September 8, 2004 Dear Reader, September 1st Maggie and I celebrated the
completion of 25 years of ministry service.
Reflecting back, there have been some up’s and down’s, some bumpy
roads, and many twist and turns, but all in all they have been 25 wonderful
years. I look back and remember many
of God’s blessings and give praise to our Lord that He called us and has used
us to win the lost, establish churches, and train others for the furtherance
of the Gospel. God has a job for us
to do and we look forward with great joy to laboring for the Master until He
comes. In July I had my six months checkup and the blood coming
from my kidney is less than it was when they found the problem. I believe that the Lord is answering pray
and using the medicine from Brazil to bring healing. Please continue to pray for me. I received a letter from Brother Makhusa yesterday. He reports that two of the four pastors
studying with him in Nsanje have completed their Graduate of Theology
studies. The Pastors completing their
course work are Bandarson Butaoh of Buleya Landmark Baptist Church in Nsanje
and Leonard Mozalande of Nyakabande Landmark Baptist Church. Brother Makhusa is planning an ordination
service in November. The Lord willing
we will be able to participate in the ceremony and present their diplomas
during our Malawi trip in November.
Brother Makhusa also reports that 5 new works have been
established. They are in Molsen,
Sorgin, Thukuta, Mpapaya, and Sandama.
In addition to the Malawi trip I urgently need to visit
the Seminary Extensions in Brazil and Peru as soon as possible. Please pray for God’s financial provision
that we can make these trips and complete the things that we need to
accomplish. For His Glory, Dr. Jimmy Nelson |
