Happy late Easter! This past weekend my entire mind has been filled with thoughts about the significance of love. It’s so humbling, and up lifting thinking about the entire reason the son of God had to come on planet earth. Simply so you and I may live. Love died so that we might live to love. How awesome to know that regardless of the entire crazy and stressing situations around us, God in His abundant love desires us to rest in His love.
Ministry News
March was a month of impaction. We have just finished running youth camps with over 200 participants. God’s love and presence has been so real among the youth. Those without Jesus receiving Him for the first time, those with Him up lifted and encouraged to let him shine in their lives, and yet others making a commitment to take Christ beyond their communities as missionaries. We had 4 baptized last Sunday.
My best humbling part came from 2 different little girls aged 7. One emailed me at the beginning of this month thanking me for visiting her Church and sharing about Jesus. That it was then that she accepted Christ in her heart. And wanted to let me know that she has been praying for me every single day for the past 2 weeks. The second one is named Lilly. I met Lilly after sharing about missions. After the meeting, her dad called me aside and said his daughter had something to tell me. Looking straight into my eyes, Lilly said “Are you are from Africa?! I want to be a doctor, and go to Africa as a missionary!” Then her dad asked if I could pray for her. To which I responded, Glory to God!
How wonderful to know that from the mouths of babes God receives praise. How up lifting to know God never looks for ability in us rather availability. As He lets us see the love in His heart, we are being impacted by that love. And in return we become carriers of that same love to the lost and suffering world around us.
Prayer
Thank you so much dear friend for your continual support and prayers. I know this is all happening because of faithful friends who are standing with me to see God’s Kingdom come.
Please continue to pray
1. That my fellow workers in Christ and I will be equipped in every way to let the great love that God has bestowed towards us be raveled as we serve our generation. Taking that love to those who need Him most.
2. That we will walk in Wisdom and integrity in all things
3. For our safety and supply of our necessities.
May you be blessed and encouraged by the great love and peace in Christ Jesus throughout April. Always remembering; “Love is King!”
Much Love and Blessings
Donald
