Moses’ Report for January 2023
Appreciation
Thank you for partnering with us to touch many lives with the Gospel of Christ.
Refugees in Benue State, Nigeria
We started the year 2023 with taking the Gospel to the refugee camp in Daudu, Benue state where we reached about four hundred children with the Gospel of Christ.
Special thanks to brother Gaius Itodo who travelled all the way from Abuja to partner with our church to help the refugee children.

Items Donated to the Refugee Children
Special thanks to those that supported financially. After sharing the Gospel with the children, we also gave gifts that were donated by caring believers.
These are other basic things that will be a blessing to the children of the refugee camp, giving them a haircut once a month, buying them sandals and writing material, and helping some to learn a trade. Learning a trade will take at least 6 months. You can sponsor as many children as the Lord leads to learn a trade while they are being discipled in the word of God. I desire to visit every month to share the Gospel and share supplies.
If you can donate, a one-time gift or monthly donation will enable me to fellowship with those undergoing persecution at least once a month.
As you may or may not know, these crises are still ongoing. Here in Benue state, just a few days ago, many were killed close to the refugee camp.
(Please pray for Benue state, Nigeria)
Street Preaching Update
Praise the Lord! We received an AGM board with a “see three things God cannot do.” This is a wonderful tool I use to share the Gospel at Uyo state with Grace Independent Baptist Church. We have been able to use this board on the street to preach with great responses to the Gospel.
It’s also a great privilege to host Brother Kwaghkaha, who has been knocking on doors with us, telling people about Jesus Christ. He is indeed a faithful soulwinner for the Lord. A few days ago, he received a beating because of the boldness he has for the Gospel but he rather rejoices in it. He also preached for us on the 22 January 2023.
Fellow Laborers
The Lord has blessed me with a great number of young people who go out soul winning with me daily and work with me in the church. Some are new converts who have a heart to serve the Lord with their lives. In spite of their extreme poverty, where many of these people depend on me for feeding and dwell contently at our fellowship hall, they are only too glad to be alive and serve the Lord as best as they can. I count it as a great blessing to have an army that goes out to win souls every day, but any financial support from other believers to help care for the basic needs of these soldiers, will be greatly appreciated by all!
Answer to Prayers
I appreciate you for praying for Brother Victor whose testimony I gave and for whom I asked for prayers in my last letter. He is now leading music in the church and is a faithful soul winner. It’s just a joy to see him growing in the knowledge of our Savior Jesus Christ.

Church Anniversary Update
This year will make it two years since we planted Praise and Glory Church Makurdi and the Lord has blessed the church in so many ways, I cannot imagine. We have fellowship in suffering and in goodness of the Lord.
We average 40–50 in fellowship; it’s just a joy seeing people getting saved and baptized. Please pray that many people will be saved during our church anniversary. We will be organizing a 3-day revival conference and we want to print Gospel tracts to share and handbills to invite people to come hear the Gospel, if we get the financial support for it.

Radio Ministry Update
Unfortunately, we are not able to renew our radio payment this quarter as yet. Please pray and consider supporting this ministry financially if it’s within your means to do so. BROTHERS FM has been such an encouragement to those who have no access to a church. The sound of the radio takes the Gospel to where I’m not able to go. The cost that we are required to meet is 1500 naira a week or $45 USD.

Prison Ministry Update
Our monthly Prison Ministry continues this year on every last Monday of the month. The inmates have many needs so it’s easy to be a blessing to them if anyone wants to donate to that cause.
Bible Donations
We appreciate the bible donations we have been receiving. It's been such a tremendous blessing! Many people that we are able to reach now have a bible in their hands to read. We are excited to get more bibles for distribution, especially with the church anniversary and revival conference coming up soon.
Thanks to IBC Calabar for donating hymnals and bibles to us!
