We have been in Mozambique for two months now, and we have really been enjoying all that the Lord has called us to. Time seems to be going by so quickly as we have been involved in so much already and our days are usually very full. A few days after we arrived a team of 17 YWAMers came from their base in South Africa. They were here for almost 3 weeks. During this time we did 11 evangelism outreaches. This is when we go out into different villages and show the Jesus Film, preach, and pray for the sick. Sometimes we just go out for the night if the village is close to the base. If the location is further out we take tents and stay out in the bush for a few nights. Throughout these 11 events we conservatively saw 500 people make a decision for Christ and we witnessed countless healings. We saw God heal the mute, blind, lame, and sick. We were also able to go to some unreached places. Three new churches are in the works to be planted in those areas. After the YWAM team departed we began to get all of our practical day to day things in order. We set up our house a little more to our liking. We also started our language learning. Every day a young man comes over for two hours and does his best to teach us. We enjoy having fun with him. The last two Sundays I have been able to preach. The first Sunday our family went to a village. We had an amazing morning and saw God move mightily and many were healed I also just received a testimony from that morning that a baby that was very sick had been completely healed. Nothing that the doctors did could help but the baby was healed in Jesus' name. We have also started to do more outreaches. We're still building our team and working out the bugs, but God's grace is revealed continually as many people are making decisions to follow Christ, and many are healed and delivered. We always make a point to take the whole family on these outreaches so that Tawnya has opportunity to serve and minister and Lincoln and Haley always have the opportunity to see the hand of God moving. The other area that has opened for us to minister is within the youth of the base church. We meet with these kids every Friday and share with them the kingdom principles and equip them for the work. We are hoping that a lot of our evangelism team will be built from the youth. We have already taken a couple of them on outreach with us which they greatly enjoyed. Tawnya and the kids have been doing very well. We are enjoying the strength of the Lord within our family. Everyone has been very happy and healthy. The weeks to come will be very busy for us. We will be hosting Kenzie and Laura who are good friends and former members of the Faith Tabernacle youth group. They will be coming in a week and staying with us for three weeks. We have many outreaches planned and expect to stay busy with the girls. During the time that they are here I will also be taking a quick trip to Maputo, which is Mozambique's capital. I will be visiting the U.S. Embassy to get a new passport since one of the city municipal offices lost mine. This has been a ridiculous situation as we had to work with the police and the court. We won the case against the municipal office so they have to pay all my expenses for a new passport and visa and pay for my airfare for the trip. Now the big question is going to be if they will actually pay. The likelihood of them having that much money is very low... Please continue to pray for all the ministry and expansion of the Kingdom through all the evangelism and discipleship. Also, we appreciate your prayer for strength in our family, health, and protection. Again, thank you all for your support in all the forms it comes. We are so grateful for God's calling on us and all that are walking along side us and sharing in the reward of the Harvest. We love you all. God Bless! The Weaver Family
