Manja in Prison

Manja has been in prison for a long time now.

He is keeping faith and being used of God in that prison - but please continue in urgent prayer for his release.

Latest news of Manja Tamang

10/26/2006: Nepali Missionary Still Joyful in Prison (GFA Report)

Even being in prison for about five years on false murder charges has not stopped Manja Tamang from making the most of his circumstances and daily living out his faith. Prior to his arrest, Manja had an active and growing ministry in Nepal. Today Manja continues to have a vibrant outreach—but now it is in a prison instead of a mountain village. He has led several fellow prisoners to Christ and has regularly held small group meetings where people have eagerly gathered to learn more about Jesus. Manja has also been able to further his education and now teaches some classes in the prison—another opportunity for people to see his joy and ask about the hope that is in him. Rati, Manja's wife, shares his love for the Lord and his passion for taking the Gospel to some of the most unreached. Although she dearly misses her husband and has struggled at times to hold her emotions, Rati continues to proactively serve the Lord and counts it a privilege to do so. She teaches at a GFA Bridge of Hope center where she pours her life into kindergarten children, reaching them with the Good News. She also joins other teachers for evangelistic outreach in their local community several nights a week. Such outreach is a wonderful blessing for the local pastor, as it extends his ministry and opens doors for the Gospel. GFA's Nepal leader, Narayan Sharma, believes it is likely that Manja will be released in a few years' time and thinks it wisest not to try another appeal for an earlier release at this time, given the current uncertainty of political conditions. So for now, Manja remains in his prison cell. But he and Rati trust in the Lord, and they know that every hardship they face now will be worth it in the light of eternity.

Prayer for Indonesia

With the threat of the volcano and the devastating earthquake- and the country still recovering from the tsunami last year - we must pray that God will have mercy on that nation. pray that througfh these events there may come a clear word form God and that the cause of the gospel will prosper there.

Please pray for my visit to Indonesia later this month, that through it others may be blessed.

Answered prayer!

Prayer partners will be delighted to learn that Becky - the wife of our Door to Door Evangelist - Tim Serjeant, has given birth to twins!

Over a year and more we asked our prayer partners and friends to pray that they might be granted a child. As you can see - they have received a double blessing!



Becky with Gabriel Paul - born 2 a.m 4th Feb 2006


Tim with Thomas Frederick - born shortly after 2 a.m. 4th Feb 2006

Praise God with us for answered prayer - and pray now for Tim and Becky that they may have all needful grace as parents and that these little ones may grow up in the knowledge and love of God in Jesus Christ. If the Lord delays His coming, may they grow up to be much used servants of God in their lives - to His glory and praise. Amen.

Door to Door Mission responses

DOOR TO DOOR MISSION
www.doortodoormission.org

Give thanks to God for the very encouraging initial response to support the work of this new Mission. We are trusting to begin supporting up to three Evangelists.

Chris Gadd who has just been made redundant by home Evangelism, has chosen to work as a self-employed Itinerant Evangelist. He lives at Steet in Somerset. he is married with three children. The car he was using belonged to Home Evangelism - so he had to return it. But already he has been given a second-hand car by a supporter!
Pray that all his needs and those of his family will be met.



Graham Croft also is one who has been made redundant by H.E.
He lives in Bristol. He is married with grown-up children.
He has been asked to work as a full-time Evangelist with a church in his area.
More news about that when we have it.




Tim Serjeant is married to Becky, who is expecting twins.
He too has been made redundant by H.E.
He lives near Dorchester in Dorset. He too has chosen to work as a sel-employed Evangelist. He at present works with five churches in Dorset and Devon. He has opted to work as one of the Mission Evangelists and the Door to Door Mission is seeking regular supporters to enable him to continue and expand his work. He is available to work with other churches and will come and speak to church groups about door to door evangelism.

If you wish to give to the support of any one of these, make sure you make his clear when you send a donation. Donations to D2D Mission should be made out to "The Network Trust"


THESE MEN ALL NEED OUR EARNEST PRAYERS.

Frederick. D2Dm Secretary.
