We praise the Lord for a safe trip to Boudamasa and back to Michigan this month. The purpose of my trip was to open the Gethsemane Middle School in Boudamasa. Our kindergarteners from 2018 are now starting 6th grade! It was an eventful trip into the bush in the rainy season, with my brother Matthias along for initiation. 


Please pray for the family of Ousmane. He is the night guard for the school's cattle, and has shown much interest in the Gospel. His 10-year-old daughter died of mumps this week. Pray that our teacher community will be able to give him and his wife and son the comfort of the Holy Spirit. 




Peace, Nathanael

Life and ministry in our Chadian village looks like something like this: 

Bagirmi Creation Book

Our friends and neighbors are hearing the story of Creation and the Fall in their own language in our newly published Genesis story book. For many children and adults, this is the first book they have ever held, and certainly the first illustrated book they have ever seen. The story of God starts here, and continues in the lives of the this un-reached people.

Story Project

The Word gives life! So we continue to work in Bible translation as needed. Currently we are facilitating a "Story Project", to teach Bible stories to local people that they retell naturally in their own languages and record for distribution.
