NEWSLETTER OCTOBER 2006

Praise the Lord Jesus Christ! God’s timing is great!

First of all, we want to say thank you for your support and prayers. Our God answers prayers. After three years of separation, I have been learned to be humble, and patient; and now my family has joined me here. God have done great things to us individually, now we are praising Him together. I was left to tell the nations how God’s grace is perfect. God gave me the vision to minister to widows and orphans from the horrible genocide in 1994; I’m not ashamed to preach the gospel by actions. I left all to the cause of my Father God for being His instrument.

Evangelical Revival Ministries update.

This summer in July, ERM host a Central Bible Church team (called Love Rwanda) and Multnomah Bible College team this was a successful and an important mission Trip!

 It was an exciting mission trip for both sides. The Americans teams met the 400 orphans waiting for sponsors, and the widows in need of support for projects that they have pending, projects that would allow them to be self sufficient.  The teams saw the needs present in Rwanda, the poorest country in the world.  They came back with a more intimate understanding of the circumstances facing people in daily life in Rwanda.

 Hopefully, this will encourage them to be ambassadors to of ERM to and encourage others to get involved with ERM Rwanda through sponsorship, projects, prayer, or on the mission field.

 In 1997 when I was working with the United Nations, I tried to help finance some projects, but it was like a small stone in the ocean until when God called me to leave the country and my family to be equipped to better serve God, and search for other true Christians in this blessed country of America, with open hearts to serve the needy.  We are praying for the right people who want to build bridges of love in the Great Lakes Regions of Africa.

 Today, there are still thousands of orphans in Rwanda with no home to care for them. Though there are Christian and widows families in Rwanda who would like to help these orphans, but they are not able to bear the financial burden. You can be one of those who have decided to invest in changing the life of hopeless and helpless children of Africa.

 ERM mission is to transform through the power of the Holy Spirit the Great Lakes Region of Africa by assisting local churches to support and enable widows and orphans. In this way we purpose to establish healthy families and equip a future generation of godly Christian leaders.

•  We are helping orphans to be like other children, by putting them in families thru a sponsorship program.

• We are helping widows to feel like they’re not forgotten, by training them with some skills and enable them to be active in the society.
• We’re helping pastors and evangelists to get basic training in the Bible alone.

Prayer Requests for ERM

• Pray for my family as they are adjusting. It’s not easy for my wife as she was active in a regular life of teacher at the University, and now learning a new culture, new system and found new friends.
• For our support, because God called me to be equipped and serve Him with ERM. I need wisdom and directions from our Father God.
• Pray for our financial situation - The board decided that my monthly expenses would be covered, as I want to focus in what God called me to do full time. We have received 10%  of the Donations and Pledges that are given to the ERM General fund. This however, is not enough to cover all of our expenses. Please be in prayer that God will provide for our needs.

Thank you for your continued support and prayers.
