Tenga Outreach

Greetings,

We had a great night in Tenga. Upon arriving with some of the ECC workers we begun visiting house to house to invite them to the Jesus film. We had been given the approval by the local government to show the film and they also helped promote it by posting a sign in the center of their village, were they hold there community meetings. There are 410 families in this village, approximately 2000 people in total. There are no evangelical churches in this community. There are two traditional churches and two cults.
Like usual the evening started with singing, and a little dance. The film went well and around 50 people came forward to accept Christ after word, but only 12 came to our first Bible study today. Please be praying for these people. The traditional worship is very powerful in this village and hard to break away from. Thank you for your prayers; we will not know how much they helped until we’re in heaven. You should find some photos below, I’m sorry but they are all from earlier in the day before nightfall (therefore there are not many people in them). There are also some photos of the first Bible study. We will be holding two Bible studies there per week until its time to start a church.

In Christ,
Nathan
