We bring you greetings in the wonderful name of our Lord Jesus Ohrisx, and we give thanks to God for each one of you, for your faith in Him,
your undying love for the brethren, your conoern for those who are lost, and your fellowship in sharing with our labors for Him,

BIBLE SURViir (myself), THE GOSPEL- OP MATTiiEW (Jim aolomon), and HOW TO
PREPARE LESSONS (A1 Zimmerman). 'The students are eiitn.usiastic about th.' classes, 2 were baptized at lifuleui recently, 2 ..ore are to be baptize.this week. Last month a young man (Alfred) came to accept Christ at Macassar, and a new couple from that townsnip have rec jutly started attending classes. Some of the students walk long distaioes, some arrive by traxn or bus, all are excited about the Word of God. I have also appreciated the opportunities to bring lessons and sermons
at Polo Road as well as to assist in one of their cottage meetings, I.

The Oape Bible Seminary is now entering its third term with classes on

this way people are reached who do not normally attend church.
Polo Road on the book of REVELATION.

Lord

willing, beginning this Tuesday, I ^-ri-ll be bringing weekly lessons ai.


Because of the great interest of the folk from Macassar we have movec the classes there from Mfuleni, though Al and I do stop first at Mi
to pick up the brethren there.
Last month Brother Zimmermaa and I travelled north to .i.3hton where -

brought a lesson on TEt-iPTATIGN, and I brought a message on THE JUDG.^i-L; There were 3 who came forv^ard to accept Christ, Later this month, Lo^*'
willing,, we shall be going east to Riviersonderend to bring lessons a-.-n
messages there.

I have also had several opportunities at the place where I work during the day (Farmer's Co-op) to witness for Christ and speak about the woii cf God. One of the Directors has suggested that I bring weekly Bible Lessons to the employees, and I hope to start these soon,

Nancy has had the opportunity to witness to our insurance agent who io_
a Jew. He mentioned that there seemed to be a spirit in our home wnlclj he did not usually find in the homes he called on, and ine waited an

explanation.

She said, "It is Jesus Christ, and he is your Messiah."

She went on to explain to him about the coming of the Son of God, and gave him a New Testament in modern english to read. He phoned me at work the other day and said he was fascinated to read it and to see the many ways in which Jesus fulfilled Oln Testament precedes. I cannot help but believe that the day is already dawning when many of
the Jews shall turn to day that will bej Jesus as the Obxist. Nhat a great and wonderfu}

Timothy (8) accompanied us to a service at j.-ifuleni last Lord's Day, lie brought and object lesson on BEING THANkPBL. Brother Mtutu said, "I
have been a Christian for many years. _I have axperlenced many blessing; in that time, "One"of the greatest blessings I have had is the blessing

I have had today

to hear Timothy speak."

Timothy spent a night


One thing

with Grandma this week.

He forgot to pack his tooth-brush.

he did not forget to pack

a Bible Story book.

He is preparing his

next laesou for the brethren at Mfuleni.

Many today are filled with despair. World events and the convulsions of the earth itself speak to them of the end of the world. That is oo.-;

way to look at it, but to the Christian they are the birth pangs of
the New Heaven and the New Earth.

May God bless you,

Dear Brethren:

46304

We greet you in the wonderful name of our precious Lord Jesus Christ. May you always be conscious of his grace, and may your hearts be filled with His peace v/hich passes all understanding. Our hearts go out in thanksgiving to God who has blessed us to have you working with us as partners in the gospel through your prayers and support of our labors. As you can see above we are moving to a different house. The rent is about $40 less, and the location is about midvray betvjeen the areas
where our classes and services are held.

Brother Simmerman and I with my mother and family recently made a trip to Riviersonderend (about 100 miles east of Cape Tovrn) for a teaching

and preaching service.

The brethren cane from as far as Ashton, and

we appreciated the opportunity of fellov/ship with them.


Last month we travelled to Swellendan (150 miles east) for a wedding,

and next week, Lord willing we shall be going to Her.ianus (60 miles east on the sea-coast) for lessons ind messages. We trust in tlie Lord to journey to Port Elizabeth and East London for extended lessons with
the brethren in those areas (about 500 & 700 miles east of Cape Tovm), during the first half of October.

A young African lady came forward to give her life to the Lord Jesus this month, and was baptized in a nearby river. We have also started Sunday evening services with the Molatoes in Macassar, and there is a
very good response to these.

Our Cape Bible Seminary classes continue each week with lessons on

BIBLE SURVEY, MATTHEW, and PRINCIPLES of EDUCATION. Next term. Lord willing, our classes shall center on THE PENTATEUCH, CHURCH in the
SCRIPTURES, and PRINCIPLES of LOGIC.

Life on earth is so short. Brother Mtutu of Gugialetu tells of two of his family who died last week one tiirough illness and one by a car
accident. Brother Zimmerman tells of a Bantu woman and her husband
She has 7 children. Terrorists run TA'ild killing

attacked by thugs in Johannesburg leaving the husband dead and her in


a state of shock.

innocent people and few even try to stop them.

But God is not asleep.

His eyes are constantly watching over His ovm, and the life of the
Holy Spirit which He gives to them can never be destroyed.

Finally Brethren, may I ask you earnestly to pray for Southern Africa today. The forces of Ungodliness and Anti-Christ have already taken over Mozambique and Angola, and are now putting the squeeze on Rhodesia
and South A-r-4^a^-s4nrgt-he-i--r- -u-sual wea^H-sef--l-ie-s-a-nd-de-Ge^t-i-en-.

Many of the nations of the world, not knov;ing the truth, are blithely and ignorantly falling into their trap. But God still has His faithful
remnant, those v;ho refuse to bow down before the idols of covetousness,

and hatred, and the lust for power; those who look to Him in the quiet confidence of faith; and His kingdom, like leaven unseen by the human
eye, continues to grow.

On a Sunday night in Macassar, as my wife sits with a little African


child on her lap, and the congregation sings "There is Povrer in the Blood" as v/e partake together of the Lords Supper I am moved to report that in the midst of all the turmoil and strife the Family of God is
alive and well.

Your brother in Christ,

Brothers and sisters whom w# love in the Lord :.

As you kn.ow this is our 3rd term of service in South Africa, and we have been here on this trip since December, 1972 six years ago. It does not seem that long, but much
has been done both in the Port Elizabeth area and in the Cape Town area since then.

I was particularly glad to get a letter tnis week from Brother Leve in Port Elizabeth in which he says that he has organized an evangelistic team who are travelling with him to the various areas holding Preaching Rallies, for this is the very way I had done ray mission work with them while X was there. Hov/ good it is to see the brethren standing up and walkingi In the meantime many of you have been asking when we are coming -on furlough.' VJe have prayed about it, and do feel that the Lord is definitely leading in this decision. I approached the Farmers Co-op here where I work during the day, and the manager has granted me leave from November 13 thru' January 2. Ve are therefore making tentative plans to visit churches in the States during November and December of this year. Nox^ this is only 2 months away, so if it is to be we shall
have to move fast.

What we propose is this that marked TRAVEL F'UND. We will 1. Airfare for Nancy, 2. Updating our income
3.

you please send funds immediately to our Forwarding Agent need a total of 458)000.00 for the trip. This includes: .. myself>..Sandra-Timothy " tax for tax clearance on passport.

House rent during the period of our absence, Other accounts which will come due while xTO're away.

Living expenses while in the States, as isrell as our- means of travel to our supporting churches we leave in the hands of the Lord, and you His people.
We regret that the time will-be so-short, but-14 is-just-not possible for ua to leavefor an extended time. Lord willing the Cape Bible Seminary completes its second year of classes in November, and will be starting the the third year in January of-1979,- so I shall have to matce a, rapid,, tour of churches in-INDIANA, ILLINOIS, lOvVA,
MINNESOTA AND WISCONSIN and trust that those further afield will understand .

V/e are excited about the Lord's work here in Cape Toxra, and rejoice in His leading. Please pray with us that He shall continue to bless and use our efforts for the glory
of His name.

May we also ask you at this time to please pray for Brother Bryce Morgan's mother. She is very ill and needs our prayers.
