Helena's House
Some photos of a house that we were able to help purchase through Mercy Ministry for a widow named Helena. Her husband died and she was left alone in Pemba with her 3 children and no nearby relatives. They were homeless and living on a neighbors porch before we were able to help.

Planting Time!
As the harvest season comes to an end in the northern hemisphere, here in Mozambique we are just finishing field preparations and praying for the Lord of the harvest to bring the first rains of the year so we can begin planting. He is so faithful to give us all that we need!
I had a wonderful time in Lesotho in September at the Farming God’s Way in-field mentoring. There were about sixty of us from many different countries, all with hearts to see poverty broken off the lives of the African people. The amazing truths from God’s Word, along with the agricultural techniques and management principles that I saw demonstrated are like keys in the hands of God’s servants to unlock the yokes of poverty and oppression in Mozambique and surrounding nations.
In October I began teaching FGW to the workers at our new farm in Metuge, where we hope to raise much food to feed the poor and orphans. I was also able to visit and teach those in our church in Mieze who have small farms of their own, and am currently teaching FGW at our Bible school here in Pemba to the 3rd and 4th year students. Every one is excited to implement the FGW practices on their own farms this year and to have the Lord bring them out of poverty and into his abundance. They are learning how to trust him and him alone for all they need and we look forward to hearing many testimonies of God’s miraculous provision!
Thank you for continuing to remember us in your prayers and through your generous support. Please pray for the Lord’s blessings to rest on us in all we do and for his continued provision for the least of these. Pray that the Lord will continue to add to our number those who have a heart to minister to the beautiful people of Mozambique. He is good and we trust him in all things!
