SOMETHING NEW.

SOME OF THE STUDENTS AS THEY DO THEIR CLASSES.something new is now happening, in Victorais ministry. she is a mother of two, and is also a teachers,in the SIM basic education learning center, and also a teacher to her recently turned 5years boy,(Praise) but one of the thing that is now hapening is the fact that she is trying her best to help her child know how to read and write. and all his friends are always waitting for him to come out,and join them as they wait to play with him.
out of her thinking if this is not taking care of, then even our own son will not have to face his education, and that will not mean well for him and his friends for that reason, and the fact that the Bible said " we should allow the children to come to him for the kingdom of God is for such as them" so Victoria with her, kind heart then allow the 4 kids to join in the class together with Praise. but little did she know that this will be a big thing to her, just two days after she took the four inn, all the neigbours sent all their kids to come join the school. so from 4 to around 20 pupils for Victoria to teach. STILL ON THEIR .CLASS WORKVICKY DISTRIBUTING WORK BOOKS TO PUPILS HELPING
THEM TO WRITE WELL BY OLDING THEIR HANDS
THIS IS VICKYS WAY OF HELPING TO EQUIP THE SUDANESE FOR THE WORK OF THE MINISTRY, THIS IS A BIT NEW HERE BUT THE PARENTS OF THE KIDS KEEP COMIN TO REQUEST ROM VICKY IF THEIR WARDS WILL BE ANG ALLOWED TO COME AND JOIN THE KIDS CLASS. SOME OF THEIR ACTIVITIES INCLUDE PLAYING AND SINGING SPIITUAL SONGS OR MORE COMMONLY KNOWN AS THE BIBLE SONGS, IT GETTING MORE AND MORE FUN FOR HER, AND ALSO BLESSFUL, TO HAVE THE CHANCE TO HELP KIDS THAT ARE LONG LEFT AT OME WITH OUT SCHOOL. ONE THING THAT VICKY HAVE DISCORVERD IN ALL THIS IS THAT MOST OF THESE KIDS ARE JUST TALENTED, JUST THAT THEY ARE LEFT WIOTHOUT SCHOOL. YOU TOO CAN BE A PART OF THIS GREAT DRAM TO HELP EDUCATE TH YOUNG ONES THAT ARE LEFT TO THE MERCY OF GOD, YOU CAN BE A PART BY, DONATIONS OR BY AVAILING YOURSELF, ATO HELP TEACH THE GREAT LEADERS OF TOMOROW.

4-1 VICTORY OVER YABUS GABA

THEY MAY LOOK DIFFERENT BUT THEY ARE ALL FROM THE SAME TEAM JUST GIVING THANKS TO GOD FOR HIS PROVISION OF THE UNIFORMS.


It was another day of sport, me and my young boys gave thanks to the Lord for his love and grace to us. He provided us with some two sets of jerseys, and 7 footballs, this has been our prayers for a long time now. So we organised a thanks you football match, this match was an intramural tournament that has to so with just the boys, we are 50 in number and so we broke into three teams, and that was how we all gave thanks to the Lord for his provisions.THE MATCH.

After that intramural tournament we then decide to try our skills with other outside teams, so we travelled to a town called, Yabus Gaba, it is around 10-15 KLM away from the place we stay, still we all have to walk this far distance, and play a 1:30 football. One of the things that really gave us joy is that the boys we play with are older and bigger than us, in fact, even stronger, but at the end of this match we were able to win with a goal of 4-1 this was an impressive result being our first away match, that really make us proud, we sang all the way to Yabus, dancing and clapping our hands, it was a big day for us, and believe me the boys played their best, with good passes and good score, thanks to the Lord.
THE START OF THE 4-1 VICTORY MATCH OVER YABUS GABA.
LITTLE PRAISE WAS ALSO PART OF THE TEAM.

FAMILY TIME,AND TEACHING

these are the families during the teaching sectionFor a long time now we have been wondering and praying for a chance to share, the joy of a good marriage with our other families in the Church, though we once have done this to our student as a form of a seminar, but in the Church there was a lot of gap, that need to be closed. so the Lord brought to us the chance to share about this topic.ONE OF THE TROUBLED FAMILYWe took time during one of the Sundays to introduce this hot topic, to our amazement; it was welcomed with an open arm. We taught that Sunday about marriage, bringing all the families together, each one with his wife sitting close to him, this was not something that the Sudanese are use to but we insisted that it must have to be that way, and the good Lord, helped us to convince them. just then we kicked off the teaching, in just a few time they started nodding their head, but from the beginning they were all shay to sit with their wives, i then asked a quick question, “ how long have some of you sat with your wives like this” some say since we got married others say 8years, ago, the lowest was, 4years back, on hearing this a chill ran down my spine, to make things short we then had both the men and women, making new promises to their wives. The promise was to have a change in their marriage.FAMILIES MAKING NEW PROMISES.
One other thing that we have learned is that there are a lot of problems in most of the marriages or say families that were in attendance, after, asking if there is anything we want to be praying about, a lot of hands shut up. Given the chance to say their request, it turns out to be a problem, ranging from fighting, separation, alcoholism, and maltreatment. We then had appointment with the troubled families, just to have like a counselling section with hem, that really paid off, we were able to start few we have made a breakthrough but some we are still trusting the Lord to have his way, and bring a resolve in the issues keep praying for them.
THE SPEAKER IN ACTION.KEEP PRAYING FOR THESE FAMILIES, AS WE ALSO HELP AND PRAY THAT THE GOOD LORD WILL MAKE IT POSSIBLE FOR US TO BRING A CHANGE.

TESTIMONY.

James giving to me few to pray and to take home for food.

our joy and dance
our team in the farm house
our team taking a tour of the farm
this is the farm of the church leader
It is always a joyful thing to see that all that a man have been saying to his friends are been put into practice, he reason for saying this is, God has blessed some of my friends this year.
God gave to me the opportunity to always share in the Mabaan Church, and one thing I do is to always listen to that good quite voice that always lead me on.
One day I was given the chance o speak to the church, and so I took me reading from the book of Ephesians, 5: 15-16. I talked to the church on the importance of wisely using our time. It use to be that all the people just wit down and wait for NGO’s to provide for them claiming that this is our land and we have to benefit from it, I told them that the land belongs to them but the money is not theirs, and so instead of waiting fro a man to come and say take this 10 EB, why not you say take to him.
We also talked about, the fact that he who always buys is the foolish man, but he that sells is the wise man, advising them to learn how to sell not just to buy. And if you have no money it is better to start a small farm that will help feed the family instead of buying always and you are not even working to earn the money to use for buying.
It was really a challenge to them to hear this type of talk from the pulpit, and that was long ago, before the rainy season of 2009, we all left the church quite and cold from the sermon.
But, as the Bible says
“My word shall not go Back empty, they shall accomplish the purpose they are sent for” I HAVE SEEN THIS HAPPEN, happily enough for me this past December, I have been visiting the farms of other people from the Uduk church, (there I did not preach) and I found that they have also done something to help their families, little did I know that the Mabaan church members also picked up the challenge to go back to farm. I was invited to one of the farms, and to my surprise it was more that I ever thought of, and I received the testimony from the owner saying, “I have never bought anything fro the market anymore, I have seen the great change in my income and my family never have to stay hungry again even for a day” I was full with joy and I danced, to the glory of God, thank God they’ve heard the good news and are responding to it positively. I visited the others also to see what they have done for last year and it was awesome, thank God for them, and for a fruitful sermon.

CHURCH LEADERS DINNER

THE CHURCH LEADERS AND THEIR ELDERS AND DEACONS.
End of the year is such a good time, as many people here hosted friends, to a big dinner, we were also invited to most of these dinners.
So we thought of what to do and the Lord says to us “invite the church leaders and their elders and host them, tell them about their good work, and also try to advice them on the neglected areas, and that is evangelism”
So we obeyed the voice of the Lord and invited the leaders of the two churches, this I mean, the Uduk,and the Mabaan churches, plus their elders and deacons.
But trust the Lord for his goodness all the missionaries also came and our neighbours also joint, it was a great time as I shared the word of the Lord and also gave my own advice, as the Lord directed me.
At the end of all things the two church leaders gave thanks to God for all he has done and for his love to them, the also appreciated all that took place and called it an eye opener. The missionaries also said their own thanks and encouraged that this will continue all year ends.

THE TIME TO SHARETIME TO EAT IT WAS LITTLE BUT THE AIM FOR GATHERING WAS ACHIEVED
THE CLOSING PRAYER.
OUR THANKS TO THE LORD FOR HIS LOVE AND WISDOM TO US, AND FOR USING US TO ENCOURAGE THE CHURCH LEADERS, WE PRAY THAT ALL THAT HAS BEEN SAID WILL BE PUT TO USE IN JESUSNAME ALL WE HAVE TO DO IS TO KEEP PRAYING FOR THEM.
