It is amazing how God provides new
possibilities at just the right time. We have been working on the building of
the Ministry Centre since the beginning of the school year and we are just
about to the point where the ceiling for the first floor will be finished. I was told this week that we may have to put
the construction on hold for a little while as the funds have not yet arrived
to finish the building ($70,000 of the estimated $170,000 has come in). It has
been interesting to hear our kids when we do our family devotions in the
morning pray about the construction with conviction and faith. I think that in
many ways God honours that kind of faith and I am interested in seeing how He
will continue to provide in this situation.
But I suppose that this is a bit of a tangent from what I started
talking about. The possibilities that I
started talking about come in the form of people. In the last little while we
have had two young men coming to our church in Kwara Taji that actually live in
the neighbourhood of the Ministry Centre. (Theses are a neighbourhood or two
apart). Then a couple of weeks ago I had a call from a missionary friend that
asked if we had anything started on our new site as she had two friends that
live in the area that were new believers that she wanted to connect to a
church. We had these ladies come the church in Kwara Taji last week but our
prayer is that God is building a core group that will be willing to go and
start a new work in our Ministry Centre. Hopefully with the ceiling being
completed soon we will be able to start a morning prayer meeting on the site.
Please pray that God will raise up the right
group of people to start another FM church at this site and pray that the
finances will come in so that we can finish the building process and move back
to the neighbourhood
