Our kids, Josh, Kimia, & Maddie, are expecting an addition to their precious family around the 7th of September. Please pray for Kimia as she’s dealing with morning sickness, that she and the baby will be fine and healthy when all is said and done.
As Covenant missionaries, we are working with all the tribal groups of the Central African Republic (CAR) but are trying to give special attention to the Fulani, a Musxlim, cattle herding, and semi-nomadic people group. We live on an experimental/training farm, near a mission station which has a hospital plus bible and nursing schools. We are establishing relationships with the local people groups through compassion ministries; Roy through agriculture and Aleta through public health and visitation, in order, ultimately, to share the good news of Jesus the Messiah with them. CAR is one of the least developed countries in the world and is currently in continual crisis (since the coup in March 2013), so reaching out in compassion is key to reaching their hearts. Due to the ongoing conflict and resultant ethnic cleansing in CAR, we are crossing the border to interact with our Fulani contacts.
Congratulations. That is excellent news. Keeping Kimia in our prayers – sending good thoughts your way.
