I am blessed to announce that myself, and Mike Matevich, will be headed to Zambia for the GCMS annual conference, and pastoral training refresher this summer. As well as the ladies that attended and taught at the very first women's conference last year.
Among those traveling with us will be my daughter Angela Morgan, Jane Cross, Mallory McAtee, and Jennifer Wehman.
They will be helping lead and assisting in the Vacation Bible School and women's teaching.
We anticipate 3,000 children in attendance for VBS.
The dates in total for the GCMS conference and VBS are August 17th -24th. We will fly out the 13th, and will be back in the US August 27th. We greatly need your prayers for traveling mercies, all luggage to get there going and coming back. Health, and a holy stamina in Jesus name!
IAM TESTIMONIES
Lets hear from Jane Cross of Caves Springs Baptist Church in Priceville, Alabama who was on our trip last year:
"What started as a trip to Africa last year became a calling I could not ignore. The children I was blessed to minister to weren't just part of a moment in time for me but they became part of my responsibility. The work God had for me there was not finished.
You see, what started as an idea on a bus to Botswana has come to fruition. This children’s Bible study, Jesus Gonna Jesus, Throughout the Bible, was born from that realization. It’s a journey to help kids see Jesus from Genesis to Revelation, to know He was, is, and always will be at work.
The day after I received my first printed copy of the study, I was asked from the Sunday School director Gift Kapika if I could send 40 copies and at least 10 KJV Bibles to Zambia.
This would benefit 30 churches and minister to over 1,500 children! The shipping request was set for the end of February. We are meeting that goal! Our first shipment was sent last week!
In response, I have been researching and editing, and I just placed an order for 100 copies. I am simply being obedient, knowing that God has brought me this far and will provide for the journey ahead. I also plan to send all the supplies needed for the 30 churches to conduct crafts and activities included in the study.
Sunday school director Gift Kapika with GCMS traveled to Kafulafuta this past weekend and met with 16 Sunday School teachers from 14 churches to update them on the new Jesus Gonna Jesus Bible study and teach a class where 5 children accepted Christ!
Today, he ended his short trip by stopping in Lunashya and meeting with 11 more teachers, to share with them what God is doing.
I am so thankful to partner with International African Missions and to send this study to my ministry brothers and sisters in Zambia, Africa, and also bring it with me on my next trip in August! May it be a blessing to every child who reads it and every adult that teaches with it.
To God be the glory!
Jane Cross
