Introduction
Lack of information creates confusion.
To avoid this confusion, we at Bear Valley of Gueckedou have a monthly obligation to report to our supporters on the completion of activities.
In a few words, you will find the following information in six points.
I-Teaching
In August, there was no theoretical teaching. However, the students did put the theory they had learned in class into practice during their time off. More on this later in the report.
Il-Evangelism.
During the three-week break, the students were not idle in God's vineyard.As mentioned above, they did door-to-door evangelism, according to the instructions they received before joining their respective congregations.
Three of them namely : Balla Frangadouno, Alain Mano and Lambert Kamano succeeded in convincing three lost souls to confess the Lord Jesus Christ as their Savior.
Next, Justin Malaya Simbiano, a graduate of Bear Valley's first class, tells us with joy that he has finally succeeded in converting his own mother to the church of Christ after three years of exhortation.
III-Personal profile
It gives us great pleasure to introduce you to Balla Kamano, a teacher at Bear Valley of Gueckedou.
He was born in Gbangbadou in 1972. He converted on 5/1/1994.
After two years (1999-2001) of training at the Bouaké Bible School under Barry Baggott, he returned to Guinea to serve as a preacher. He began his ministry in Gueckedou in the Solondonin congregation, eventually moving to his hometown of Kissidougou to serve in the same function in the local church to the present day.
We present him as a humble and faithful servant of Jesus Christ. His gentle, patient character is a great asset to his preaching ministry.
IV-Training women in Kenema
In an effort to teach children the way of the Lord, Steven Ashcraft and Karen Ashcraft spent two days, training Sierra Leonean women in Kenema, and two Guinean women took part.
During this training workshop, our Coordinator Steven met us with some of the leaders of the Sierra Leone congregations to discuss the progress of the church in the three countries: Guinea, Sierra Leone and Liberia, especially starting in the Kissi area, namely Gueckedou, Koindou and Foya, which is very receptive to the gospel. A meeting of leaders from the said area is scheduled for 29/9/2023 in Foya to discuss and plan evangelism activities in the zone.
V-Bible Seminar in N'Zerekoré
We would like to inform you that the congregations of the Churches of Christ in Guinea are organizing a Bible seminar from September 20 to 23, 2023 in Mohomou, N'Zerekoré. On the following themes:
1- Church History
2-Importance of being a member of Church of Christ
3-Church Organization.
VI-Suggestions.
We ask our brothers and sisters in Christ to support us in prayer for the peace and social tranquility in Guinea and understanding between us brothers in Christ for the progress of the church.
We also ask for spiritual support for the success of the above-mentioned Bible seminar.
Conclusion.
In the image of what we have as a result of evangelism. We can believe that our students are obeying Bear Valley's mission.
We thank God for his protection during the 31 days of this month and for the various tasks he has enabled us to accomplish.
We are grateful to Bear Valley International for their gratitude in supporting the training of evangelists in Guinea.
We would also like to thank our Coordinator Steven Ashcraft for his personal efforts in the development of the Church of Christ in Guinea.
