You have been praying for Meh Mor and Martina, key leaders among the Karenni people group. We have been grateful to see both of them choosing to remain with us and continue in the work of making disciples here. Praise God for this!
è Pray that Meh Mor and Martina will grow stronger in their faith and love of the Lord and that he would be the motivator of their lives on mission.
Earlier this year, whole families of Karenni people expressed interest in following Christ and making disciples after hearing from Meh Mor and Martina. We shared this with you at the time. Praise God for this also!
è Pray for the Karenni people
1. that they will grow strong in the Lord as individuals and as a redemptive community of believers
2. be protected from the enemy
3. and that a Karenni leader will be raised up to continue the movement
Since then, Meh Mor has joined our team and she and her discipler, Hannah (team member), have been teaching and leading the Karenni community, seeking key leaders among these people who will catch the vision as well and take on that leadership role. The Karenni women, especially, have been faithful and growing in the Spirit. But the men have not been able to identify themselves with Christ or with the work God has been doing due to the lack of a male leader.
Two days ago, however, three Karenni men gave their lives to the Lord!!! (see the pictures below!) God worked out the timing and circumstances perfectly for a brother from Africa who was here for the training to share with them and they were ready to receive. Wow! Praise, praise the Lord!
è Please pray for these three new believers!
1. Na Reh (blue) had never heard about Jesus before. You can see the joy on his face in his new life with Christ. He is calling his family together Sunday night to hear the gospel. Pray for this time, that Na Reh's family will follow the Lord and that Na Reh will become a great spiritual leader among his people.
§ Pray for Xavier, team member who will be discipling Na Reh and speaking to his family Sunday night, that he will be filled with the Spirit, and have wisdom to know how to lead Na Reh and Deh Reh also.
2. Deh Reh (brown stripes), young father, shyer than Na Reh. Pray that he will also grow strong in the Lord and become a bold leader of his family and among his people.
3. Grandfather (hat, sorry, forgot his name), a friend of Na Reh and Deh Reh, will be moving Sunday evening to a different state. Pray that the Holy Spirit will supernaturally lead him and connect him with other believers to disciple him where he is going.
