Radio Feba - Lees Hoe Een Radio 'n Hele Gemeenskap Verander!

 Radio verander 'n Hele Gemeenskap!

“Die geloof volg uit die aanhoor van die boodskap,” skryf Paulus in Romeine 10:17 (NLV) en baie in Afrika kan daardie boodskap slegs deur die radio hoor. FEBA se Kersfees-radioprojek beoog om fondse in te samel vir radio’s en oudio-Bybels om die Goeie Nuus aan luisteraars in Tsjad, Malawi, Mali, Mosambiek, Niger, Soedan en Tanzanië oor te dra.

Malawi

FEBA Malawi se bediening groei teen só ’n vinnige pas dat hulle nie kan byhou met die aanvraag vir radio’s en oudio-Bybels nie. Die span het onlangs Yao-luisteraars in die Zomba-streek besoek en was  dankbaar om te sien dat baie Yao Moslems na Christus keer deur FEBA se uitsendings. By een geleentheid het sowat 60 Moslemmans en -vroue by luisteraarklubs aangesluit met die hoop dat hulle meer van God sal leer. Een luisteraar het gedeel: ...

    2. Second Anniversary of the Upper Room House of Prayer

    After nine years in the Himalayas we know very well that for Tibetans to come to
    Jesus, we have a spiritual battle for their hearts and minds.

    Two years ago Teremi accepted the challenge to establish a House of Prayer in
    Mcleod Ganj, right in heart of Tibetan Buddhism. God called us to worship, pray and
    devote ourselves to Him. 

    Our prayer room with its blue carpet has become a haven of prayer for many.
    We never expected that so many people would join us. This House of Prayer has
    built partnerships with other groups throughout the world praying that many
    Tibetans would come to the love, joy and peace of Jesus.

    Thank you to all our friends who have joined in prayer with us. We look forward to
    many more hours of prayer and worship as we wait for Jesus to miraculously bring
    many souls to him.

    3. What We are Doing in South Africa

    Our time in South Africa has four objectives. These are (in no particular order)
    • to arrange our visas to India for the next 5 years;
    • to meet our family - it's been three years since Leonie last saw our 
    • grandchildren;
    • to visit with friends and encourage them in their walk with Jesus; and
    • to call the Christians of South Africa to reach out to those in need of 
    • Jesus both at home as well as around the world.
    When we arrived in South Africa on the 27th of September, we first spent a few
    days with Joy and Jonathan, our children who currently live in Pretoria.
    This was a wonderful time of reconnecting and strengthening our bonds with our
    grandchildren Kari (turning 13), Joakim (turning 11) and Laila (3).

    They will be moving to Cape Town soon, so we also started disposing of our things
    that they had kept in their shed since we left South Africa more than 9 years ago.
    We will be finishing that job in the coming month.

    We then spent some time with Ineke, a long-time friend going back 17 years.
    When she bought her house she renovated it with the specific intention of hosting
    friends from around the world. For example, when she put in the guest room shower,
     she had Alfred in mind. We even had time for boardgames with Joy's Cousin Ken.

    At Ineke, her dogs Sashimi and Krabbels weren't quite sure what to make of these
    strange invaders, but pretty soon they took to us. Sashimi even found her place on
    the couch next to Alfred, sleeping away while he was busy at the computer. That
    was so precious to him.
    We then visited Faan in Kempton Park. They have a lovely granny flat that we
    regularly spend time in. Their place was our base for our visits around the
    East Rand. As usual, Faan and Liezl's hospitality was legendary. Below is a picture
    of their daughter Marli with the trifle that they made for us.
     
    We  then returned to Pretoria where our friend Grantley invited us to stay in one of
     the cottages that he and his wife Madelyn have set aside for visitors. It is in
    Boschkop a few kilometres East of Pretoria. The picture at the top of the page was
     taken at his house and reflects the beauty of the place.

    And while we were visiting these precious folks, we were holding meetings.
    Up to 29 November we had 28 meetings with around 330 people.

    So what do we tell people?

    We're so glad you asked. Read on below.

    4. The Challenge

    Having spent time living among the Tibetans, we have had news experiences that highlighted for us that there are people n exile far from their homeland. 

    Our message to South Africans is simple. People around us have needs.
    These people are loved by Jesus. When they suffer, he feels their pain.
    He is looking to us to love those in trouble or in pain.

    Yes, the country is going through trying times. There is a lot of uncertainty and fear
    fed by crime, the economic situation and politics. This does not change the fact that
    Jesus is in control, and that as we serve him, he will take care of all our needs.
    We therefore have to care for others.

    This starts with the people in our families - our parents, our children and our greater
    family like uncles, aunts, cousins, nephews and nieces. This then needs to  be
    extended to our neighbours and the people at work. We need to show love to the
    folks at the shopping till and the policeman that turns off the road.

    We need to be active in the church and giving financially to God's work, whether it
    be with the local congregation, the poor or missionaries.

    We need to pray for God's will in all these people's lives.

    When we do this, we are submitting to Jesus. His life will give us joy as we submit
    to him. He will provide all our needs in his way and his time.

    So we are asking people to truly make God their king, and see what amazing results
     follow.

    5. Some Photos

    At a home church that we visited, Leonie led a Bible study with flannelgraph.
    The folks were enthusiastic about it and we had a lively discussion. 
    As visitors from another land, we were invited to speak to the students of the
    Hatfield Christian School. This was special for us because we got married in this
    same chapel 39 years ago. 

    The children responded to our stories with gusto. May they too be inspired to reach
     out to others!
    I (Alfred) was struck by this turn-off from January Masilela Drive, a busy road in
    Pretoria. As you can see, it does not go very far. The pedestrian crossing that has
    been placed here is surreal. Equally surreal is the on-ramp just a few metres further
     coming from nowhere.

    6. Praise Reports

    • It is one year after Leonie's fall while she was in Udaipur. Her back continues 
    • to make progress. We look forward to the day that she will be completely 
    • healed.
    • We are overjoyed that God has been with the House of Prayer for two years 
    • now and look forward to many answers to prayer.
    • We have been blessed by all the people that we have met. May the Lord bring 
    • them closer to him and then send them out to serve others.
    • Last month we asked you to pray for Timothy, one of Alfred's Tibetan friends. 
    • His bank account was frozen without any good reason. Alfred counseled him
    •  to stay patient and to continue to seek redress from the bank. 
    • Timothy contacted Alfred last week with the news that his account had been 
    • unfrozen. He was over the moon, and thanked Alfred for his advice and 
    • prayers. He sees the resolution of his problem as an answer to prayer. 
    • Thank you for your prayers in this matter. 
    • May Timothy come ever closer to Jesus!

    7. Prayer Requests

    • Please pray for Leonie's complete healing.
    • Please keep praying for our meetings in the coming months.
    • Please continue to pray for the next Kongki Ka translation that all will 
    • happen in the Lord's time and in the Lord's way.
    • We still need financial provision for our living expenses. We have received 
    • some amazing provision in the last two months that have made a real 
    • difference. Please keep praying for us. This is particularly important as we 
    • have no way to cover the expenses of our visits in South Africa. 
    • We are living in obedience to Jesus and he has his plan to make this work.
