

Interesting traveling during these times. A surreal experience going through the airports and having to “show my papers;” literally; regarding negative tests and passenger locator documents, through our European connecting flight and Rwanda.

There is a curfew in place, that everyone has to be at home and off the roads at 8:00 pm.

 
Our teaching time starts today. We had a practice run of our presentation of salvation necklaces and a puppet show about growing as a child of God; with some of the street boys that come to the Hope For Children office for assistance. Six or seven boys prayed to receive JESUS, for the first time today. Please pray that the prayers were genuine and that the seed fell on good soil.

The boys did practice some verses they are being taught at Hope for Children.

 
John 3:16 & Luke 10:27
Please pray for upcoming teaching times with the children. Pray for open hearts. Sensitivity to the leading of the Holy Spirit.
Pray for the message that I will be giving on Sunday at the English service at 8:00 am Rwanda Time (August 22nd at 1:00 AM Chicago time)
 
Thank you for your prayers in this endeavor.

Updated Flight info:

The team has to once again be tested 72 hours before the return flight(s) to the States. Please pray that everyone’s tests return negative.
