September Update -- 2025

Greetings in the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ! We're pleased to share with you the wonderful things the Lord has been doing in our lives and ministry.   

Family: In September, Joseph completed his advanced locksmith training and received his advanced certification as a locksmith (see here). Praise the Lord! That was a huge feat that he accomplished with the Lord's help by the grace of God. 

We had previously reported that he had been successfully certified as a locksmith, but now he has also completed this second level, which includes advanced techniques for combination locks used in safes and safety deposit boxes, such as the kind used in banks.

We're so pleased that the Lord helped him finish all of this training, which he initially started in mid-November 2024, taking only 10 months to complete it. Thank you for all your prayers for him to that end.

Ministry: Len traveled to New Hampshire on ministry in August (see photos at link above). Thank you for remembering him in prayer. The Lord truly blessed his trip with His power, presence, and glory that were evident. He preached the gospel on the streets of Manchester, and in the parks with a megaphone. He handed out gospel tracts, did one-on-one personal evangelism, and gave away free copies of his book, A Willing Heart to Please the Father, as well as his written salvation testimony. He met in his hotel room with a friend named Henry in Nashua, who is a brother in Christ, along with his nonverbal adult foster child Patrick, and both of them experienced God supernaturally when Len prayed for them. 

Afterward Henry testified: “Wow! My spirit was lifted, refreshed. I’m feeling His glory big time. Patrick had his hands raised in the elevator [afterward]. I truly believe he saw into the supernatural [realm] in your room. He saw something we didn’t.  So so glorious.” Praise the Lord!

Len also met with a family in East Hampstead in their home, and had a wonderful visit ministering to them as well. Since that visit, three out of four members of that family have gotten water baptized (videos in album), which was conducted by one of our board members, Dave Wenrich, who is a retired pastor living in New Hampshire. Praise the Lord! All those who got baptized were already saved, but wanted to get baptized in obedience to God's Word. Please join us in praying for the one family member, Nick, to be saved. Len has since spoken with him by phone, but he is not ready yet.

Len also preached the gospel in a park and a bus station in the downtown area of the city where we live, as he, Jennifer, and the boys joined him there witnessing to people and handing out tracts. 

Len also prayed over the phone for our brother John in Nigeria (pictured left), whom you know is one of our graduates there. As Len prayed for him to receive the baptism with holy fire, he had a wonderful experience, which he later began imparting to many others. Please read about that amazing testimony here in this article called, Pastor Shocked Upon Receiving Baptism with Fire. To God be all the glory!

Len sent out his monthly edition of the Old News That's Still Fresh in September, as he usually does each month. But this edition is very special and one you don't want to miss. It contains a lot of urgent, time-sensitive content regarding the imminent return of our Lord Jesus Christ. We hope you will take a moment to check it out, especially the first article in it. We know that Jesus is coming very soon, and it's time for all of us to get our lives right with Jesus right now. Len produced a video about this that you can watch right here at this link.

As we continue to administer our discipleship training school (DTS), now in its tenth year, we'd like to update you on the good things that God is doing with it. By the grace of God, we currently have disciples in four nations including Kenya, South Sudan, Nigeria, and Uganda.

Two of our graduates, John in Nigeria (mentioned above), and Grace in Uganda (pictured left), have been conducting end-time evangelistic campaigns in their respective countries, and the Lord has been doing amazing things. Grace is traveling all over Uganda with a team of around twenty people, preaching in churches, evangelizing on the streets and market places, and from outdoor platforms to crowds of people. John is traveling to various towns and villages, as well as a prison, preaching the gospel, and even feeding the people with food that he has prepared. 

We have created blog posts for each of them with daily updates and photos, which we invite you to see, because it is more than we can put in our newsletter. But many, many people have been getting saved, healed, and delivered, and the Lord is pouring out His Spirit there through the ministries of these two brothers. What the Lord is doing is nothing short of amazing, and we are not exaggerating! Please visit these blog posts for the latest updates and photos, which are updated daily:

Uganda End Time Evangelistic Outreach

Nigeria End Time Evangelistic Outreach

In August, one of our graduates named Henry (pictured left), in South Sudan, took his first furlough back to Uganda with his wife, after serving in South Sudan for four years. They spent three weeks in their home country of Uganda, staying with Henry's mother, where they spent time with their four children and his mother. They were both refreshed by their brief furlough, and have since returned to South Sudan in September. Henry has begun an end-time evangelistic campaign, similar to what brothers John and Grace are doing, which is already having amazing success by the grace of God. People are getting saved and healed by the Lord. Please visit the following blog post for the latest updates and photos, which are updated daily:

South Sudan End Time Evangelistic Outreach

We'd like to invite you to join us in praying for these three major evangelistic campaigns being conducted in South Sudan, Uganda, and Nigeria, through which we estimate conservatively that  a combined total of approximately 281 to 300 or more people have made decisions for Christ there in the past three weeks. Hallelujah!! 

We shared with you previously about a Christian Iranian refugee family in Turkey, whose twelve-year old son, named Sina (pictured left) is suffering from deafness. He did have his cochlear implant installed, but it has not yet been turned on, so he is still waiting for that to happen on Friday the 19th.
