MANGO TREE CHURCH REPAIRED IN 6 DAYS!!!!!
Folks, noth­ing but God could make some­thing so dif­fi­cult hap­pen so fast as replac­ing this 105 foot long roof in remote Africa!
At 4a.m. Mon­day morn­ing, Bala­ma time, (9pm EST Sun­day night), the mis­sions direc­tor of First Unit­ed Methodist Church, But­ler, PA was noti­fied of the need for a new roof on the church.
She imme­di­ate­ly con­tact­ed oth­er mis­sions mem­bers, as But­ler is the orig­i­nal spon­sor who built this church for the orphans and wid­ows of the Mavala vil­lage area.
Thanks to But­ler FUMC, the mate­ri­als to replace this roof were avail­able by Tues­day morn­ing, Bala­ma time, just 48 hours after the tor­na­do had hit it.
 
Bush Bun­nies are known for their tremen­dous HOPPING abil­i­ty, and my work crews know how to “Hop to it”!
We hit that place with a 20 man clean-up crew on Mon­day morning.
The car­pen­ters had the pieces of the old roof torn down, truss­es repaired, and all ready for a new roof by late Mon­day afternoon.
Mon­day night, we got the word that the funds for the mate­ri­als and repairs were on their way.
On TUESDAY,  10 car­pen­ters and a truck load of 4X4 beams were head­ed to Mavala on our tractor.
Those men had one wild ham­mer par­ty on Tues­day, as they start­ed saw­ing and nail­ing rafters into place.
By Thurs­day, all rafters were up and the 165 tin sheets were bought and hauled the 9 miles to this bush church site on our 6 ton truck.
SATURDAY, DEC. 24th, AT NOON, ALL WAS FINSIHED.
 
Church mem­bers were wait­ing for the last nails to be dri­ven in so they could clean up the church for their Christ­mas Eve prayer meet­ing that night.
It is amaz­ing what can be done when God “makes a way”.
 
BUSH BUNNY SHARES HER HEART
 
On Dec. 13th, I received an e‑mail from the woman who dis­ci­pled me through Bible School in Tulsa.
As soon as I saw the sub­ject line (before I even opened the mes­sage), I heard the Lord clear­ly say one word to me.
“ TRANSLATE!”
I imme­di­ate­ly thought OK, this must be impor­tant. When I opened it, no fur­ther expla­na­tion was needed.
What I received is this arti­cle about Angel­i­ca Zambrano’s experience.
 
Pre­pare to Meet your God, Angel­i­ca Zam­bra­no (23 Horas Muerta)
 
 
This tes­ti­mo­ny is extreme­ly detailed and powerful.
SIX DAYS LATER our Exec­u­tive Staff had it trans­lat­ed into Por­tuguese and copies were giv­en to all our Pas­tors and the BBC team (Bush Bik­ers for Christ-Vil­lage Evan­ge­lism Team).
This pow­er­ful tes­ti­mo­ny opened their eyes, and fired them up for what is ahead in these End Times.
Some of them are mak­ing more copies to dis­trib­ute to church­es in oth­er counties.
Eric and our Bible School teacher, Pas­tor Alber­to, plan to use it in teach­ing ses­sions on Eric’s Chris­t­ian Radio Programs.
 
God has man­dat­ed ALL OF US to GET READY FOR THE COMING OF HIS SON!
 
The time of Jesus’ com­ing is VERY near, yet there are many liv­ing in remote areas who have not heard of Him yet.
Our goal is to bring JESUS to as many as will listen.
We want NO ONE to be LEFT BEHIND sim­ple because they were nev­er told about JESUS and his won­der­ful gift of sal­va­tion to mankind.
 
Hap­py New Year to all of you!
