The following is an update from IBK Akin, Provincial Director of Child Evangelism Fellowship of Manitoba and Nunavut Ministries. IBK and his family attend WRBC.
An adventurous week 1 and week 2 of summer clubs…
1 team of 3 ladies, did not have a physical address to a club location so in following their GPS directions in one of those remote communities they got led to a muddy road and the car got stuck. Alas! there was also no phone signal, so they trekked back to the highway to get help and unfortunately missed the club for Day 1.
2 separate teams got a flat tire and that also affected getting to clubs. #cartroubles
3 teams had a stressful first few days: some from the things mentioned above and others were the enemy using just about anything to disturb team unity and communication so as to not let our summer workers be as effective.
4 salvation stories: Despite what feels like enemy attacks, there were 4 confirmed salvation (Hurray!) stories just from the Training Clubs week.
5 refugee immigrant siblings are serving with us from a family of 9 (Katotoka Family) That is impressive – 2 of the 5 are returnees. Being from the same family is tricky for support raising since they have to approach the same groups at church so CEF has launched a gofundme page just for this family. We are also looking out for matching donors for them.
I share this with you to ask that you pray for our 22 missionaries as they travel Manitoba teaching children about God’s love and grace. We are in a battle for souls and implore you to fight with us on your knees!
