Xhosa in Cape Town

 “He is risen. He is risen indeed!,’ is a familiar greeting of followers of Jesus Christ as they gather together today around the world to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ, our Savior and our Lord. In the township of Philippi, just outside of Cape Town, a small but growing group of believers are celebrating Resurrection Day together for the very first time. Whether they gather in the classroom of a local school or within the small living quarters of one of the families, there will be plenty of worship and gratitude toward God for “His indescribable gift” in Jesus. Pastor Brian and his wife will not be able to hide their joy, as they praise God with the people He has brought into this new young church. Won't you rejoice with them today?  Pray that God will continue to grow and build His church in Philippi. Please pray for Pastor Brian and his wife as they both juggle the responsibilities of a family, jobs, Seminary classes, along with starting a new church. “Now to Him who is able to do exceeding abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us, to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations forever and ever. Amen” Ephesians 3: 20-21
