1999.
Dear saints: We thank the Lord for His blessings and goodness to us
on our recent trip to Ghana, West Africa. We spent two weeks in
Akumadan with the congregation there. The new chapel building has
been completed and minor repairs have been made to the mission
house.
There was a three-day local outreach meeting and visitors from the
town came to hear the gospel. It was the first meeting the saints
have had in years. Souls were saved and some were blessed with
physical healing. Attendance was such that toward the end of the
meeting we had to have separate services for the children and the
adults.
Time was spent in services, Bible studies, children's meetings and
informal discussion of the scriptures. A lesson taught on the
subject of Biblical Marriage had far-reaching effects on the lives
of the congregation. Many are taking steps to measure up to the
Bible standard in their marriages.
Due to the blessings of God and efforts of the native brethren,
there is a new work in Tanaso located about 15 miles from Akumadan.
We were impressed by their sincerity and hunger for the truth. They
are worshipping under a brush arbor constructed on a donated lot.
We thank each one for their prayers and support. As we freely
acknowledge that God is the same everywhere, we also know the Devil
is the same as well. There are spiritual battles being fought in
Ghana, and we thank God for every victory. Please pray for the work
in Ghana that the Lord would continue to encourage and bless His
people.
