We recently received this letter from the Browns in Moi land, Asia-Pacific. This ministry was started by several missionaries, including one of our former PPMMP students.

Dear Friends and Family,
\nExcitement is building as we prepare to teach about the final days of Jesus’ life on earth. \u00a0Most of the 100+ listeners have been paying close attention to the teaching about Jesus and can’t wait to hear about what he did in order to pay for their sins. \u00a0We praise the Lord for the tremendous work He has been doing among the Moi over the past 6 weeks. \u00a0Words can hardly describe all the miracles God is doing in order that His Son, Jesus, may have the preeminence in the hearts and lives of the Moi.
\n
\n<\/span>Through the past week and half of teaching they have fallen in love with Jesus and see that he is God’s promised Messiah spoken of by Moses and the prophets. \u00a0Not only is he perfect man, but He is God incarnate. \u00a0They have been amazed at Jesus’ power over sickness, blindness, demons, nature, and even death. \u00a0Yesterday we taught about Jesus raising Lazarus from the dead after he was in the tomb for four days. \u00a0Death is all too familiar for them and they know that after four days the body starts to stink. \u00a0When Jesus prayed to the Father and said, “Lazarus, come forth!”, he came out of the tomb fully alive. \u00a0We could hear them talking among themselves and one of the guys spoke up, “How long was he in the tomb?” \u00a0Rich said, “Four days.” \u00a0He then said, “Wow! \u00a0That is truly amazing. \u00a0Thank you, God.”<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The unbelievers aren’t the only ones growing in their faith. \u00a0As you know we have all been praying for food. \u00a0The gardens were supposed to have run out two weeks ago. \u00a0This evening Karen was visiting with one of her believing friends, Iyodogotabo. \u00a0During the last six weeks she has been hosting four or five ladies along with five kids, plus her own two. \u00a0She told Karen her prayer, “Lord, I want to feed these extra people staying with me. \u00a0I want them to hear your truth.” \u00a0She then said to Karen, “God has been providing! \u00a0There is not a lot, but every day there is food. \u00a0Every little sweet potato I dig up I thank Him for it.” \u00a0Her garden had very little to begin with and yet God keeps multiplying it. \u00a0The Moi listening to the teaching are amazed that there is food and believe that it’s only because of God. \u00a0He is showing Himself powerful on their behalf.<\/span><\/p>\n

About a month ago we posted an article <\/span>on o<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/span>ur blog<\/a><\/span><\/strong> about one of the guys following the teaching, Apabo. \u00a0It’s entitled “Softening Hard Heads”. \u00a0Just a few days ago Apabo shared with Rich that besides (taking the life of) one of his own wives, (he took the life of ) three other women accused of sorcery, along with one other man as compensation for a death; five in all. \u00a0Sitting in Rich’s office today, with his head hung and tears welling up in his eyes he told Rich, “Like I had explained to you before, I have much sin. \u00a0I know that I\u2019m going to go to hell because of it. \u00a0When I lay down to sleep or work in my garden it\u2019s all I can think about. \u00a0What can I do to be saved?\u201d \u00a0God is doing a tremendous work in Apabo. \u00a0We believe his sorrow will soon turn to joy. \u00a0Please pray.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

We are so proud of the eight Moi Bible teachers. \u00a0Their faith has been tested and they have proven themselves faithful. \u00a0Now together we wait for the harvest.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

There is so much more we could share, but we hope this gives you an idea that your prayers are being answered. \u00a0Thank you for standing with us and the Moi believers as we finish up this evangelistic Bible teaching. \u00a0We look forward to sharing some good news in the next few days.<\/span><\/p>\n

For His Glory,
\nRich and Karen
