Letter from Rhodesia

Ingwenya Mission
P.O. Bembesi
Rhodesia
14th November 1973

Dear Friends,

As we draw near the end of another year we would seek to give thanks to the Lord for His many benefits to us. We have been helped and we have been protected. We would particularly thank the Lord for His mercy in restoring Rev. A. Ndebele to health and strength. We would also thank Him for the sending of labourers into this work. We expect Rev. D. Ross and family to join us soon D.V.; Miss Martin has replaced Miss Graham. We are still hoping for a replacement for Miss K. M. Macaulay.

Pupils who have for years been under the constant sound of the Gospel will be leaving us in December; some will not be in contact again with the pure preached Gospel. But we would pray that the Word which they have heard would follow them. Also we would wish that they might be able to find suitable positions of employment or further education where such are restricted.

The cuts in fuel affecting the rest of the world also affect us. In view of a programme of building planned for this coming year (D.V.) we pray that this will not seriously hinder the work affecting Mbuma Mission and the secondary school at Ingwenya.

Communion services will be observed on the last Sabbath of the month (D.V.) at Nkai — January; Zenka — February; Ingwenya — March.

We would ask for the Lord’s blessings on these occasions.

Yours sincerely,

THE STAFF
