Heart of the People

Friday we had a great day with the East District Supt. We got to know his heart and his passion for the people of Swaziland. He shared with us some of the greatest needs as far as building on his District. The communities have the workers but NO money to complete projects that have been started. One Church started building over 10 years ago and had to stop due to lack of funds. They have the foundation poured and the walls up but no roofing material or beams for the roof. If God should lay on your heart this project just contact BFC to see how you can become an answer to many of their prayers. The big problem we are seeing is that they start to build not counting the cost or budgeting ahead of time. Then when they run out of funds they stop. Pray for us as we work with people to help them plan ahead and have a plan ready before beginning a project. We have also been in contact with a young man that builds solar water pumps. This is also a great need. The community that our GO TEAM was working with has been without water for 7 years. How do you live without water. They also do not get much rain even in the rainy season. Oh the needs are so great but the greatest need in for the people to know and serve Christ. Continue to pray for us as we share the love of Christ.

Hey guys! I am reminded of the wise man who told a local pastor, "all building projects are demon possessed." We are different here. We don't start anything unless we know how much it will cost us, or our church. Perhaps people there have a bigger view of God, and trust the Lord to do. If it doesn't happen, the attitude is God's answer is not yet.
Love,
