news from mozambique

I am very happy to be a part of the worldwide community. I am thankful to our heavenly Father for giving me brethren and sisters for fellowship. One thing I have found which is rare in other Christian organisations and found within the Christadelphians is the willingness to read the Bible and pass the good news of the true bible message to others. We are a unique community.

Thank you very much for the Gospel News - keep up the good work you are doing. I enjoy reading it.

Since I returned from Mozambique 3 weeks ago I haven’t been feeling well. And even though I wasn’t feeling well on 10 June, I forced myself to go to Tanganda where most of our Ecclesia members meet for the breaking of bread. We also had an opportunity of breaking bread with Mutare Ecclesia. There we met several brothers including Bro Gilbert Tevere who was the founder of Rimbi Ecclesia. I was very encouraged by the commitment which my friend Bro Joshua Pakali gave to the Lord: He spent the whole night travelling from BeitBridge to Tanganda and the whole day on the word of God. I arrived there in the afternoon and he joined me in the interviews, but I could not finish the last interview. So Bro Joshua was helped by Bro Livison to carry on. I was supposed to give an exhortation that Sunday but due to my poor health, I could not. Joshua did it for me. The day had been a great day for us all, including witnessing 2 baptisms. I went to the doctor and he gave me an antibiotic for pneumonia.

Further report

We rejoice in the baptism on August 6th of Chequimo Matiasse of Mossurize District (Espungabera) Mozambique. The baptism was witnessed by brothers and students from Mozambique as well as Bro. Steven and Sis. Ruth Moore from U.K. who were on a Bible Mission tour. There are other Bible students who have already completed the course and they need to be interviewed for baptism but cannot come to Zimbabwe for different reasons. God continues to open the door of faith to the Gentiles in that part of the world hence about 25 people are on the correspondence course and are living distances apart so travelling by foot is becoming difficult for me so I had to give them my personal bicycle so that we can use it for preaching. Again I am alone to cope with the number of students is now difficult and I have sent Evelyn to Harare to renew her visa so that she can accompany me. There is a very big difference in the sense that in that part of very big difference in the sense that in that part of that country you need to visit every student at his or her place to collect the lessons for marking and sometimes you arrive and are told that he/she is away so you have to come back again and it may be 15 to 20 km. If there are two of us this will help as one will be marking the lesson and another one will talk to the student.
