Mukhanyo Prayer and Praise - June 2021

“You then, my child, be strengthened by the grace that is in Christ Jesus, and what you have heard from me in the presence of many witnesses entrust to faithful men, who will be able to teach others also."
(2 Timothy 2:1-2)

That is what theological training is all about: To pass on to faithful men what the Lord has taught us and entrusted to us. In this way they are equipped for teach others also – including those in their churches and communities. May the Lord help us that Mukhanyo will have such an impact to the glory of His name!

Thank you that you are part of this ministry through your prayers. We gladly share some specific points:

1. Thank the Lord with us that our students could complete the first semester of 2021 and the exams are done. Several of them are struggling to cover their fees – pray that the Lord will help them and provide for them so that they can be ready to enrol for the second semester in July.
   
   
2. Although January is the beginning of our academic year, Mukhanyo has an intake twice per year. Pray that we will have a good intake at all five centres in July.
   
   
3. Pray for our students as they enjoy a well-deserved study break. Many will be involved in some ministries while others spend time with families or friends. Often these families are not true Christians. It is our prayer that the Lord will use our students as witnesses for Him during this period and that they will stand strong in their faith.
   ​
4. The annual Bible College Consultation is on the agenda for Tuesday 8 to Thursday 10 June. Please pray with us for:
   1. All the preparations – practical matters, but also the speakers who prepare for their presentations.
   2. Safe travels for all attendees – a few will even attend from other countries.
   3. For all practical matters during the event – that the weather will not be too cold (it is winter!), that everything will run smoothly, that no sickness, Covid regulations or other matters will disturb the event.
   4. Most importantly, pray for the Lord’s richest blessing on the event and that it will contribute towards the promotion of sound Theological training in Southern Africa.
      
      
5. Other matters on the agenda for June are:
   1. ​Tuesday 1 June – Post moderation for exams.
   2. Tuesday 1 June – Audit and Risk committee meeting.
   3. Wednesday 2 June – HR Committee meeting.
   4. Thursday 3 June – Academic committee meeting including Student Assessment.
   5. Saturday 19 June – Board meeting.
   6. Monday 21 to Friday 25 June – Staff training.
   7. Tuesday 22 June – Executive Committee meeting.

​May the Lord richly bless you and make you a blessing to others
