HAPPY 2007 FRIENDS!





Some of us MAF staff decided to go and celebrate New Year early on Saturday with a day out to Kudjip, approximately a hour out of town to the east of Hagen. The Church of the Nazarene run a mission hospital out there, so we packed a picnic, applied large amounts of sun screen and went bush for the day.

After a lovely lunch and catch up with friends, we walked about 15 minutes to a river with a waterfall and small pool. The water was freezing, so of course, only the children got in. It was a beautiful spot and a real treat to get out of the rat-race of town for the day.

Hi Sandy and Narelle and the girls

Hello from Emmanuel.

We have just had a really exciting weekend of prayer and fasting as we seek to move Emmanuel forward into mission and growth - pray with us that we will be wise in discerning God's leading and direction for the future. We remember you often in our prayers; praying for your protection, health and growing faith.

The news from the Nixon fmaily is that Caz is 14 weeks pregnant, so there is new life coming to Emmanuel in a very real way.

Since we saw you in the summer, it has been good to find a number of new people joining us at Emmanuel. A new family, two couples and a few returned exiles from the past. Pray that God will sustain us just now, and that the 'new minister' (me)won't scare-off to many of the faithful. There are always those who don't like how things are done, so I will continue to try to be a 'God-pleaser' as best I can. God knows what he is doing.

Good news is that we have a new website. You can check us out at: emmanuelclermiston.org.uk

Let us know how things are with you, and please send through any specific prayer requests so that we can bring your needs before the Lord.

With love and prayers,

Willie, Caz, Anna, Alice and all the Emmanuel Family. (Nehemiah 6:9)
