To all who. love our Lord Jesus Christ i t is my earnest prayer that you will experience day by day more of His warmth, his kindness, his love, and the real deep down satisfying feeling that comes from knowing that things are O K between you and God because of what he did on the cross.
Tim and I took a trip to Port Elizabeth last month on the INTER-CAPE BUS. We rented a car and drove to Gelvandale for 3 days of teaching and preaching the Word of God. I encountered division, and even some opposition from some who wanted to know what "section" of the church I belonged to. I replied: "I don't belong to any particular section, I just belong to the church of Christ." One brother responded, "That's good enough for me," and I was allowed to preach. We baptized two in the afternoon, and at the evening service 12 people came forward, many asking for prayer that God would change their hardened hearts.

Even the brother who was to lead the Communion said, "I cannot lead in the Communion because I also need to repent and ask forgiveness. After the service the men gathered in a circle, holding hands and praying fervently for 2 solid hours as they were moved by the Spirit of God. One prayed: "Lord we have sat here as children tonight before your Holy Vford." Praise God for His mighty power!
Back in Cape Town at the Manenberg church of Christ where I am preaching 4 came to be baptized into the Lord. The baptisms were at Princess Vlei, and I had the opportunity to speak to them regarding our new life in Christ.

Timothy has now gone to the States with his mother and grandmother, and is presently staying with his uncle Howard Ganong at the Great Lakes Bible College, Lansing, Michigan. I am sending him a set of slides covering last year's work. He will be showing them to all our supporting churches. If you are not one of them but are interested to see the slides please contact him at 7850 Cloverhill Drive, Lansing, MICHIGAN 48917. It was again our privilege to have Brother Khota of Knysna, Co-chairman of our Convention Committee, with us in our home. He is currently working on a set of proposals which will drastically reduce the authority at present abused by some of our missionaries, and get them back to being just teachers and evangelists. At Manenberg I am now bringing a series of expository messages on the Epistles, while at our Outreach Meetings in Lentegeur I have just started a series of
lessons on the New Testament. Our Tuesday night cottage meetings in Brother Faniels home have got going this year with a series of lessons on CORINTHIANS.

The Zana family of Guguletu are moving to Bel-Har, and have asked me to hold Mid-week Bible Studies and Prayer meetings with them there. Please pray for
God's blessings on this new venture.

Our Thursday night Bible studies in Portlands continue the home of Brother Dunjua. Coming up at Easter time. meetings in KNYSNA, about 250 miles east of Cape Town, in Port Elizabeth and Uitenhage have already said they

on the book of ACTS in Lord willing, are special on the coast. The folk are planning to attend.

May God richly bless you with His grace, and strengthen you in His service.
Yours in the wonderful name of our Lord Jesus Christ,

We greet you in the name of Christ our Savior;

I have just completed a 39 page summary of Roland Allen's "Missionary Methods", and over 100 pages of an Afrikaans summary of James deForest Murch's "Christians Only." These books are much needed during this critical period of missionary work in South Africa
when the natives are growing restless under the yoke of continued white domination, both

in the political and in the religious spheres.

It is a time of growth, a time of reform,

a time of change; and it is of course our task to make that change as smooth, and as harmonious and orderly as possible. We have long taught about indigenous, independent local congregations, and our churches in tlie States have long since emerged from the
bondage of the UCMS. But most of our churches in South Africa are still under the control

of the MISSION in the east, and the 30 A.D. ORGANIZATION in the west, with all the denominational trappings of Constitutions, Superintendents, Conferences, Committees and

Chairmen.

Paul's approach to the people of his day was three-fold:


1. 2. 3. He proclaimed the gospel to them. He taught them the principles of the word of God. He trusted the Holy Spirit to guide them into all truth.

This is also my approach in all the places where I go, and God is blessing these efforts.
I apologize for a delay in sending the set of slides which I have compiled. I am now sending them over to Timothy who has now moved with his mother to their own place at the

following address:

1715^ Babcock, Eau Claire, WI. 54703.

Please contact him there if you

wish to see the slides.

Franklin Visser, now laboring among the Youth in Worcester, still calls me occassionally
to discuss problems, and ask for advice on his work.

We have commenced our new Tuesday evening Bible Studies at Bel-Har. Pray that God shall bless our outreach into this community. We are studying I CORINTHIANS. Brother James also preaches on the train on his way to work, while I occassionally give lessons to the
Council Workers at the Market while walking down to the Farmers Co-op.

Lord willing I shall be making a preaching and teaching trip to Knysna next month, and I
have also been contacted by Brother Miles Koeberg of Graaff Reinet, where we hope to bring some lessons as well.

The Manenberg congregation continues to make progress, and have recently started a Bible School under the leadership of John Dunjua. Their worship services are an absolute joy,
with each one taking part by way of testimony, scripture, song and prayer. My messages there at the moment center on the Book of HEBREWS, using the Afrikaans language. Mondays at LENTEGEUR our studies are on The Sermon on the Mount, with discussions and questions.

On Thursdays at PORTLANDS we are continuing our studies on the Book of ACTS, with extra theological lessons on PREACHING FROM THE OLD TESTAMENT, with James and John Dunjua.
When I arrive at the Co-op in the mornings I also have the opportunity to witness to our Security Guard as well as the cleaning woman, and I use my lunch hour for further study.

I wish to take this opportunity to personally thank Bryce and Judy who carry out the tasks of foirwarding agent so faithfully, as well as each of you who pray for me and support me.
Yours in tne mighty name of Christ Jesus our Lord,

It is a great joy.
Dearly beloved brethren,

to have our Brother Khota of Knysna

here in Cape Town with us after his recent trip to the TRANSKEI. He reports that 23 in Transkei have given their hearts to the Lord Jesus Christ and have been baptized into His name. It has been my privilege to meet together with Brother Fanie, Brother Dunjua, Brother Khota and other brethren for discussions on 2 CORINTHIANS, and GALATIANS, as well as studies on the RESTORATION MOVEMENT and comparative studies between the missionary methods of Paul in the New Testament and those of our day. We have recently been making concentrated efforts to make an evangelistic outreach into the ELSIES RIVER area. This has consisted in visiting in different homes to bring the gospel message, and challenge the people to repent and commit their lives
to the Lord. Many have come for prayer, but much still needs to be done.

Another area where we are now working is at BEL-HAR with midweek Bible studies, and last week a Sunday morning service. Yesterday one of our members there celebrated

her 21st birthday. "braaied" (roasted

It was done in the traditional way with a whole sheep being on an open fire).

At our Monday evening OUTREACH meetings in LENTEGEUR we have been continuing our Bible Lessons on the gospel of MATTHEW., and many have said that they look forward to
these regular studies.

In the mornings, on my way to the Farmer's Co-op, I stop at the Market and talk to the Council workers there. I have been taking them step by step through a series of

studies on the names of the Lord Jesus Christ. They appreciate these lessons, and even tell their families about them. My son Timothy is now working in Eau Claire, WI. If you want to see the recent slides on our work, please contact him at 1715^ Babcock.
We continue our Thursday evening studies at PORTLANDS on the book of ACTS, as well as Theological studies on "PREACHING FROM THE OLD TESTAMENT." I have now completed my Afrikaans summary of "CHRISTIANS ONLY" and am now doing it in English for translation into XHOSA. I am also preparing a summary of THE STRATEGIC GRASP OF THE BIBLE, as well
as a summary of the Bible itself, called "THE BASIC BIBLE."

The brothers at M7\NENBERG conduct their own services on alternate Sundays, but on the Sundays inbetween I am bringing messages on the Letters of PETER in Afrikaans. I

write the message on the blackboard during the early part of the service, while
testimonies are being given.

Finally brethren, please pray for us.

The work we are doing here is by no means easy,


Yet,

and often we face discouragement, disappointment, and even outright opposition.

knowing Him who has called us, we don't give up? for He has promised that the one who
endures to the end shall be saved. Pray for those among whom we labor, pray for Bryce and Judy Morgan working so faithfully behind the scenes, pray for all who undergird this ministry with their regular prayers and support. The grace of our Lord Jesus
be with you all.

There was a time when small cries were heard in a stable in Bethlehem, when shepherds

came to honor the birth of the Good Shepherd, and Wise Men followed a star to the home

of Him who is called the Morning Star.

There was also a time when the babe of Bethlehem

(The House of Bread) became the Bread of Life, and a child of Nazareth (The Branch)

became the Branch of Righteousness who turned the cross of death into the tree of life. My family and I pray at this time that this Christmas may be a blessed one for you and
yours, and we thank you deeply for your prayers and support over the past year. As you enter into a New Year of service for Him may God go with you and His Spirit guide you.

This week we began new Wednesday evening Cottage Meetings in the Hazeldene area of
MITCHELL'S PLAIN. Our theme is the GOSPEL OF JOHN, written so that "you might believe

that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that, believing, you might have life through his name." The meeting was highlighted by prayers, testimonies and chorus singing, and my
first message was on John 1:1-18.

Last week I was called on to bring a special message to the Anglican church in PORTLANDS.

I spoke on the prophet HABAKKUK:- His HEARTACHE His VISION His PRAYER.
commitment of our lives to the Lord Jesus Christ and to the word of God.

I emphasized

that when the scripture says the just shall live by faith, this involves a total

Our regular Monday OUTREACH GROUP at LENTEGEUR continues with lessons on MATTHEW; but last Monday we had an Open Service, with visitors from Portlands. I spoke on 2 WAYS, and stressed that all people have a choice between 2 ways, and only 2. We are either for the Lord or we are against him; we are either part of the problem or part of the solution.

On Tuesday evenings we meet at MANENBERG with lessons on the Corinthian letters, as well
as studies from Roland Allen's "Missionary Methods" and DeForest Murch's "Christians Only"
which I have now summarized in Afrikaans. On alternate Sunday mornings I am presently

bringing messages from John's first epistle.

Last week we had a visitor from BONTEHEUWEL.

We meet at the home of James Dunjua on the 1st &' 3rd Thursday of the month with lessons on the book of Acts as well as missionary messages. He lives on Montevideo way near the
MITCHELL'S PLAIN Town Center. He also brings regular Gospel messages on the peak hour trains between MITCHELL'S PLAIN and CAPE TOWN. They even have a Gospel Train Committee which organizes the services in each train carriage.

I often have opportunities to bring messages to the council workers at the Epping Market, and recently spoke on, THE KINGDOM OF GOD, THE CREATION, THE FALL OF MAN, & NOAH'S FLOOD.
The work is not without its problems however. One of our ministers, Amos Fanie, went to much trouble and expense to rent a car and drive some 500 miles to a Convention in GRAAFF REINET. When he got there he was told by one of the missionaries,who is trying to exert authority over the churches, to "leave the meeting in the name of the Lord Jesus
Christ." We have also lost some brethren from BEL-HAR, but are praying they will return.

Brother Dunjua's wife recently suffered a stroke, and can hardly walk, yet she comes

regularly to the services, cheerfully gives her testimony, and even makes the effort to climb 2 flights of stairs to visit a fellov; member who is ill. That is Christian love
in action and one of the reasons why I can still say: "ITS GREAT TO BE A MISSIONARYl"
