About:	Dearly Beloved, I am blessed writing this letter. I am the pastor of Triumph in christ church. I am married with two children. I’m age 64 and my wife 58. My occupation is farming. Eight years after giving my life to Christ I had a divine call from God to the ministry here in my village. Initially I resisted but when God started moving and dealing in my life, I obeyed. Ekhoe is a rural village community of about 4,000 inhabitants. It is a typical traditional community. In recent years the village has been greatly stroked by the Aids epidemic which has killed many and made many children orphans. Our fellowship is the only church in this community. It started as a home fellowship in my residence before others were converted and joined. It was a real battle at the time this fellowship started. The elders of the village never wanted it and they did every possible thing to stop it, ev en tr ied to take my li fe to stop the preaching of the gospel. But they failed. The Bible says in Isaiah 59:19, "When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the LORD shall lift up a standard against him." And I John 4:4 says, "Greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world." When we recognize the reality of God’s word in these chapters the devil is no match for us. Today we have about 500 in our fellowship. The love in our fellowship in another thing that made the elders to relent in their fight against us, even some of them have been converted. Three years ago we started an orphanage home where children without parents and support are cared for. We have 28 children in the home. 15 of these children’s parents have died from aids. Our love and support for these orphans is a surprising issue to the elders. It is amazing the way God has met the demand of the orphans and other invalid persons in our midst. The finan c ial statue of the people here are very low due to unemployment. They do farming work not for commercial purposes but for life sustaining using manual labor and crude equipment like cutlasses and hoe. Only the government and few wealthy individuals have mechanize farming here. I am writing to request for a K.J.V. study Bible. Either a Thompson Chain Reference Bible or Matthew Henry’s Study Bible for my use. It is helpful to study and research. I also long to have a Strong’s Exhaustive Bible Concordance. These items are expensive here. My wife needs a Giant Print Bible due to her reading stress of small letter words. On behalf of our converts we need about 18 Giant print Bibles for our members who cannot afford to buy Bibles.and christain books, In our fellowship about 400 people have never had a Bible to read on their own. Used Bibles will also be helpful. In our orphanage home we need items like clothes, shoes, and children toys. Children education items are also necessary. We are also planning to send some of these children at least to primary school when God provides finances. "But ye, beloved, building up yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life." Jude 20:21.
