MALI MISSION MARCH09: Three more baptisms in Village Y, more Scripture taught, departure for Senegal
March 27, 2009 · Print This Article
The last two days in Village Y, the team has had sweet times of worshiping and teaching Scripture. Yesterday, they had the blessed opportunity to lead three young men into salvation, and then baptize them.
The team has now split up, with Pastor Barry, the Journey Girls, and translators returning to Bamako through K’ba, and Keith and the missionary heading toward Dakar. Their long journey will soon be over, with Keith arriving back in Texas on Sunday afternoon. Please pray for safety in travel.
Praise God:
· for building and refining His Church in Mali this week;
· that Scripture is God-breathed and effectively used by Him to instruct and purify us;
· for the many seeds of the gospel that were planted this week (may they be watered and harvested in His timing);
· for Greg Pruitt’s willingness to spend many years of labor in translating the Bible into the Yalunka language;
· for using Penny Warner as an integral partner on this trip to Mali;
· that someday we, along with many from the Yalunka tribe, will be around His Throne giving Him glory:
Revelation 7:9-10
9After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no one could count, from every nation and all tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, and palm branches were in their hands;
10and they cry out with a loud voice, saying, “Salvation to our God who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb.”
**Thank you for playing a crucial part in this trip through your prayers!**
