A Belated Happy New Year to all our family and friends! We kind of feel that the year started and we somehow fast forwarded to March!
Here are some of our THANK YOU'S TO THE LORD for January - March 2022:
That we could have a great time away at the Kruger National Park in January - we did a road trip (4500 km in 10 Days ...) going to the Kruger (something we wanted Jamie to experience as he loves animals and Jordz and Nate speak about it often). We also spent a night with Bhuti and Jann and their boys at the J-Life House in Heidelberg and 4 nights with John's family on their farm which was great.
That Jordz is back at university in person (studying Social Work), Nate is in Grade 12 - his final year of school! He had his Matric Dance (Prom) last weekend which he really enjoyed! Jamie is happy in Grade 3.
That we were able to get away as a couple for 4 nights in early February which we really enjoyed - so good to have time to chat and go for walks and meals together.
That we could host our J-Life Lead Team and Regional Leaders in Cape Town for a week in February. We were able to use our home as the venue and had great times speaking through Vision for 2022 and making sure that we were all on the same page. The Lord blessed us with great unity and positive time together.
For our continued health and the health of our team across the continent
For the many encouraging stories that are coming from all over the continent as people are faithful to MAKE DISCIPLES who MAKE DISCIPLES who ....
For great people that the Lord has placed around us a family and ministry - for prayer partners and financial donors
As we continue to look to the Lord for 2022 in a world that appears to be more and more out of control - we pray that we will bring HOPE as we know that the Lord
will ultimately triumph. Please be in prayer for Josiah Venture (one of our alliance organisations in the Concentric Disciplemaking movement that J-Life is part of). They are based in Czech Republic and are very involved in helping with the crisis in the Ukraine - pray for much wisdom and provision for them as they seek to live out 1 John 2: 6.
Should the Lord stir you to assist in any way - please go to their website so see how you can help - they are an integrous organisation. www.josiahventure.com
With love and many thanks
John Lorna Jordz Nate and Jamie
