May 7-13, 2008

Praise to God for the abundant harvest at Picoco in the Boane area of Maputo Province. The ECC team, in partnership with Youth for Christ, has planted a church in this area where there is competition with the local mosque for the hearts of the residents. More than 100 people gathered recently to worship in the new church and view the Jesus Film, with most accepting Christ. The next morning, 65 returned for church. Remember this new church, Igreja Evangelica Palavra Viva, Pococo, and pray that they will grow in their faith. A young man, Nelho, from the Khongolote Church will pastor this church.

During May and June, prayer is especially needed for the revisions of the first writing of the church disciplines. Continue to ask God to form the church into a Mozambican denomination that glorifies and honors the Lord.
