November 2013 Newsletter
Dear Friends and Family,
Greetings from Ndola! First, we would like to thank all of our supporters for the gifts given over the past month. By God’s grace our needs are being met, and we are very grateful for your generosity in helping to meet those needs. We are also thankful for your prayers. We know that our heavenly Father hears and answers your prayers, so please continue to intercede for us.
2013 TCCA Graduates
Since the school year at TCCA follows the calendar year, some of my students will be graduating soon. As I’ve talked to them about their plans for the future it’s been exciting to hear how God is already preparing the way for them. Here are some of their stories:
- One will likely become the pastor of a growing church in Lusaka, Zambia’s capital city
- One will soon be moving to pioneer missions work in a different country
- One is considering graduate studies before returning to missions work outside Zambia
- One has accepted a pastorate in a town near Ndola
- One completed an internship at his denomination’s bible school
- One is waiting patiently for his first placement but is being groomed for a leadership position within the denomination
While our graduating friends will be dearly missed, we’re eager to see how God will use them beyond TCCA. Meanwhile, a new class of students is preparing to join us. Some have already been accepted, but many are still completing the application process. Please pray that God will prepare the way for many students to join us next year.
Prayer Requests
In addition to TCCA’s graduating and incoming students, here are some prayer items:
- for my teaching ministry at TCCA
- for Kristina and the girls as they spend time with orphans and TCCA children
- for Anna, Sarah, and Katie’s home-schooling
- for John’s studies and his continued spiritual growth
- that God will continue to meet our needs according to the riches of His grace
Blessings in Christ,
Tim & Kristina Churchill
