Alright, so there was a slight delay in entering the country of Mozambique. We meant to cross over last Thursday, but you wouldn’t believe how difficult it is to find transportation for 50-some people in Africa! So, as the doors for our planned departure were being closed, we enjoyed a few days spent in a house for missionaries. These past few days, I believe, were ordained by God as a time for our squad to grow closer together…
On Friday, we had a time of quiet throughout the house, where we spent time reading the Word and talking to God. Also on Friday, we were assigned a person on the squad in which we were to fast one meal and pray for that individual, asking the Lord to give us words to share with that person. Listening to other people on the squad, I think the time of quiet and stillness and praying on another’s behalf was indeed time well spent. Through these exercises, our squad is becoming more like a single entity. It is incredible and I pray that it continues for the remainder of the Race.
And so, today we have transportation reserved to pick us up this afternoon and take us to our different destinations in Mozambique and Zimbabwe. Team Indelible will still be serving in Mozambique. There is one team that will remain in Nelspruit, South Africa to work with Heidi and Roland Baker’s Iris Ministries this month. Please pray for our safety as most of us have a 20+ hour bus ride ahead of us. Please also pray for protection over the entire squad as we serve in different areas and countries.
More than likely, we will not have access to the internet over the next few weeks. I will be sure to have much to share with you when we come back for our monthly debrief.
Thanks to everyone that reads the blogs and/or sends encouragement. I may not be able to respond every time, but please know that I do read your words and Scriptures and that they mean a great deal! Please don’t stop! Thank you also to those that are praying not only for me, but for everyone on my team and in the squad. We may never know what we were spared from because of your prayers. We may also never know the blessings that we would have missed out on if not for your prayers. So, please don’t stop those either! May God bless you because of your part in this ministry!!
