Mission Update: Project Samuel Zambia
Greetings, Church Family!
We’re excited to share the latest update from Project Samuel Zambia. Over the past month, God has been doing incredible things, and we want to keep you informed about the wonderful work happening in Zambia. Here’s a glimpse of what has been happening:
Monthly Highlights:
-
Safari Experience for the Children: Two days before Christmas, a long-awaited dream came true as we took the children of the project on a safari trip. It was their first time seeing African animals, and the joy on their faces was priceless. This experience was not just a fun outing but also a powerful reminder of God’s creation and His love for every part of it.
-
Christmas Celebration: Christmas Day was filled with joy and celebration. The children opened stockings and gifts, and we all came together to share a birthday cake for Jesus. It was a beautiful time of fellowship and reflection on the true meaning of the season.
Prayer Requests:
Please join us in praying for the following:
-
Spiritual Growth: Pray that our project children will not only know who Jesus is, but that they would come to know Him in a deep, personal way. We believe that transformation comes through a personal encounter with Christ.
-
Building Project: We are beginning the process of developing housing for our older boys. Pray for God’s guidance and provision as we move forward with this important project. Pray also for the right people to mentor and guide these young men as they transition into adulthood.
-
Vehicle Provision: We are in need of a smaller, reliable vehicle to help transport the children and staff more efficiently. Pray for God’s provision in this area.
-
Students: We are especially lifting up our students—both university students and high school students preparing for exams. Please pray for wisdom, focus, and academic success.
Ministry Impact:
Having our university students back home for Christmas was a source of great joy and encouragement. These young men and women have grown up in the project, and now they are pursuing their own dreams and studies. It’s such a blessing to see them flourishing and walking in the paths that God has laid before them.
We are reminded that the core of our ministry is to be family to those who have no family. Watching the children laugh, worship, and enjoy one another’s company during the holidays reminded us that this is what we are called to do: walk alongside them, love them, and guide them in their journey with Christ.
Thank you for your continued prayers and support. Your partnership is making a tangible difference in the lives of these children and families. Let’s continue to pray that God will guide us in every step of this mission, and that His love will continue to spread through the work being done in Zambia.
God bless you all!
