Prayer Request for May Crusades

Because of the present situation of uncertainty in Zimbabwe, we have moved our crusades in May from Zimbabwe to Zambia. Most of our team-members are in place in Zambia, while two are still in Zimbabwe getting some necessary repairs done on our truck. The truck is expected to leave Zimbabwe as soon as all things are ready.

Our Director of Operations for Africa Pastor Nicholas Mavondo is in Australia where his wife Loreen is giving birth to their first child.

We are expecting the container with 20 tons of food (Donated by the Convoy of Hope) to reach our base in Harare in the next few weeks. Our distribution network is ready and standing by to take and distribute the food to the needy.

I leave for Taiwan tomorrow to minister there over the weekend. From there onwards to visit our team in Asia, with stops in Thailand and Singapore, then on to our crusades in Zambia. On my way home I shall stop and minister in Switzerland. Pastor Chris Foster of New Life AG in Lancaster, PA is coming to one of these two crusades in Zambia.

One of our crusades in Zambia is sponsored and paid for. A couple of my friends stepped in and took care of some additional expenses.

Please do pray for the following:
= Pastor Mavondo and Loreen and their new baby.
= For my team as they prepare the crusades. Janey Menzies is leading the team right now in pastor Mavondo’s absence.
= For the cost of the second crusade to be taken care of. We need $15,000 as soon as possible!
= For at least 200,000 souls for Jesus in these two crusades, and for the Lord to confirms His Gospel with signs following.
= For the distribution of 20 tons of food to be done efficiently.
= For Work Permits in Zimbabwe for Janey’s, Svetla’ and myself.
= For safe travel for myself and for safety for my family when I am gone.


Thank you for standing with us!

In Christ, your brother
