I’ve been so blessed by being in Nelspruit, and staying at the Ehmke (M-Kee) house.
Poppa Kent has taken us under his wing and allowed, no encouraged, us to participate in the market place ministry..Monday is our day off…..so we just go to the “Forum” (shelter and feeding center)
Tuesday we are up and out before 8:00 AM. We spend the morning with the staff of a Realty office. We share coffee, tea and testimony about what God is doing in and around us; we invite the Lord to rule over their business and bless their efforts. We pray for specific needs of the employees and their families.
Wednesday we visit the Loweweld Primary School, where we lead the student body in P&W, a short lesson and prayer. awesome things are happening there….the children pray for one another and healing happens.
Thursday we start the day at the Meat Market; A family business owned by Wimpy and his dad, Razzi. We usually sing a song or two, share a story (Testimony) or life lesson and pray….The employees have begun to pray for their customers as well as each other.
Friday is the day we share coffee with the owners and staff of Lumber City (cabinet makers) a young partnership. The ministry is the same as the realty office, the people are different but their needs and desires are the same.
There is a business men’s group that meets at the house also on Tuesday.
We’ve been discussing a Working Women’s luncheon, with the idea of igniting a regular group of working women that mentor and uplift other working women, as well as network their businesses.
We have seen amazing things in these businesses and the lives of the staff in just a short time. These shops and the people have stolen my heart…..I love the market place.
