We would once again like to thank every one who contributes to the cause of our missionary work in Chandame. We believe that we are in the End Times that the Bible tells us of in Revelations, and that the Gospel must be spread to every corner of the earth.
We are however very dependant on the people supporting us, as well as our Heavenly Father, to make this a success. We believe that God uses us and also other people to spread His Gospel. We are in the field every day, and would like to communicate to you, our support system, the needs that we have picked up in our communities. We pray that you will consider this in your prayers:
- We are always in need of medical supplies or equipment for the mobile clinic. Bandages, plaster, medicines, anything can help
- Clothing for the people can always help, as well as warm blankets
- Any equipment that can help us in building churches or make roads to prayer houses and to the farm can help
- Vaaljan, our bakkie, has also become quite old and is past the 500,000km mark. Please pray for us here as we are quite dependant on the bakkie for transport of both ourselves and church members
- Tools and any loose equipment can help, as we are always trying to teach the people as much as we can, and there are usually something that needs to be fixed – either Pastor’s motorcycle, or the pipeline to the dam, or anything anybody bring.
- We also try to support the missionaries around us, and have fixed motor cars or tractors or houses etc many times. We do however need support for that – whether in tools or in money to pay for parts, or labour, etc
- Anything that can help for the school that we are running will help us very much. We try to stimulate the children via teaching as much as possible, as we believe that they are the future of Africa.
- As always, being here and helping the people here to develop, building churches and prayer houses and starting schools and workshops. even just supporting the people here and spreading the Gospel, costs money. We are still living in a caravan, which is not by any means comfortable, but we have always set the needs of the people around us before our own. We have long been doing local work to generate income in helping us with the costs mentioned above, but would like to take the opportunity to ask you for any financial donations. This helps us tremendously in reaching our goals of spreading God’s Word throughout Africa, but we need your support to do that. Just as we are the tools God uses to do the work here in Chandame and the rest of Mocambique and Africa, we believe that you are God’s tools to support us in doing so. The Body of Christ is fully functional when all its parts are moving together.
Having said that, we would like once again to thank everybody who has supported us thus far – you have been incredible. We have so many plans to uplift the community even further, but this will take time and cost money, and we are many times dependant on both to do so.

Lastly, we ask for your constant prayers. We are many times in difficult situations, and ask that you do not underestimate the power of your prayers – it has helped us MANY times.
“May Your Name be Glorified, oh God, throughout the corners of the earth. May Your Name be sung on the lips of every human being and may You be Exalted above all forever”
All our love
Jannie and Susan
