Mukhanyo Praise and Prayer- August 2020

“The LORD is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer, my God, my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold” (Psalm 18:2).



​While the Covid-19 storm is raging, we thank the Lord that we may know Him and that He is our rock and our fortress. We are also very grateful that we are able to continue with the ministry that He has given to us. Although we had to “change gears” a few times during the past few months, we are grateful that we are almost functioning normally. We gladly share some items with you for prayer and praise.

1. Thank the Lord for His hand over protection over the Mukhanyo family during these difficult times.
   
   
2. Thank the Lord for His continued and faithful provision for the Mukhanyo ministry and for the dear prayer friends and supporters He has given us. It is our prayer that He will also supply in their needs.
   
   
3. With the second semester for contact students starting at the end of July, August is expected be a month of classes at all five our centres. Pray:
   
   1. That we will be able to continue as normally as possible.
      
   2. For our students in their studies – for good progress and that it won’t just be “academic knowledge”, but life transforming truths that they gain.
      
   3. For our lecturers and academic management as they teach and guide.
      
   4. For some of the lecturers that have to work from home due to health concerns. Those are making use of on-line lecturing which is useful, but an adjustment for lecturers and students.
      
      
4. With the teaching schedule for the second semester in progress, the mentorship sessions with students were also resumed. Pray that:
   
   1. Our lecturers leading those, will be able to encourage the students in their walk with the Lord in the uncertain times we are currently experiencing.
      
   2. Our students will have receptive hearts to receive teaching from the Word and will have the desire to grow spiritually.
      
      
5. Pray that our Distance students will be encouraged in their studies. They had to make adjustments as well and some have financial needs and serious other challenges.
   
   
6. The following is on the programme for August:
   
   1. Tuesday 11 August – Management committee meeting
      
   2. Wednesday 19 August – Audit and Risk committee meeting.
      
   3. Tuesday 25 August – Academic committee meeting
      
      
7. Please pray with us that:
   
   1. The Lord will continue to provide for Mukhanyo and the students.
      
   2. The Lord will continue to keep the Mukhanyo family safe.
      
   3. The Lord will also bless and protect our precious donors and prayer friends.
      
   4. Each of us serving at Mukhanyo will experience it as a calling and that we will give our best.
      
      

Thank you for your continued partnership with Mukhanyo through your interest, support and intercession.
