Working, Working, Working

ZCC stands for Zion Christian Church. The best part is that there are two separate ZCC church's by the same name. ONW has the symbol of the Dove and the other a star (which they are supposed to wear on their shirts everywhere). They were originally one church that split when the father died (who is their supposed prophet). It's pretty ridiculous.

We haven't been able to see Isaac this whole week because of a funeral he had to go to. His date might get pushed back, but keep praying for him.


This week we had a new record at church, 23 investigators. It was sweet. Two families that we have on baptism date all came to church. That was 6 people just right there. This week we're supposed to be interviewing the Toka's. They should be baptized on the 22nd of November. Please pray for Joshua Toka... he's got to be done smoking this week so he can be baptized. We are suppose to baptize the whole family (except for the oldest son), but I think its going to happen.


Something not so nice happened on Friday. We were preparing the Hamane family for their baptismal interview the next day and we ended up finding out that the mom who wants to be baptized is not married to the step-father that lives in the home...so were gonna have to keep working with them and get them married.

It's kind of hard...we're working and working and still our investigators just can't make it to baptism. But I know if we can just do missionary work right...something is going to click. I know the Toka's will make it to baptism. On their same date is a girl named Mmapitso. We're also teaching her family and we hope that they will come along as well.

I need your prayers.
thanks for your continued support.
