Successful AMT despite Pandemic

COVID-19 put the world into unknown territory. As something new happened in the world, something new was happening in Mozambique. Four students traveled to Mozambique, unaware that a historic world lockdown would soon occur. Planes, busses, and 4x4s carried them over sea and dusty, sandy roads to reach our base in Inhambane, Mozambique. These students arrived just weeks before worldwide lockdowns forced border closures and flight cancelations. They were there to experience a move of God and connect with Him in a new way as participants in the first ever Advanced Mission Training outside of Zambia. Little did they know how different it would be!

Moments from the Field

Pauli N and Brad and Kellie R with their newborn Tatumn, packed their bags quickly when they heard the world was about to close. Arriving to Zambia the day before South Africa closed their borders, this team helped with construction on Rapid 14 for a few weeks then made the 33 hour drive to Mwinilungu. Their trailer sort of arrived as it lost two tires, broken leaf springs, and a loose axle...but they got there! #WhateverItTakes

With 29 missionaries currently learning Arabic, Khmer, Swahili, and Portuguese, language learning looks very different these days. We are thankful for all teachers around the world who are dedicated to educating their students. Lessons are now virtual!

Relevant Global News

"Scientists have discovered a microbe that completely protects mosquitos from being infected with malaria," Malaria is the number #4 killer in Africa, and this could great change the livelihood of generations to come. It will take time and require more tests, but they have seen a 100% blockage in mosquitos from malaria thus far. 

How to Pray

Stand with us in faith that we will be able to continue to deploy staff to continue our work across international borders. We are hopeful that it will be safe to travel to Zambia in Zanzibar by August as we have an Advanced Mission Training class with 50+ students and several expeditions. 

 

Stand with us for boldness, faith, and protection of our disciples. 

 

For wisdom for the many governments that our team is honoring during this pandemic.
