| We Hope This Finds You Well Hello!
We are starting a trade school! What does that have to do with missions? One of the challenges of sending African missionaries as church planters is support. We believe we should train African church planters to be self supporting by teaching them a trade. This month we launch a trade school to help meet that need. We trust it will have a huge impact. We will train in computer skills ( to start internet cafes), hospitality (to start back packers lodges), farming (to be able to grow and raise food to sell), and pre-school education (to start and coach pre-primary schools). We are trusting God for $50,000 dollars (about R380,000) to launch the trade school. Please pray with us, will you? To give you an idea of what we do... We spend time with the poor and unchurched, including Muslims and others who are totally unreached with the gospel, helping them practically, sharing Jesus, and starting new communities of Jesus followers, what we call simple churches. We gather all the churches for a celebration every few weeks to do baptisms, and to give the new believers a sense of being part of something bigger than their small home church. In the last two years our team has helped start about 40 simple churches. One of the things God has called me,Floyd, to do is mobilize more workers for the harvest. We are hoping in our life time to see workers go into every country in Africa, especially the Muslim areas of North Africa. There are over 350 million people in Africa who have never heard the Gospel one time! I, Floyd, just spoke at one of the universities here in South Africa for their “missions week.” There were hundreds of students that were volunteering to go to the nations. There was also lots of interest in the All Nations ministry here and in CPx. We’re hoping we’ll get more helpers! Everywhere we look there are needs, people to help, and ministry to be done. Six month CPx (Church Planting Experience), our leadership and training program just finished. Of the 40 students that completed the CPx program, 34 will be working full or part-time as missionaries. 29 of those will be working with All Nations, and 22 of those will be joining us here in Cape Town. Thanks for partnering with us. We need you!! Our personal support has taken a bit hit during the last few months. Quite a few friends who support Sally and me have lost their jobs, or taken big hits financially... we pray for you if you are one of them that God will meet your needs.
