We ask your prayers for Togo this week. There's a lot of "unrest" due to last week's election. Things are "calm" but tensions are "high" in the southern part of the country. So we ask that the Lord would bless Togo with peace so that the work of the Kingdom can continue. You can read more about the elections here: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/default.stm.

Latay, our Ag Missionary among the Watchi, and his wife Minen live in Lome, the capital, where things aren't quite "safe" yet in terms of activity and travel. He had planned to plant a new crop of pineapples last week on the mission farm but decided to put it off until things are back to normal. Pray that God will protect he and his wife. They are safe and we are asking God to keep them safe.

Latay's bag was also stolen last week which had $1000 that had been given to plant teak on the mission farm, his laptop, id, keys, documents, etc. We are thankful that he is safe and pray that God would resupply everything that was lost.

I talked to him on the phone last night and was thrilled to find him super excited about the things that God is doing among the Christians and churches. This "church is growing." That "leader repented." This "family was reconciled." These "churches want to begin three new churches." He said this was testimony that it was God's Spirit moving and not by the power and effort of any man because the spiritual growth was happening long after the missionaries had left. Praise God!

It's such a joy for us to hear of how the Lord is working among our brothers and sisters in Watchiland.

God is listening and answering our prayers, so, let's keep on praying!
