newsletter Jan 18, 2009

Dear Friends,

This is our first newsletter of 2009 to you. We trust you had a wonderful time of rest and celebration during the festive season. May 2009 be a very significant and blessed year as you walk with Jesus.

Our 2nd CPx (church planting school) kicks off in February with 47 students. We're so glad that almost half of the students are black Africans God has send to be equipped to make Jesus and the church of Jesus relevant to Africa! There IS hope for Africa!

Family - As a family we're standing in faith that our financial support base will grow – We're trusting the Lord for additional people to partner with us financially on a monthly basis in the calling God has on our lives.

Nelis plans to fulfil a lifelong dream this year by running the Comrades ultra-marathon (89km) in May and also to finish his studies by July.

Inesa will continue with her amazing calling to home school Tanya (Grade 4) & Stefan (Grade 1). The kids really excelled in all areas last year and we're very encouraged by it.

We feel priviledged in walking with you on the journey in making disciples that simply live Jesus. May Jesus fill you heart with fresh wonder about Himself and may you grow to know Him more and more this year.

Love
Nelis, Inesa, Tanya & Stefan
