“The LORD is good to those who wait for Him, to the person who seeks Him. It is good that he waits silently for the salvation of the LORD.” Lam. 3:25-26
Dear brothers and sisters in the Lord, it seems that our gracious Father is teaching many of us the Christian virtue of waiting. It is a hard but valuable lesson to learn. As we wait for the LORD’s goodness and salvation to appear, we must spend our time seeking Him.
Lately my email inbox has been overflowing with newsletters and it may be the same for you so I will keep this brief.
We continue with 10 students in our discipleship school. At the end of August they will, Lord willing, graduate. We are doing ministry trips with them to churches in town and in the villages.

Our furlough plans are on hold for now, but we still hope to travel to the US this year, if the Lord wills. We wait for the Master to open the door.
The kids continue to enjoy their summer vacation. We were able to take a mini family vacation last week.

We are burdened for churches here. We are saddened by the news of grave problems in some of them. They need sound Bible teaching and training. Please pray for God’s Spirit to work powerfully in us and in our dear Tanzanian brothers and sisters.

We are saddened by all the upheaval going on in the US. We are praying for the church of Jesus to stand strong at this time. May Christ’s light shine even brighter through you in this dark time. God’s gracious and transforming gospel is still the ONLY solution to man’s deepest needs and problems.
Thank you for your prayers. It is the most important thing you can do. God’s almighty power is unleashed when His people seek Him and ask Him to intervene.
In Christ,
Luke Johnson
