Anna's hand is healing!

We have started a bible study in a village close to our home in Katse Village. Our first Tuesday there were over 40 women and children.

We have just received word that we will get our pickup soon...thank you Lottie Moon.

Speaking of Lottie Moon...we have been given a 10 week old border collie pup. Her name is Lottie and Jimmy will use her to help him herd the goats in our goat ministry in the Mokhotlong region.

People that we have shared God's plan for the goat ministry think that it is a very good idea and great way to reach people.

Language study is going.....slow, but going

Praying...

• Housing in the Mokthotlong region and wisdom from God on ex-actly where He wants us to live.

• LANGUAGE STUDY

• Our Person of Peace in the Mokhotlong region and pray that we receive "grace" from the chief there.

• Pray that the people will be receptive to the message of Christ.

• Teresa's new friend, "Tolerance"...pray that the Holy Spirit speaks to her heart and that she will boldly lay aside the charms of the witchdoctor.

• Homeschooling of Grace, Anna, and Rebekah

• We have struggled the past few days with missing family. Pray for God's continued strength.

• Volunteer teams as they begin to plan their trip to the mountains of Lesotho

• Shepherd Ministry to begin in December

• We still have not received our 2 year VISA that we applied for in April. We cannot get our crate with all of our "stuff" until we have the VISA in hand and Teresa NEEDS her stuff!

Mission Tracks

Pioneer Teams-Pony trek to the far peaks and valleys of the Maluti Mountains, reaching the unreached and unevangelized villages of the Maluti Mountains. Share Bible stories with those who may have never heard. Pray with people of the village. Help define and develop "preaching points" in new areas. Help find and map new areas and villages where no Christian work exists. Utilize your time to seek and develop a vision from God about how your church can be involved in reaching the Basotho.

Prayer Teams-Pray in villages and over villages. Hike, pony trek or travel by 4 wheel drive into remote areas of the mountains. Stand on top of the mountain, and pray over the villages in the valley. Intercede for the salvation of the Basotho as you engage the lostness of Africa from the ridge of a mountain. Seek how the Lord might involve your church in an increasing fashion.

Pastoral Training Teams-DOM’s, Associations, Church Staff: invest in the future spiritual leadership of Lesotho. "Equip the equippers" by teaching theology and Biblical Inter-pretation to those who have no other way to receive this training.

Practical Teams

Teach True Love Waits in local schools and churches

 Medical Clinics

 Feed and minister to shepherds

 Teach women to knit, sew, crochet, quilt . . .

 Animal care clinics

 Build "key-hole" gardens for widows, orphanages, or AIDS victims, teaching a Bible study as the garden is built (you won’t need anything…t’s all right here!)

 Teachers: teach missionary kids for a week. You will equip them and enable their parents

 VBS in a village (please remember there will be no electricity or running wa-ter!)

The reality of Africa is spiritual darkness. As a result of this reality, spiritual warfare is inevitable. The focus of any team must be to dispel this darkness. Therefore, crucial elements of team preparation must include fervent prayer and preparation to incorpo-rate Bible studies/lessons/sharing the Gospel into each of these tracks as part of our strategy to lead people to Christ and plant healthy churches among the Basotho.

Kea Leboha,

Jim (Keketso) and Teresa (’Ma’liketso) Flora
