If you would like the latest reports from Kibidula, please consider subscribing to our “monthly” newsletter.  We try to submit a report every month.  Everyone is so busy doing the work, that sometimes it is very challenging to get people to stop long enough to report about the work they are doing.  We are trying to do a better job of keeping people informed.  Please feel free to review past reports under the “About Us” tab, at the Newsletter page.  For future newsletters, please subscribe at the link found on any of our pages listed as “subscribe to our mailing list”.  When you sign up, you must look for the confirmation email in your inbox.  If you don’t find it, check your junk mail folders to confirm your request.  You can unsubscribe at any time!  Thanks for all the prayers and support!  We couldn’t do this work without people like you!

In the last several weeks, we have had a big surprise.  We now have a few places here and there where we can get faster internet through the local cellphone towers.

With this improved internet, we no longer have to drag our electronics to town in hopes of good internet and a few minutes to try to get internet work completed.

I hope to get many of the pages on our website updated in the near future.  I have already started and the Newsletter Page (under About US) is up-to-date with all the past newsletters!

All of our newsletters are e-newsletters, so if you haven’t signed up for them, please click on any signup location (on any of our pages) to keep up-to-date.

The Kibidula Medical Missionary Department now includes Kori Butts as a full time staff member. In addition to the basic medical missionary training held at the Evangelism School (the first month of each 5-month session), the team has been very busy with mobile teaching sessions, health expos, helping with evangelism efforts, translating the teaching materials, developing tracts, opening our new Wellness Center, and doing village door-to-door work.
Kori has been a big help, as she has been very active in the villages around Kibidula, helping people with all kinds of needs. A few students from the Evangelism School have the opportunity to continue the medical training and work together with her in the community and at the Wellness/Lifestyle Center. Over 50 men and women have been advised or given medical assistance, food and clothing provided for more than 15 families, and four gardens for the elderly or sick “put back in shape”. The new Wellness/Lifestyle Center has served 3 guests so far.

Ultimately, the goal is to win people’s trust that we may reach them for Christ. Our first health guest that came for help with out-of-control diabetes earlier this year was baptized on the 17th of December! We are praising the Lord for opening doors and hearts.
Fifty students attended the one-month medical missionary training this year at the Kibidula Training Center as either a stand-alone class or as part of the 5-month evangelism course. Together with our students we conducted health expos and meetings in 15 different locations, with more than 2’262 attendees. In connection to these meetings, 111 people decided to be baptized.
We want to praise God for all He has done!
