Mission Trip

It was my thoughts to go to India again this year, and I had been
saving towards that end, but the Lord has rested me from the trip
this year. I would like to return to India again, if the Lord
permits.
For perhaps two years I have been corresponding with a young man who
has a wife and two children; they live in Ghana, W. Africa. His name
is Jim Akwasi Kunadu, Yiadom. I believe he has received literature
from the Print Shop; I have also sent him literature on the true
Church of God. The man writes good letters; every letter has been on
spiritual things, and I surely' have done the best I know how to
instruct him in the truth. He wrote once that they didn't have a
Church of God in Ghana like I write about, but if one ever came to
Ghana, he would be a "premium member."
I wrote to him asking how one (even a woman like myself) would be
received in Ghana. (I preferred my brothers to go if a door would be
opened; I would even have helped with the ticket.) His answer was,
"If you want to come, we will be delighted; you are welcome in our
home." I understand Ghana is quite modern, much like the U. S.
With a real burden for souls there, I am planning to go. My flight
is scheduled for Jan. 9, 1983. It is now a matter of waiting for my
visa to Ghana. It could come through in 8 days, it could come at the
last minute, or I could be turned down. Surely God can close the
door if it is not His will for me to go. I have made all
preparations to go; it is all in His hands. I will have just two
weeks on this flight. If it would cost too much more to get the visa
extended for my flight home, I will have to settle for the two
weeks. I was able to talk with Bro. Lawrence personally about this
trip just a few days before he passed to be with the Lord. His
words, "May the Lord bless you if you make this trip," I shall not
forget.
I desire the prayers of the saints everywhere. I believe that God
wants to plant some righteous seeds in the hearts of precious
never-dying souls in Ghana. I desire that my self will be so lost in
God till His perfect will be done through me.
Yours for a harvest of souls,

Visa Received |
|
(Faith & Victory : January
1983) |

Okla.-Dear Bro. Flynn, workers at the Print Shop, and all the saints
scattered abroad: Seasons greetings to everyone in the blessed name
of Jesus. I'm so glad that He came into the world to save His people
from their sins.
Just a few lines to let everyone know that my visa to enter Ghana,
West Africa, came through quicker than everyone thought it would.
Unless something unforeseen should happen, I am scheduled to fly
from Oklahoma City, Jan., 9, 1983, at 2:15 p.m. I should arrive in
Accra, Ghana, Jan., 10, at 7:05 p.m. I want everyone to pray for me.
So far my missionary ventures have been among people I know, the
saints. For the first time I feel I am going "without the gate" in a
foreign land. There is a difference.
The door is open wide, and preparations have been made for my
coming. It is surely God's doings, and I count it a real privilege
to be an ambassador for Christ to these precious souls for whom
Christ died. If the Lord would have me to stay longer than the
planned two weeks, I know it will work out to that end.
Yours for a harvest of souls in Ghana,
-Sis. Dorothy Keiser |
