Mukhanyo Praise and Prayer - September 2020

“Whenever Moses held up his hand, Israel prevailed, and whenever he lowered his hand, Amalek prevailed. But Moses' hands grew weary, so they took a stone and put it under him, and he sat on it, while Aaron and Hur held up his hands, one on one side, and the other on the other side…” (Exodus 17:11-12)

Our supporters and intercessors are like Aaron and Hur that held Moses’ arms up during the war against the Amalek. Thank you so much that you are strengthening our arms in the battle through your interest, love, prayers and gifts. That is indeed a great blessing to us! We gladly share some items with you for prayer and praise.
​

1. Thank the Lord with us for His provision for and protection of the Mukhanyo family! We praise Him that this ministry can continue unhindered.
   
   
2. September is promising to be a full month! The following is on the programme:
   1. Wednesday 2 September – Education Committee meeting
   2. Thursday 17 September – Board meeting
   3. Friday 18 September – Strategic Forum
   4. Monday 21 to Friday 25 September – Study break for all our campus students.
   5. Monday 21 September – Faculty Forum
   6. Tuesday 22 and Wednesday 23 September – Distance Facilitators Forum
   7. Tuesday 29 September – Classes on campuses and at Advanced Learning Centres resume
   8. Tuesday 29 September – Executive Management committee meeting
   9. Wednesday 30 September – Operations committee meeting.
      
      
3. Please pray with us for the day of Strategic planning on 18 September. This will be attended by just over 20 MTC staff members – mainly in leading positions. Pray that it will be a time where we together will experience God’s guidance regarding the plans for 2021. We want to say like Moses said to the Lord in Exodus 33:15: “If Your presence does not go with us, do not bring us up from here.”
   
   
4. The Forum for our Distance Facilitators is always a highlight in the year. It is not just a time of instruction for them, but also for spiritual upliftment and fellowship. They often enjoy to meet others and share ideas regarding their ministry to their students. Please pray that many will be able to attend and that it will indeed be a blessing. Please pray for all the preparations and arrangements too.
   
   
5. Pray that the last quarter of the academic year will start off well on 29 September and that our students will be able to complete their academic year unhindered.
   
   
6. Our Distance students really need perseverance as many are working or in fulltime ministry and also have to find time to study. As a result, they can only do a few modules at a time and it takes long to complete the qualification. It is our prayer that the Lord may encourage and strengthen them.
   
   
7. Please pray that the Lord may continue to provide for Mukhanyo as well as for our students individually. Some students (or their sponsors) are struggling to pay the fees.
   
   

Thank you for standing with us in this ministry!
