This is a brief update on Brother Eli's missionary outreach and witnessing activities.
Brother Eli has been witnessing in the Mayville area, an informal settlement consisting of mainly isiZulu speakers.
He has made contact with several individuals and introduced the Message of the Hour, and eventually, he managed to gather a group who regularly receives him in their home.
Brother Elie Bamokoto
This area is pretty rough, but the Lord has been gracious, and Eli's efforts have produced good fruits as we managed to baptize three individuals at the office last week.
The most remarkable thing about all this, is that Brother Eli is limited in his communication with people in the area, as he does not speak Zulu. We have provided an MP3 player from our office, through which he plays the isiZulu translated sermons of Brother Branham.
The devil has attempted on several occasions to derail Brother Eli's witnessing, once attacking him through a demon possessed drunk woman and on the second occasion, our brother was mugged at knife point and robbed of R300 ($24).
These attempts could in no wise dampen our brother’s efforts, which has only increased in the face of adversity.
The elderly lady being baptized formerly belonged to a denominational church, but ever since she heard that eagle cry, there's a picture of Brother Branham hanging on the door of her home. She's identified with the Message and the messenger.
Pictured below is our SiSwati Translator, Brother Phillip Mathunjwa, who is an Evangelist and a fluent isiZulu speaker. He assisted Brother Eli with the baptism and was also able to converse with the believers who came to be baptized on the day.
May God Bless You,
