continue. Remember, Nehemiah prayed 120 days about a job that would ultimately take only 52 to complete. We cannot emphasize too much the need for prayer in these days of uncertainty. There are hindrances from terrorism, rising costs, political unrest, health problems, and so many other avenues of attack that Satan tries to use to keep the Gospel from doing its work across the Dark Continent. I believe we have some of the most innovative and hard working missionaries anywhere on the continent, but they must have additional churches that will be supportive. “Pray for us, that the word of the Lord may have free course, and be glorified, even as it is with you” (II Thess. 3:1). The needs are so many with orphanages, Bible schools, medical clinics, radio stations and churches needing to be built in the 16 countries where BIMI is registered. Generators, cement mixers, tools and equipment having to do with building are always needed and welcomed. New Bible institutes have a great need for commentaries and theological books. I would love to see BIMI have enough money in the Africa Project Fund to buy one million Bibles in different languages to distribute from one side of the continent to the other. Dr. James Ray, our General Director, and Brant Holladay have distributed over one million Bibles across Russia. Please pray that God will provide the needed funds required for us to do the same in Africa. As a missionary to Africa who has been selected to direct the ministry of missions for BIMI on the Dark Continent, I want to remind you who pray and give to the work in Africa that you are an inte- gral part of a great team working hard to get the Gospel to a great multitude. Continue to partner with us in this great work of getting the Word to every creature. Pray that God will enable us to encourage and recruit new missionaries for the Dark Continent. to god be the glory great things he hath done Ron Bragg, Africa Director, at the monument and burial place of David Livingstone's heart in Zambia 9
