The Gambia Update

Sylvester Konteh is due to graduate from seminary this month with a Masters of Theological Studies (MTS) from the Reformed Presbyterian Theological Seminary in Pittsburgh. He has carried out his studies in their entirety, via distance learning in the Gambia, whilst at the same time as pastoring his congregation in Brikama. We are thankful to the Lord for making this possible, through the means of modern technology, something that wouldn’t have been possible in previous years.

As far as the congregation in Brikama is concerned, we have been thankful to see new families who have worshiped with us in recent times. They have come from a Roman Catholic background, whilst one family came as a result of the scholarship which was given to their son, in order to enable him to attend Life Impact Nursery School, run by Mrs Johnette Konteh. Please pray that those who are new to the congregation would not only attend regularly, but come to know Christ as the one who is “altogether lovely” (Song of Solomon 5:16).

Finally, please remember to pray that Lord would provide funds to enable the congregation to construct a suitable building on the land purchased in Brikama, “with God, all things are possible” (Matthew 19:26).
