AFRICANUS Report (English) – October 9, 2022

Greetings from the Motherland of Africa & the Mid-Atlantic US!
“Then I heard the voice of the LORD saying, ‘Whom shall I send?  And who will go for us?’  And I said, ‘Here am I.  Send me!'” (Isaiah 6:8)
Dear Kip, Elena, and FOMM Family,
Greetings from the Motherland!  Please pray for us as God is gathering the workers for an abundant harvest!  In Johannesburg, an award-winning South African actress has joyfully accepted the call to serve in the full-time ministry; the Evangelist of the Lagos Church, Bolaji Akinfenwa, had a fruitful trip to strengthen the remnant and develop plans for a new MERCYworldwide project in Freetown, Sierra Leone; and our Kampala Church is fighting through the religiosity of East Africa to make and baptize only true disciples!  God willing, several predictions will make it by next week.  Our brother Blaise has returned from 2022 SAMC and reports that 14 more precious souls were baptized in our French Africa churches!  Please pray for God to continue gathering more workers for an abundant harvest! (Matthew 9:38)
JOHANNESBURG, SOUTH AFRICA
Patrique and the Johannesburg sisters are excited to host their 2022 Women’s Day on October 29th!  The Keynote Speaker will be Tracy Harding, the Women’s Ministry Leader from Washington, DC!
A Joburg sister, Didi Ledwaba (left), was announced as a new Ministry Intern for the Joburg Church on Sunday!  Didi is an Honors student majoring in Film at the prestigious University of Witwatersrand (Wits), and turned down a permanent role at the award-winning show, “Generations,” so she can be more available to do the work of the LORD.  This talented sister also played a role in the new movie “The Woman King” featuring Viola Davis!
The LORD continues to bless our efforts on campus at the University of Witwatersrand (Wits) as we had 25 visitors at our Bible Talk on Thursday!  Please pray for God to keep “opening hearts” at this prestigious university as the next Evangelists and Women’s Ministry leaders are raised up the continent of Africa and beyond!
LAGOS, NIGERIA
Our brother Bolaji Akinfenwa (right), takes a picture with the Sierra Leone saints and children on a beautiful beach in Freetown!
Please pray as there is an opportunity to start a new MERCYworldwide project in Freetown by partnering with a principal who teaches children in a slum area! 
This is the only class in the school around the slum area that serves 10 young children.  God is giving us an opportunity to bring mercy to those who are in poverty!
KAMPALA, UGANDA
Kampala Evangelist Osas Atohengbe continues to preach the Word powerfully as this new mission team proclaims the truth across Uganda.  They currently have 22 moving studies and two predictions for next week!
Please pray for this exciting mission team to gather souls at Makerere University – the #5 ranked school in Africa – as they evangelize the “Pearl of Africa” (Uganda) and beyond!
The fields are ripe for harvest as we pray for God to multiply our efforts across the Motherland (churches in orange; remnant groups in yellow; light green for future plantings)!  Please pray for the Joburg Church as we are preparing for our 10X Missions Contribution on November 20th which will help support our 2023 plantings to Nairobi, Kenya, Lusaka, Zambia, and Accra, Ghana!  To God be the glory!
Please join us in prayer as we beg our Father in heaven for an abundant harvest in October – several predictions are scheduled for next week.  Thank you for your prayers as God does “even greater things” through our faith!  

Much love,

Andrew & Patrique
