Prayer for Church License
Those who are wise will shine like the brightness of the heavens, and those who lead many to righteousness, like the stars for ever and ever Daniel 12:3.
Hello Brothers and sisters in Christ,
How are you? I hope everyone is doing well. Of course, things are not going as is planned in Africa however by the grace of God we are doing well. We started praying, worshiping, and sharing the word three times a week, which is on Wednesday and Friday from 4:00pm to 6:00pm and Sunday from 3:00pm to 5:30pm, and it is going well. However, to organize church and to start official services we need the license. For more than two and half months, the government has stopped the process but now they started. So far, fourteen people brought the required documents and one person will bring theirs next week then we will submit it to the federal office. I need 15 references to get a license. The Government will check all the documents and give us our license but it requires a lot of prayer because they are not doing as they say.
Regarding the musician, I found one but I am looking for a better talented person because if people do not feel comfortable on the first day they will not come again. First impression is very important for the new Church. My friend Woyessa and others are helping me in different areas I thank God for them. I ordered a pulpit and it should come in three weeks. I plan to start building the four rooms for Children’s Sunday school and an office after I organized the church and get the license. In addition, I am looking for a good projector, they are hard to get here, hopefully I will get one soon.
Sad story, last week thieves took my phone from my pocket on the taxi, I paid a lot of money for the phone to use for pictures, video, and Internet but they took it and now I bought the cheap one. Regarding my health, I am doing well I thank God for that.
Finally, I want you to thank God for what He has done so far and to pray for His presence with us, to give us the right evangelist, help us to get license as soon as possible, and to provide our future financial needs because we have a lot of work ahead of us.
Thank you and may the grace of God be with all of you.
