  • UPDATE: WE HAVE FOUND A GUINEAN TUTOR ONLINE!!! WE ARE USING THE APP PREPLY WHICH CONNECTS LEARNERS WITH NATIVE SPEAKERS. IT HAS BEEN TREMENDOUSLY HELPFUL AND ENCOURAGING. KEEP THE PRAYERS COMING. ...*****We need to go to the next level in French. We have all learned enough to function and to do ministry, but we want to be able to go deep here. For real discipleship and for teaching and training, we need to improve. 2 specific prayer requests are for divine help, learning language in your 40s is not as easy as your teens or 20s. It's not impossible but we need help. We also need to find creative solutions for making time. Our schedules here are FULL! But this is a priority so we need wisdom from the Lord on how to prioritize it in our schedule!

  • Two boys in Upper Guinea gave their hearts to the Lord on our last Tab Team trip. Pray for Amara and Asham. For them to continue to connect at the church and to learn more about Jesus and what it means to be a Christian

  • We have a team coming November 10-19, to build our first ever Kid's Tabs and to do Children's ministry and Evangelism. Pray for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit.

  • Abigail is doing well in Kenya. Pray that she learns all the Lord intended for her there and for her to also hear His voice clearly as she is in the final month of her internship.

    Pray

  • Matthew is loving his new school and has made many great new friends. He has a church he is plugged into as well. Pray as he is working hard to earn the money he will need for next semester's Room and Board. He is being diligent and tithing faithful so we trust and believe that God will provide. He is also working on scholarships applications so pray for favor with those as well.

Children's Tabs

We need funds to build 30+ Children’s Church structures in strategic locations throughout Guinea. These structures are used for Sunday school classrooms. They can also used to create kid’s camps and hold VBS services. They will also be used for Christian schools. This is an effective strategy to reach non-Christian children as local schools do not always provide an adequate education so many families are willing to send their children to our Christian schools.
