Rex and Ruby have served in a variety of creative access locations, seeking to share the gospel with those who have yet to hear it, and currently lead teams in sensitive countries. After a few months of prayer and research, they have now developed an idea to sell t-shirts and sweatshirts online in the UK, printed with a simple faith message. These could help people here ‘wear their faith with confidence’ and potentially start spiritual conversations. All the proceeds of any sales will go towards training and encouraging other leaders in Africa. Please pray that through this new initiative, the Lord will provide for and help mobilise new leaders.  As Rex and Ruby have just finished their sabbatical, please ask that they would remember what the Lord has taught them about sabbath rest, and for wisdom as they counsel people and get busy with meetings. They are thankful that technology enables them to keep connected with many people, but it can be hard to develop deeper trust and understanding with those they support.

Rex and Ruby have served in a variety of creative access locations, seeking to share the gospel with those who have yet to hear it, and currently lead teams in sensitive countries. They have been facilitating a year-long leadership development cohort of thirteen emerging leaders of five nationalities, currently serving in five different countries in North Africa. This started in January with travel to North Africa and will conclude in November with a final five day in-person time together. Praise God for the opportunities Rex and Ruby have had to see young leaders grapple with challenging heart issues, seek the Spirit’s leading, and commit to walking more honestly and closely with Him. Another encouragement is that the Lord is bringing more workers to the harvest: fifteen adults have either arrived or are on their way in the next few months and seven others are seriously exploring whether they should move with their families to the field. Please pray that these men and women would continue to grow in their love and knowledge of God, know his guiding, and be used to disciple others.

Thank the Lord that they have been able to visit the 8 teams they are responsible for in the past year. Praise the Lord for the hundreds of seeds of truth that have been planted through these teams, and that there are local people now reading the Word and gathering with believers who have never done so before! Ask the Lord that, as those seeds are watered by the workers he will give growth. Pray that those who show interest in the word and knowing about Jesus, would not be distracted but embrace the Light of the World.
