Update on Togo refugees in Ghana

This is the latest from our brothers and sisters from Togo who are now refugees in Ghana. I was pleasantly surprised to receive this letter from Udeme. Thank God they are safe and the church is thriving more than ever in the area.

Greetings to you in the love of Christ. May this finds you and your family doing well. The fellowship here is growing, as we continue to keep the Lord Jesus the centre of our fellowship with each other, serving Him as the objective, His glory as our goal in all things.

We have recently ended an outreach meetings in a village here in Ghana. More than 18 people denounced voodoo & idol worshipping and accept the Lord Jesus Christ during those meetings. We are starting a new home fellowship in that village, please pray for success as we continue to nurture these new converts to the family of God.

Things here are still hard at the present, there are several needs among the brethren here. By faith, the trials are only blessings while abiding in Him. There is never reason for complaining, only the giving of thanks. It is true that God uses our time of suffering and difficulties to remodel, filter and soften us into His likeness! So that we may deminish, and Christ might increase!! The centre of all these, is that Christ might be all in us, and have all the glory!

You are always in our thoughts and prayers. May we continue to grow in the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ. Extend our greetings, love and thanks to your family and to the brethren there. We look forward to hearing from you.

Your brother,
Udeme & the brethren here
