Working Together for the Truth

Thank you for your prayers for the recent trip to Zimbabwe. They were certainly needed, as we experienced delays in arriving. Rachel & I sat on the plane for 6 hours in Asmara, Eritrea, while the weather cleared in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. The weather delays then affected Ronda, Pete & Harold, who missed their connecting flight and arrived in Zimbabwe a day late. They also had their Chicago to Saginaw, MI flight cancelled on their return, so they had to rent a car to get home. 

We are grateful for the grace God provided us in handling these travel delays. His grace also poured out on our time together with the LTLA team, as he blessed our efforts to work together for the truth. In keeping with 3 John 1:8 the LTLA team provided great hospitality. It was good to get "face to face" time (3 John 1:14), as you will see from the photos below. 

The Apostle John certainly understood the value of incarnational ministry, which he witnessed firsthand with Christ Jesus. Ronda, Pete & Harold of Hopevale Church in Michigan and Rachel & Timothy of Ames, IA had the joy of seeing first hand what God is doing through the LTLA team. Relationships were built, mutual encouragement was experienced, the love of God was shared, and two water tanks were installed. To God be the glory as his kingdom continues to advance in Chinhoyi! 

For the sake of the Name,
