Groups joining us and other interesting information.
Africa, Part 3 (other regions will follow)
African
Region –
1. In Niger, papers were submitted to
the
government so that the authorities in that country can duly recognize the United
Pentecostal Church. As reported in the Africa Revival News of February 22, 2003
the UPCI is now officially recognized by the government that is located in a
country that is 98% Muslim. This is a miracle! In 2002 it was reported that
FOR THE FIRST TIME tracts were printed in the Hausa language to reach the twenty
million people that speak that language in Niger and Nigeria.
2.
In Africa Revival New Briefs of August 2002 Brother Sully reports in Burkina
Faso that he recently baptized a Trinitarian pastor and his wife and
is baptizing his members. His church is now in fellowship with us and that brings
the total of UPCI churches in the capital of Burkina Faso to 4!!!! This is French
speaking Africa where we need missionaries.
3. Also reported in the Revival News from Africa on Feb 22, 2003, that a pastor
and 44 of his congregation have been baptized in Mozambique
and 39 more are ready to be baptized.
4 .
Lesotho, Brother K. informed us that four new groups have contacted
them and want to become part of the UPCI. Recently they were together with one
of these groups, which have 42 members, for a meeting and in it 7 received the
Holy Ghost. In another e-mail dated February 4, 2003, Brother K. states: The
Lord has opened a door for 3 new areas in the Freestate, South Africa. Pastor
G. T. is pastor of three churches: Ladybrand (115 people), Clocolan (111 people),
and Ficksburg (89 people). We are planning a super Sunday to baptize all three
congregations at the same time. They have accepted the Acts 2:38 message. Brother
K. further reports in October, 2003 that as a result of meetings with the Sartins
from Louisana 2 pastors and 3 congregations were baptized in Jesus name.
