…”Oh, that you would bless me and enlarge my territory…” – 1 Chronicles 4:10a

One of our discipleship pastors, Joseph planted a church in Warkar last Sunday. Before then he had been going house to house to mobilize and evangelize the people. When he shared about planting a church there, the people of Warkar were very excited.

After praying over it speaking to them they came to an agreement of where the church will be, the young men and women participated in clearing the bush.

After they had completed all this work he reminded them that the following day they should come to church. On Sunday, the first service, there were about 40 people in the congregation.

He preached from the book of Matthew 28:19-20 where Jesus said, “Go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit”. He encouraged them that when they believe in Jesus they have to follow him. He told them that God is calling out for people who are willing to go out and win souls.

Teaching from the book of Exodus 32:1, Joseph said that when the people saw that Moses was so long in coming from the mountain, they gathered around Aaron and asked him to make gods who would go before them because they did not know what had happened to Moses. He encouraged the people that they should turn away from some of their traditions such as witchcraft which is a form of slavery and turn to worship of the true God by repenting and turning to Jesus.

Please keep Joseph and this young congregation in your prayers.
