It was good to hear from you how things are doing on. However, due to the sickness of Sis. Cecilia things seem to be somewhat difficult in life, but the Lord will solve everything. I have to trust in the Lord, as what is hard to a man is not hard to the Lord, but we must trust in Him. The present events in the world really foretell the Master’s coming to judge the world and set up God’s Kingdom on the earth. With all my problems I ought to have time for the Lord’s work, which is the most important thing in our lives, so I need your prayers always, as I remember you all in my daily prayers to the Lord. The ecclesia here is keeping on; we meet every Sunday morning for Bible discussions before Breaking Bread, also the Sunday School children have their lessons.
Bro. Joseph Oppong
Sister Cecilia Oppong:
After a period of considerable pain, she fell asleep in Christ and will be laid to rest 2nd October (God willing). Our Sister was a succourer of many, the home was always open to everyone and although only a small flat, Bible Schools and fraternals were held there. She was an ardent Sunday School worker for over 40 years where she nurtured a number into the Truth. The photo below, taken back in the 1960s, shows her sitting in the front row with her first Sunday School. In spite of living a hard and difficult life she was extremely generous, giving, in faith, well beyond her means and always the Truth was her first priority. This is indeed a tremendous loss to Bro Joseph, his family and friends. We now all look forward to working together in the Kingdom to help bring all the world under God’s command. MH
