Beloved,

As always, your prayers are vital to this ministry to the Makua people. This next week, Tuesday afternoon through Friday (9th - 12th), there is a marriage conference here in Nampula for pastors and their wives. The two main speakers are Wayne Mack and his wife and a Brazilian missionary. We are helping to host 20 people from out in the villages. They have never been exposed to such rich teaching from God's Word. Please pray for their spiritual growth, comprehension of the messages, health, and safe travel.

We are also launching the a training for 'Farming God's Way' shortly after they arrive on Monday. (There will be more on this in our next update.) Please pray that all will go well for that. Also, a hardened and unbelieving government official for our neighborhood may be observing this initial training. Please pray that God softens his heart toward us and our presence here.

Your servants,
Daniel & Melissa Maddux

Your people shall all be righteous; they shall possess the land forever, the branch of my planting, the work of my hands, that I might be glorified. The least one shall become a clan, and the smallest one a mighty nation; I am the LORD; in its time I will hasten it. (Isaiah 60: 21-22)
