Dear friends, 

This is a praise report and a prayer request.  Yesterday Pastor Andrew went from Sierra Leone to Liberia to meet with Bishop Emmanuel.  The Bishop has vision and plans to spread the SOAPs further on the continent of Africa.  He already has contacts in many countries and friends in the Liberian government.  In the following letters you can catch his African vision to have SOAP conferences, to install computers and printers, and to distribute SOAPs.  Pastor Andrew sent me the following email yesterday and I received the last one from Bishop Emmanuel today.   (personal note continued below…)

Good morning and God bless you sir Pastor Leon and your family. 

To God be the glory Pastor Andrew have left this morning for Sierra Leone but thank God that he came and we have a wonderful successful meeting for the SOAP MINISTRY project and also you meet with the minister and some of the SOAP MINISTRY team members  I was really happy when Pastor Andrew pray for the minister who gave the money.

So i and Pastor Andrew had their last meeting last night before he left this morning, we have a meeting concerning the remaining $10,000 that we need to raise so me and my team here in Liberia we have decided to raise $5,000 to wash the $10,000 and presently we have started raising the $5,000.

So Pastor Andrew said it’s going to meet with the SOAP MINISTRY team in Sierra Leone and also you for the remaining $5,000.

I and one of my pastor will be going to Sierra Leone on the 5th February 2025,to buy the computers and printers, paper and ink to brother Joshua, then me and my pastor will be leaving from Nigeria on the 8th of February 2025 that is where we’re going to start the SOAP Minister conference.

Thank you so much and God bless you Pastor Leon and also God bless Pastor Andrew.

Your Faithfully  Bishop Emmanuel SOAP MINISTRY in Liberia.

(continued from above…)  Just like a gust of wind can turn a small flame into a raging fire, so the Holy Spirit blows on the small SOAP flame and is turning it into a mighty fire in Africa!  

So, praise the Lord for what He has done, AND for what He is doing today!!!  Join me in prayer for God to supply the remaining finances.  We pray in faith, for we know that God will provide.  SOAP is His ministry.  It was started at His direction.  It has continued with His provision.  It will grow as He provides.   😊
