Our family at Victoria Falls in Livingstone, Zambia – June 2013

We praise God for the fruitful ministry of Dr. Sorensen and the Faith Fellowship Church Team (from Marshfield, WI) as they ministered here in Zambia in the month of June. More to come in our next newsletter!

Faith Fellowship Team at a school in Lusaka –  June 2013

-Please pray for wisdom and guidance as we start the CROSS Project Term 2 (August-November). We have one church already lined up and have two other potential churches. Please pray for everything to get sorted out and lined up in the next couple of weeks so we can start on time and end the term before the December break. Churches are busy because of the Christmas season, and Lusaka becomes a flooded, rainy mess.
