Sowing the Seed

Tomorrow (Saturday) we will be going into Chadiza district. We have taken 2 survey trips there in the past but only found 1 Baptist Church during our 4 hour drive. Tomorrow we are hoping to visit the villages of:
  • Akumadzi (Chief Mlolo)
  • Chadzombe (Chief Mlolo)
  • Kulika (Chief Zingalume)
These are new areas that we have not yet seen. Please pray with us as we meet the village headman, the people in the area, that we find the place, and that we are able to sow the Seed of God's Word believing it will bring forth fruit.

We have been told these areas are without any real Christian influence and still practice many of the Old Traditions of Zambia. This means there is likely to be much darkness and possibly spiritual oppression. We would love to see our Lord Jesus get the victory and bring people from darkness into the glorious Light (Acts 26:18) of God.  One of the elements found in Ephesians 6 when discussing spiritual warfare is prayer. Please help us by praying for God to be lifted up, the ears of the people to be open and that the word of the Lord would have free course (2 Thes 3:1).

Kevin and Savannah, I will be praying for protection and for life to be given through God's word. May He walk before you and be your rear guard. Thank you for being faithful to His call. Thank you for allowing us to be in prayer with you.

Sounds very exciting and also so urgent! To know there are so many that still need to hear the Gospel! Praise the Lord you are aware of this place and we are praying for the Lord's light to shine brightly through you! May the road ahead of you be straight and the praise of our God be on your lips! He inhabits the praise of his people!! Take lots of pictures! :)
