Hi praying friends, Just a quick update to say that Nya and Noah are doing well; Nya has had no repeats of her fit, praise the Lord and Noah’s sores are healing up well. Thanks so much for your prayers. Simon is sick just now with bad sinus headaches and bone pain, hopefully this comes […]

Hi praying friends, Language learning Annika and I are four weeks into language study! Annika is trying to do up to 4 hrs of language per day as well as take care of the kids and the responsibilities of the house. Pray for her this is a huge task but our believing ladies need discipleship […]

Hi friends, We had a scare last night. At about 22:30 Nya cried out in her sleep we went and got her but we couldn’t waken her for about a minute. This hasn’t happened before; when she opened her eyes she then didn’t have good control of her neck to steady her head and her […]

Hi Friends, It’s with great joy that we can tell you that the first Mengen Baptism has taken place this past Sunday. We found a beautiful spot at the river and 17 of our 40 new believers were baptized! This was a big step for them to stand in defiance in the midst of a […]

Hi, Please pray for Nya and Noah. Nying is running a high fever and Noah a slightly lower one (perhaps to do with his teeth) today it is getting higher. It is either a viral illness or in Nya’s case perhaps malaria. If she still has the high temp again tomorrow we will take her […]

Hi friends, We wanted to give you some necessary administration info regarding our work with the Mengen People group. When a missionary starts to build a house in the tribe NTM allocates a specific account for this. In short they do this so we can gain less charges on any money donated by churches or […]
