AFRICAN REPORT - 2002
In February - March of 2002, Joshua Paul Bohlen and John Roy Bohlen went to minister in Nigeria and in the Republique of Benin. Joshua was there for 10 weeks and John was there for 8 weeks.
As we begin this report, we want to take this opportunity to thank every person who in any way assisted or was a part of our trip, through your prayers, your giving, your encouragement. According to the Bible, you also share in the reward. We hereby humbly thank you for every sacrifice that you have made, and we thank you in the behalf of each of the dear ones in Africa, and on the way, the marriages, the saved ones, those healed, or filled with the Spirit, or who came into the King’s Greatest Secret, or the Gospel of the Kingdom, who have benefited. We thank you in behalf of our family, ourselves, our ministry, and, in behalf of God. We hereby especially acknowledge Karen and the Joseph and Michelle Bohlen family, the Guptill Family, and all of the members of our Great Commission Fellowship, Shirley, Gabriella, Leah, Stacie, Darlene, Mike, Jerry, Jeanie and Justin, Pastors John and Jeanine from Milaca, for the Brashears, for Dr. Sally Stout, for the Benedicts, and for all of you who came and hugged and worked and prayed and gave and gave and gave. Pastors Joey and Michelle stayed by the stuff, led in worship, spent many hours in counseling, and in wisely pastoring. We honour you in Jesus’ Name.
We also want to honour Joey and Zoe who went on an equally dangerous and exciting ministry trip to China, just before the end of the year. We encourage you to ask them questions concerning their trip.
We ministered in Lagos, Akure, Ado-Ekiti, Abeokuta, Iboro, Igbora, Aba, Calabar, Ibadun, and in the Rebublique of Benin.
