Dear Praying Friends,
I. Ghana
A. Pastor Dare Olujomoye started the Fundamental Bible Baptist Church in Apremdo, Ghana
The land has been purchased and cleared. Footers have been dug and the block foundation is laid. Construction is ongoing, and the church building should be finished later this year. The current need is for $7,700 to finish the church building. God has provided Pastor Dare with a motorcycle. He needs a personal vehicle, and the church could use a bus to bring people in.
B. Pastor Frederick Aidoo started the Fundamental Baptist Church in Agona Nkwanta, Ghana
The land has been purchased, however, the paperwork is still being processed. There is a parsonage on this land and another building that will be converted into a church. The cost of renovations is currently unknown. The church is able to meet in the other half of the parsonage until the building is renovated. Pastor Frederick currently needs a motorcycle and a personal vehicle. He also needs a Bluetooth microphone/speaker. He is nearly losing his voice every time he preaches!
C. Pastor Augustine Amoah started the Fundamental Bible Baptist Church in Shama, Ghana
The Lord has provided the finances for two plots of land. We just found out this month that the landowners dishonored the contract and will not sell the land. So, the hunt for land begins anew. A tent is ready to be set up as soon as their land is purchased. Pastor Augustine is currently in need of a motorcycle and a personal vehicle.
II. Togo
A. Emmanuel Goungampo started the Bread of Life Baptist Church in Lome, Togo
Bro. Goungampo continues to pastor the church in Lome. He is also organizing soul-winning campaigns in villages and training more national men to pastor the church plants.
B. Immanuel Baptist Church in Wahala, Togo
Construction crews are being organized and the church building will be completed later this year. Bro. Goungampo is excited about this village of Wahala, which is two hours away from him, getting their church building built. Operation Light gave $5,000 for the purchase of the land and construction of a church building. Bro. Koffi Agroussaki is a graduate of Bro. Goungampo’s Bible institute and will be ordained later this year. Bro. Koffi then plans to pastor the Immanuel Baptist Church in Wahala.
C. Bro. Kossi Buame in Lome, Togo
Operation Light provided $1,000 for Bro. Kossi to have a motorcycle to use for the ministry. He visits villages, gives out the Gospel, and sees people saved regularly. He usually preaches in a couple of village churches on Sundays. Bro. Goungampo states “he is very dedicated to the cause of the Gospel of Christ.”
Sincerely,
David Crews, Director
