ABWE - Association of Baptists for World Evangelism

Dear Praying Brothers and Sisters,   

God indeed blessed the GBBC Bible Conference. We sincerely appreciate Pastor Andrew, along with his family, coming to preach during the Bible conference. God used his messages in a great way, but He especially used it to call one young man to start the Bible Clubs in his home area. The following week was Bible Institute training with Dr. Nelson. A number of Bible Institute leaders across the country attended, and we were able to provide curriculum for four institutes with a total of 80 students. We ended with a training meeting for the Bible Clubs that God blessed greatly. There is just such joy among the men leading and serving in the Bible Clubs as many young people continue to make professions of faith and teachers give testimony of transformed lives.

      We have almost completed the curriculum summary manual for the kindergarten to 12th-grade material, which we will use for the public school teacher training. Thank you to the many who have helped us on this project. Our next training will be in Hela Province from December 9th to 13th. Please pray for Max as he returns to his home village to lead the Bible Clubs in Hela. 

The $50,000 matching fund for the Bible Clubs for 2025 is now up to $28,189. Thank you so much for your continued sacrifices to help reach our goal of 16,000 students a week next year. If you would like to give to the matching fund, please use this link. God continues to open doors to new schools. A few days ago, Pastor Mike visited a new school to ask if we could teach the Bible next year. The headmaster stated they had just finished a staff meeting where they prayed for God to send someone to them. What a quick answer to prayer for us and them!

Levi broke his arm last Saturday and is now in a cast. Leandra has been doing okay and appreciates your continued prayers. Thank you for your fervent prayers for our unspoken request.

For His glory,

Tim, Leandra, Lydia, and Levi Hawes
