FROM “BUSH BUNNY BRENDA“ DATE: APRIL 16, 2022 MALAWIAN MOTHER CHURCH SENDS VISITORS International Missions Director, Bishop David Kazima, and our newly appointed National Bishop, Emmanuel Zalira, will arrive in Pemba on April 19th for a 3‑day visit. Neither has ever been here to see our program. Living Waters Church of Blantyre, Malawi, is the founding church for Igreja Aguas Vivas (Church of Living Waters) in Mozambique. IT IS A GREAT HONOR to have these men visit, as Bishop Kazima was on the missions Board who allowed me to register their church in this Province/State way back in 1999. That birthed this massive orphan/church program. We haven’t seen each other since 1999 due to the physical distance between our ministry posts and difficulties in travelling to this area. Both men will tour our entire program as well as meet with our Village Pastors and the BBC while here. Bishop David Kazima, International Missions Director Bishop Emmanuel Zalira, National Pastor for Mozambique FRUITS OF OUR PASTORS’ LABOR From January to March, the “rainy season”, our Pastors have trudged through the mud to reach 100’s with the gospel. Village Pastors in group prayer. Many refugees are now able to return to their northern homes, so our time to reach them with God’s Word has come to an end. SALVATION NUMBERS ARE: ADULTS 206 TEENAGERS 224 CHILDREN 954 REFUGEES 52 A MAJOR MIRACLE occurred when a mother in need of a C‑section was prayed for by one of our Pastors. As the staff was preparing her for the very rough 40km/24 mile ride to the Regional Hospital, THE BABY TURNED IN THE WOMB and was delivered immediately! HALLELUJAH! Thank you Jesus! LARGE PYTHON TRIES TO STEAL A CHILD! The 2 brave men who walk our fence each day heard a woman screaming from her field that a snake was after her baby! The men raced to the area and grabbed the child before this 2.8 METER/9 FT. PYTHON could harm the 1 year old. They then bashed in the snake’s head. 2.8 meter/9 foot python killed by our fence guards. Courageous python killers. It is rare to find a python this long in our area, so it was shown all around our area before finally being buried. Non poisonous, but still deadly, it has a gripping bite that holds a small animal, or child, while they squeeze their prey until they suffocate. Moral: Not everthing that hugs means to say “I love you”. Happy Resurrection Day! BLESSINGS, BUSH BUNNY BRENDA LANGE AND THE BALAMA STAFF |
