The harvest truly is great, but the laborers are few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest that He would send forth laborers into His harvest. - Luke 10:2
Please pray with us that the Lord will send people to assist BTN to do His work.

Outreaches in the community
BTN co-ordinates outreaches in many places in the community and had the pleasure of co-ordinating an outreach with a group of boys from Abingdon School in the UK. They came to help for several weeks in July/August and did various community projects, including...
Aunty Hannah's School - Building a 'jungle gym' and co-ordination development playground, plus improving other school facilities

The three childrenLighthouse Project Starts Shining
It has no building yet, but it is already building the children's lives! In a recent newsletter we shared how we are burdened for the orphans in our community. Acting upon God's leading, we have begun to care for three young orphans, and are planning to 'adopt' a further two in January. They will be housed in caravans while we trust the Lord to build proper accomodation.

East Africa Mission Trip
Brad and Hazel had an eventful trip to Kenya, Tanazania, and Uganda in October. They spent five weeks training, exhorting, motivating, and assisting pastors and Christian educators in all three countries.

Should this be your portrait?
