Dear Pastor and Church,
We bring you sincere greetings and pray that this meets you doing well in the Lord. The world scene is not doing well, but we are not perturbed because we know our God is in control of His creation and He is our refuge, a very present help in trouble.
The Lord has been doing us good. We baptized eight souls in December, and we are very thankful. We strongly believe God is still willing to save souls. All we do is preach His good news in Jesus Christ. What we do is when we reach out to souls and they tell us they want to be baptized, we take them through a class which consists of going over the gospel and telling them what baptism is and why they must be baptized after they are saved. Once the convert shows understanding of this, we go to the riverside and baptize. My aim is to baptize for the right reason.
Our town preaching got a break in December, hopefully to resume in February. The Radio Broadcast is going on well. We have five broadcasts a week. We think with the feedback we get, it is being well listened to. Our mission at Meryiwa was partly started because of our radio outreach. Meryiwa is about 160 miles northwest of where I stay. We reach them from our second radio station. Presently they are a group of about thirty adults, and the leader is a faithful student of our Bible Institute. We thank the Lord for this and thank you all for your financial and prayer support. God bless you.
The eight men I have been polishing to get them ready for ordination and organizing of the missions are now ready. Lord willing, with the approval of our sponsoring church we will do this work by June 2025. We are excited. Please uphold them in prayer. They are Brothers Michael Matey, Martin Akliku, Emmanuel Ayertey Tetteh, Isaac Anim, Gideon Agbeko, Elisha Narh, Philip Narteh Tetteh and James Tettey Narh. These are all married men and leaders in five of the missions. For now we are hoping to organize four of the missions and the fifth one by the end of the year. Please pray for Brother Richard Denu, another young man I have been having lessons with. He comes and we study for some four months, then employment takes him away for so many more months before coming back again. He is a good student, loves the things of God but is not very stable.
My family is doing well by God’s grace. God has been blessing us with good health, and the two young ladies and two young men have jobs. Senyo is still in London with my senior brother. He could not come home last year because of a difficult work situation.
May our God of all grace continue to show His love, grace and mercy on all of you.
Bro. Samuel, Gloria and grown Children
