Greetings in the Name of Jesus! The purpose of this update is to bring you up to speed on what is going on in South Sudan as well as the groundwork being laid for our new church plant in the States.
South Sudan
The second building for the Alpha Primary School in Kanyara has been completed! The building was recently dedicated on the school grounds with students, community and government leaders in attendance. The Minister of Education was quoted as saying it was the best school in all of South Equatorial State. While we were in South Sudan, we helped oversee the laying of the foundation and the rest was completed after we left. What a joy it is to see a first class building completed for the cause of Christ. I am sure the children as well as their parents are thrilled to have this new addition to their community! read more…

As we approach a new and, I believe, critical & prophetic year in 2012, I wanted to share a word with everyone based on a message I shared recently with a praying congregation. The text itself is unusual & difficult, certainly not because of its simple message, but because of its implications. It is because of these very implications that we must make the words of our Lord & Savior a matter of intense prayer with fasting.
So, open your Bibles, and let us get after it! read more…

I was in Cambodia recently to teach on church leadership, discipleship and the gifts of the Holy Spirit to about 80 people, including pastors, church leaders and planters and outreach workers.
Upon reaching Siem Reap, I was greeted with flood waters as I traveled from the airport to the city. The Mekong river was swollen and the floodwaters severely affected those living close to the river. More than 200 people died in the floods throughout the country and till today the waters have not yet receded. On a more positive note, the rainy season will end soon, giving hope to the Cambodians that
their ordeal will soon be over. A Filipino missionary who has lived there for nine years said this is the first time she has witnessed such a severe flooding. With the increase in natural disasters in manyplaces around the world, I believe we are seeing signs of the Lord’s imminent coming. We must indeed work while it is day.
