Update from Cape Town

Gail and Ronnie are working with a refugee "church" to teach them English (Gail), train the "pastors," teach them to witness, and train them how on teaching the Bible to children, teens, and cell groups.  These refugees are from Rwanda, Burundi, and the DRC.  They have very little money, but each week they pay to ride the train twice a week from wherever in Cape Town they live to attend the English class or church and training.  These people want to learn.  They want to get jobs.  They want to know more about the Word.
Please pray for seminary students as they continue through the year.  There are a few international students from Zim, Namibia and America who are attending and are trying to adjust to a new culture and to studying in English, for many of the students.
Also, pray for the young adults Ronnie teaches each week.  Ronnie is teaching them "The Story" method of witnessing and then they hope to go to university campuses and witness and start Bible studies.
Thanks for the prayers for Ronnie's mother, Earlene.  She had a stroke on March 16th and was very confused and couldn't talk.  By the following Tuesday, she was almost back to her old self, which is still limited because she is 81; however, she is a lovely woman that people enjoy visiting.
