This past week has been a sad week for the people of Yembiyembi and for our team. On Friday, Kevin passed away.
He was one of Tara’s tribal fathers and was one of our main helpers in translating the Scripture. But from the start, he has rejected the Truth even though we as a team shared the Gospel with him so many times.
Please be in prayer for his wife, Erika, and their kids. She is not a believer and so we hope that this will only make her ask more questions and want to know more about the Bible.
Then on Monday in the afternoon, Hosea passed away. As far as we know he was not a believer. He has been sick off and on for a while now with a heart condition.
Please be in prayer for his parents, Donald & Anna, who also are rejecting the Truth.
This is a very difficult time for Brooks & Nina to be in the tribe by themselves. [Note: Brooks and Nina are the other missionary couple at Yembiyembi and are with the tribe presently while the Suttons are on furlough]
We know that God is still in control and He has a plan for the believers in Yembiyembi!
Thank you for praying!
Tony, Tara, Scarlett & Logan
