Sometimes it may sound like missionaries are "inventing" colourful stories to keep their friends up in night. It is not true. Let me tell you a real story happened 2 weeks ago

Brothers  used to visit Oxford House on more or less regular bases. In September, brothers planned on having a Bible Camp in the Community and thought of arriving and staying overnight in the Mission house in Oxford House.

Very abruptly one local brother, pastor Silas, called brothers saying that the camp has been cancelled. 

The same night the Mission House has been burnt to the ground. Our understanding, the fire was intentional. If that Bible Camp had not been cancelled, then brothers and sisters would be in the Mission house. Imagine how horrible it could go then..

We all were very thankful for God's protecting hand.

Though Mission House is in ruins, the Church building is still available. Brothers went and had a good service in Oxford House last Sunday. 

Please pray for Oxford House!
