FRIENDS AND FAMILY SPECIAL NEEDS

PLEASE PRAY FOR JIM AND LINDA GANDY. Here is an excerpt from a recent newsletter.

Our team is called the broad seed sewing team. We are seeing the numbers of re-quested copies of the New Testament rise. Last week, for instance, we mailed 80 across all over the country from requests this week alone. We hope and pray it is an indication of increased movement of the Lord in the hearts of the people here. Our of the 80 mil-lion people in the country, more than 96% are non-believers. We have crossed our 8-month point in our new city. We are learning fast, but we feel there is still an overwhelming amount to learn. We are in month 6 of language learn-ing. We were told it was a very hard language, and we were not lied to. Prayers for upcoming months:

1. Language learning 2. Build relationships with neighbors,

store owners, etc. 3. Continued opportunities to share 4. For God to move among the people

here 5. Favor with government as we and

others continue to work toward getting driver’s license and renewed VISAs.

6. For wisdom in strategies as we seek to get truth out to those seeking.

November Bible Verses

“You know the time, that the hour has come for you to wake from your slumber. For salvation is nearer to us now than when we first

believed. The night is far gone; the day is at hand. So then let us cast off the works of darkness and put on the armor

of light.”-Romans 13:11-12
