Donate to Phinehas and Deborah

Phinehas and Deborah are in a creative access location working with local believers to equip leaders, facilitate church planting and build gospel relationships. They are working primarily with three local tribes, reaching out to them with the message of Jesus.

They were called to serve in global mission in 2003 after serving in their home church for many years. They and their two teenage daughters love Jesus and are walking in His grace in response to His faithfulness to them over the years.

The challenges of their ministry include not only reaching out to the unreached with the gospel but also leading teaching and discipleship classes to help equip local church leaders to effectively lead, serve and plant churches in their home country.

The Rendille live in the Kaisut Desert east of Lake Turkana, northern Kenya as semi-nomadic pastoralists. Praise God that five books of the Rendille Old Testament have been completed and were dedicated this past Saturday. The dedication was for the audio and written form of these books. Pray many will read and listen to these books and believe the message. Praise for the over 100 adults who have graduated from the Rendille literacy program as well. These graduates now have the ability to read and write in their own language. Through the courses, they have heard a clear presentation of the gospel. Praise the Lord for those who have already come to saving faith and pray that many more will come to faith through reading the word of God.

Kay* leads a medical team in the Indian Ocean Islands. Pray for a lady she is getting to know called Holly*, who used to be a believer but fell away due to the religious persecution she was experiencing. She declined an invitation to meet together and watch The Jesus Film with Kay and some friends at Easter but said that she still believes in her heart. Pray that God will provide more opportunities for Kay to talk with and support her in her faith and that God will draw her back to Him and to fellowship with the local body of believers.

Creative Access

We use ‘Creative Access’ to refer to nations, areas or ministries where there is great hostility towards Christianity and where traditional ‘missionary work’ is not possible. Workers, therefore, need to be ‘creative’ in how they proclaim the liberating news of Jesus Christ. In North Africa alone, 200 million people from 472 unreached people groups are unreached with the gospel. That’s 200 million people unknowingly heading for a Christ-less eternity. LEARN MORE

Church Development

We hope that our church development work with local African churches will lead them to be centres of hope and love that draw more people to Jesus. LEARN MORE
