Off to Ethiopia, Kenya, South Africa and Australia

One never knows what he will see in Africa!

Always a surprise around the corner.

You have got to have a great sense of humor!

On February 6th Bill took off to Ethiopia for the annual conference in Yirgacheffe, where the Hardings ministered for years and raised their family. Others will be joining Bill to minister at the conference where they are anticipating an estimated thirty thousand people for four days. The purpose of this conference is to celebrate the Golden Aniversary (50 years) of Bible schools in the district and the primacy of the study of the Word of God. The Harding Bible School is the largest one in the area.  This takes place February 9-12.

On the way to Yirgacheffe, there are other great opportunities for ministry.

Grace will join Bill in Kenya for the rest of the trip. In Kenya, we visit some SIM missionaries and debrief with people.

From there, it’s on to Cape Town, South Africa where we will visit our son, Drew, his wife Janna and their five girls. We will be attending other meetings in that nation.

From there, we fly to Sydney, Australia where Bill will be speaking at Capernwray Bible School. We will be visiting our son, Ryan, his wife Melissa and their three. We arrive back home in early March.

Please pray for the following:

  • Safety in all the travel as we circumnavigate the earth.
  • For The Spirit of God to do His thing in great power.
  • That God would use us to encourage his global church as we open the Word of God and declare His glory
  • That God would prepare the hearts of those thousands to receive what He desires for them.
  • That God would make us holy, humble instruments of His grace in gospel demonstration and gospel proclamation.

There will be thousands upon thousands of young people at the conference. Specifically pray for them to come to a knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ in a personal way.
