Missionary Update 04/21/2022
Tony Stark's update #3 from Rwanda 4/19/22 Dear Friends and Family, I know you are wondering about the meeting that was scheduled for buying an FM frequency. It didn't take place. It is a long story, and I won't take the time to write about it. I think the Lord protected us from a scam. People do get multiple frequencies and do sell them, but I don't think these people really had a frequency to sell. Today Ferdinand talked to the people who grant radio frequencies (RURA) who assured him some frequencies would be available in July, and we would be considered. We will have our studio in operation by then broadcasting on the internet. Keep praying!! One of these days we are going to broadcast the truth all over Rwanda and into other countries by way of an FM frequency. Everyday we move about in one direction or the other in Sadock's vehicle or by foot. We are always loaded with seed to sow. By the time we return home our tracts are finished. Sadock then receives many calls from people with questions, resulting in some of them getting saved. Recently on the way to Kibuye, Sadock received ten calls through the night, and two of them received the Lord. Recently while Katy was out sowing seed, many called and one of them got saved. On Saturday we had a meeting with some prospective students for the English BI. Although we only had five in attendance due to extremely heavy rains, it was a very profitable meeting. Sunday we travelled to Kibungo on the eastern side of the country. Pastor Jackson and his new wife Grace minister at Faith Baptist Church. They are doing great. There were at least 100 adults and about 35 children in attendance. Pastor Jackson preached first, Then we had a song service with the youth choir, children's choir, and ladies choir each singing two songs. After Sadock and David sang a special, I preached on the resurrection. Lastly, we inflated the portable baptistry I brought and filled it with water by hose and buckets. I had the privilege of baptizing nine people. What a joyful experience. About 2:30 we ate lunch at Pastor Jackson's home. After visiting several people on the return trip, we reached our apartment about 8:30. Yesterday Katy and I walked up the hill to a little restaurant and had a good lunch. I went next door to get my hair cut while Katy went up the road witnessing. Can you imagine getting your haircut in a shop where no one knows English and you only know English? I got my haircut plus a shampoo and what I believe was a facial of some kind. They just kept pointing and moving me from chair to chair. When they got done with me it cost me less than two dollars for everything. Would you be willing to let them cut all your hair off for the opportunity to give them a tract? I was able to give Kinyarwanda tracts which were gladly received. It was quite an experience. Keep praying for the building permits for Calvary Baptist Church in Kigali and Victory Baptist Church in Ruhengeri. Pray for the radio frequency and more laborers. Thank you for your help!!!
