Our South Africa Mission Team just left for the airport. Please keep them in your prayers.
This team represents the 3rd mission team sent out from PBC in 2009. We have already shared the Gospel in Alaska and Ukraine. The SA Team is composed of 11 members (2 from NC, 1 from VA Beach, and 8 from PBC).
I must admit that I was moved to great emotion as I sent them off. What a blessing to pastor a church that not only sees the need but is willing to go out and meet the need head on. This team will be working in the shack areas (squatter camps) around Johannesburg. 85% of the people that live in this area are in poverty and many are dying of AIDS. Our team will be:
1) Ministering to the local church body
2) Working with kids at the squatter camps
3) Ministering to the lost > home-to-home in the camp
We trust that God will use this team in great ways. His anointing is already upon them! We also trust that He will give them the words to share, the things to pray, and the ability to see His great power.
TEAM SOUTH AFRICA - "Set the world on FIRE!"
