Bro. Louw--Missionary

Have any of you ever heard of the Louw family, missionaries to Namimbia?
We had them at our church Sunday morning, and I was very impressed with
their spirit and presentation.

It wasn't professional, not even any neat animal hides or primitive musical
instruments for show and tell.  They basically testified and showed a short,
homespun video presentation of the fledgling churches that are now experiencing
great revivals.

The Church of Namimbia began with a single Jewish restaurant owner, who, along
with several Jewish friends, studied the Scriptures and were convinced of the
Gospel message.  They were anxious to be baptised, and the Jewish man contacted
a Muslim friend with a swimming pool.  Praise God!  Today, they are all
Christians, baptised in Jesus' name and filled with the Holy Ghost (that
includes the Muslim man).

Their children were also very impressive.  Both children (probably ages 12
and 16) testified about the joy of being missionaries.  They have lived
through two civil wars and some very adverse political conditions, but
there were no regrets.

Truly, we were honoured to be in the presence of labourers in the field.  They
were very precious people, and we were mightily blessed to share in their
great testimony of God's power and the continuance of the great Gospel of the
Lord Jesus Christ.

Remember them in your prayers.

All Honour to Christ Jesus, our Holy God!
