Belated New Year Greetings,
Thank you for praying for the four young men who joined 17 others from Zimbabwe in attending the Pamoja Conference. Each of these young men were led to Christ and discipled through the LTLA ministry in Chinhoyi. They were impacted as you can read in their comments below on fasting and transformation:
"For our world to continue evolving, fasting is a fundamental phenomena. Many people changed their world through fasting (Isaiah 58:6) as seen by Moses, Hannah, Daniel in scripture and Martin Luther in more recent times. Fasting is a channel of power. We need the Holy Spirit for us to transform the world." (Lazarus- a 3rd year college student reached by LTLA in high school)
"I learned we need transformation in our lives first so that we can transform our communities and the Gospel is the only thing that can transform everything." (Simba- 2nd year college student reached by LTLA in high school and served 4 years on the LTLA ministry team)
"I learned that fasting is a divine corrective to the pride of the human heart. I also learned the importance of following up a new believer so they can reach full maturity and the ability to multiply their lives spiritually but remembering that only God can produce the growth. God can use me to create an environment for growth. Finally, we do not change we cannot become new people and new leaders for a new Africa." (Tatenda- reached by LTLA in high school and has served on the LTLA ministry team for the past year)
"There was a call for Christians to take part in the development of Africa but I can't change Africa unless transformation begins in me." (Shelton- college graduate reached as a student and who has served on the LTLA ministry team 2 years)

Excited to see the transformation God will bring in and through these young men!
