· Monthly Updates

Hello everyone!

How are you all doing? It is hard to believe that we are already almost a month into 2020.

Sorry, no video this month, but we do want to update you with where we are at and what we have been doing.

It has been just over 2 and a half months, and we are now wrapping up our time in the United States. . During our time here we have had the privilege of spending time with family and friends.It has been good to reaffirm old relationships and establish new ones.

We will depart the United States on January 27. When we arrive in Cape Town, we will be staying with some friends until we are able to acquire accommodation of our own. Staying with our friends when we first arrive will be a great transition time for us, as we will likely be able to spend some time in prayer and waiting on the Lord for a week or so prior to actively looking for a permanent residence.

One might ask what we are looking for God to do in 2020. We feel all the more certain that what God wants to do in Cape Town, and ultimately all of Africa, will require His body to come together as one. In Exodus the entire nation of Israel worked together to assemble the Tabernacle; Moses received the blueprint, some donated supplies, while others did the construction. Everyone did what they could. And once the tabernacle was completed, the glory of God filled it. God wants to manifest His glory in the South African church, and that glory will be seen once the churches work together to build His church, and not their own. This will also include reconciliation between races and denominations.

Some items that you can keep in prayer are:

1. The churches of Cape Town will come together to build the Church of Jesus Christ

2. Permanent residence and transport for us.

3. For us to have a deeper revelation of who we are in Christ Jesus and who He is in us.

4. Whatever Holy Spirit lays on your hearts.

We look forward to getting back on the ground in South Africa and updating you all on what God is doing there. Love and blessings to all!

In Him,

Todd and Jen
