Deep Borehole well for Safe Harbor Baptist Children's Home and Orphanage Nigeria

UPDATE: Please read the entire post, urgent prayer needed. We have on hand $1400 for the digging of the deep Borehole well to have clean drinkable water for Safe Harbor Baptist Children's Home and Orphanage. A peron had committed to giving the balance to make $2,000 to dig the well in January. I received word that they were not going to be able to fulfill their committment. Please pray that the Lord will supply the funds so we can get the well dug. It is dry season and the wa...ter level is very low and dirty If the Lord should burden your heart to help please send funds to Safe Harbor Baptist Ministries Inc. P.O. Box 1610, Ringgold, GA 30736 designate the funds Well.

URGENT PRAYER NEEDED FOR THE ORPHANAGE. I received this e-mail from Timothy Ojo last night concerning the Orphanage. Please pray about these needs, Prayer changes things, God in His word said, "Ask and ye shall receive". With 12 children, the house parents and their children it takes a lot of water. We were already buying drinking water as the well water is not safe to drink. The well water was used in washing clothes, baths etc. It has been going dry in the dry season as it is a shallow hand dug well, not the concrete rings have cracked and allowing mud in the water so it is unusable. Please I ask you again Pray and read the whole post.

I am very glad to hear that a lot of brethren are praying for our bank account situation. We are trusting the Lord to help on this.
Meanwhile, I am praying that we will get a lot of blessings come in as we are currently having problem with water in the compound. The well is not producing enough water as it should and we are not getting enough water. Also when it rains, the whole water becomes red and very dirty as mud and dirty water is seeping into the well. I have been praying about digging a bole hole in the compound and I have discussed this with the landlord who agreed that whatever we spend on this will be deducted from our next rent. An average cost for a bole hole is about $2,000. I am trusting God to provide for this need.
Also, I am praying God to provide for the tuitions fees of the children. We have a lot of needs indeed but I believe that our God is abundantly able to provide for all these needs!
Thanks and talk with you later.

We have received $50 toward the Nets for the beds and need $150.00 more to purchase the remaining bed nets. Each net cost $10.00.

REPORT: JUST IN FROM MISSIONARY TIMOTHY OJO FROM THE VILLAGE OF EGBEJODA

Jimmy Ammons Just received these photo's from Timothy Ojo, He went to the village of Egbejoda this past Sunday. We established this church back in 1992. The first service we had in the village 22 souls came to the meeting and 22 were saved. The church has continued to grow and reach out to surrounding villages. We used Bible College student to go there for years and then one of our graduates felt he should go there full time. Joel Abraham served the Lord there for many years and we supported him. Two years ago he accepted the pastorate at another church. God gave another pastor who's name is Joel Adesakin. He is being used of the Lord mightly in the area. The name of the church is Isle Isin Baptist church which means Temple Baptist Church. Now Timothy reported over 100 in attendance on Sunday and SIX SOULS SAVED. AMEN. He mentioned the need for a motorcycle for the ministry. This is a remote area and only accessible by Motorcycle or Truck. Over the years more than 5 motorcycles have been worn out going back and forth to the villages in the area. We need for you to pray that the lord will provide the Motorcycle for the pastor. A new one now cost about $900.00. Here is my prayer, Lord please provide this vital need for Pastor Adesakin to work in the village church. In Jesus Name. NOTE: He cannot afford to buy one himself he served the Lord by faith and is supported only $50.00 a month.

Praise the Lord this year 5 students were promoted from Primary School to Secondary School level I. All five have accepted Christ as their Savior and we pray the parent will be able to send them to a Secondary school in a nearby town. Our school building is finished with just a few minor things to finish. We need to put up Iron Poles on the Veranda and pay the mason. We need $800 to complete this project. We are praying that during the six week break that we can raise funds for new uniforms and school supplies for the next school year. Pray with us I will be posting more about this in the coming weeks.

Paul Nenge (Eye)

Dear Friends,
Paul woke up Tuesday morning with his eye swollen shut. He was taken to the hospital for treatment and it was determined that he had been stung or bitten by an insect. He was treated and is doing better. Continue to pray for his healing. Also pray for sponsors for Paul's monthly needs. Any amount sponsored helps feed, clothe, educated, medical needs, and housing for Paul. Paul parents were killed by Muslim extremist in the northern part of Nigeria.

One of our Car's at Safe Harbor Burns

Dear Friends,
Our red Datsun Bluebird caught fire last week in the village of Abekihen. The car was used to transport the children to school during the week and on the weekends Pastor David Adesina used it to go to the village and Pastor and Evangelize. He was on his way to church after picking up a car full of people from another village and the fire started. We praise the Lord the engine was not damaged nor the inside of the car. It will have to be completely rewired as well as replace all other items under the hood. We are waiting for a mechanic to get a price for us to fix it. Then we will wait on the Lord to supply the funds to repair the car.
