of security in this life. That should encourage
us to listen to His message of salvation given
in the Bible.
Why is there so much suffering in the world?
Why are children born blind or deformed?
Jesus made it clear in John 9:1-3 that it was
not always as a result of personal sin but that
the works of God might be revealed in him.
The Bible teaches that suffering, in itself, is
not evil. It is the outworking of a much deeper
problem, it is the result of breaking of God’s
laws in Eden.

Although not a youth, I am hoping to attend
the Asaba Youth Conference as a helper and
always find it stimulating.
You mentioned an experiment at comparing
the cost of sending me 500 leaflets and getting
a price to see if it would be cheaper to get
them duplicated in Nigeria. There does not
seem a lot in it price wise as your postage is
so expensive. If they are individually photo
copied they work out more expensive.
I am very pleased that Bro Emma Ndukwe has
transferred from the Aba Ecclesia to join us at
Enugu.
MBAISE | Bro Blessing Nwigwe
It is with great sadness that we people of
Nigeria report the death of our
overseer/elder Brother Elijah M.K. Eze
who died after suffering from sickness years
past and he was buried in August 2016. He
will be greatly missed in Nigeria and all
over the world. He now sleeps in the hope
of the resurrection when Jesus comes and
awakes him from sleep, at his second
coming.
We are praying for you and your family,
pray for us also. May the Lord be with you
to work harder. God bless you all.
The Aklan Ecclesia, pictured above, meet
in a small house room or gardens. They
would like to build their own hall, but are
unable at the moment to afford a plot of
land to do so. They are a happy expanding
group, but not having a meeting place
tends to put people off joining them. They
are keen preachers and appreciative of
literature that is sent to them.

During the month of November we brought our
Sunday School to a close with an outing to
Heehaw Party farm. The youngsters enjoyed a
fun-filled day of play and each returned
sporting airbrush tattoos, sand-art kits and a
photograph to commemorate the day.
Our members put together a very varied talent
show in lieu of the traditional Sunday School
Concert – we had everything from biblical
skits, magic acts and animal encounters to
object lessons, solo singers and musicians
displaying their talents. This event was a
wonderful way for us to get to know each
other better, as many of us tend to keep our
interests and talents to ourselves during the
normal course of a Sunday.
