The 17 Bible Basics, Igbo version, sent through my Sister wife’s name got to her and has been claimed. Even before my arrival some Brethren and Sisters had taken some! We had no idea that such a version could be found in your stock. I thank Almighty God for this. You know that it is our duty to sow the seed, and it is God who gives the increase.

I have received the parcel of printed matter, which I appreciate. This came at a time badly needed because it coincided with the date we planned an outing to spread the glad tidings of the Kingdom of God and to tell the masses who we are and what we believe. As a newly opened ecclesia in this part of the town, our duty is to let people know us and to talk to them about the coming Kingdom of God on earth – not in heaven, as many believe. The leaflets in the parcel helped us much and the response is tremendous. I am appealing to you to help us more to achieve our goal of saving souls. I request that you send me Eureka and Key to Understanding the Scriptures. I like to read some of the books written by the older Brothers, but cannot get them because of financial constraints and they are not available here.

“Silver and gold have I none, but that which I have I shall give”; in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ let the blessings and favour of God locate you always. May He continue to hedge and protect you till Christ returns for your kindness. Please keep praying for us, for God’s guidance and protection, especially here in Kano and other troubled areas.

I am writing from my country home. I retired from the Government service and had to relocate from Calabar to Ogoja where I have been living in isolation for over a year now. Only one Brother (Bro. Michael Nyiam) comes to me from Calabar once in a long while. I am trying to get some converts, but it is fairly difficult because out here everyone already belongs to a conventional church. I am not relenting however. I compiled a list of libraries in 2001; were you able to accomplish the task of sending copies of Bible Basics to them? I need a lot of literature to read now that I am in isolation and idle. I need a lot of leaflets and pamphlets to give to the people I am preaching to. Please send them to me. I retired on 30th June, 2003, and up till the time of writing this letter the Government has not paid me a single penny in the name of my retirement benefits, so I have been living in abject poverty, not sure of what to eat. My children have been thrown out of schools because I cannot now afford to pay their school fees..

‘To be Right with God’ was a topic given at our Sunday class. “All have sinned and come short of the glory of God”, Sin is the result of man’s disobedience in Eden. We have been put right with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. He has brought us, by faith, to God’s grace in which we now live. This is why we boast of the hope we have of sharing in God’s glory. God has poured out His love into our hearts by means of His Word and the work of Jesus Christ who died for the sins of the world. There is no other means whereby man can be saved. Sin came into the world through one man, Adam, and his sin brought death. The hope of salvation came into the world through one man, Jesus Christ, all by God’s grace.

We thank our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ for our good health. The Amapulfe ecclesia are building a meeting place. We have cleared the area and are waiting for the job to start. We still need help in getting bags of cement and sand.
