PRAY FOR THE UNREACHED PEOPLE OF THE DAY
www.unreachedoftheday.org
Soninke, Sarakole of Gambia
Everyone occupies a place in the Soninke social organization. Being
king or a smith was not by choice, it was an inherited position. This
hierarchy is very important in Soninke culture. This structural social
organization is divided into three levels. The highest levels are the rulers and priests and educators, and the lowest level is the slaves which
form the major part of the labor force. The different Soninke social
classes do not marry one another. The Soninke were one of the first
West African ethnic groups to convert to Islam.
Ministry Obstacles
The social structure within Soninke society may inhibit the flow of the
Gospel when it comes.
Outreach Ideas
Pray that some of the Christian tribes in Gambia will be led to take the
Gospel of Christ to the Soninke people. Pray that any tribal hostilities
will be overcome.
Pray for the followers of Christ
There may be a few followers of Jesus among the Soninke tribe of
Gambia, but even this much isn't certain. Pray the Lord is now preparing hearts to receive the good news of Christ when it comes to them.
Pray for the entire people group
Pray the Soninke people will have adequate medical care, clean water,
and schools for their children.
Scripture Focus
"The time is coming to gather all nations and tongues. And they shall
come and see My glory." Isaiah 66:18

Baptist Mid-Missions, Peru
As the joke says, “It’s August?” “Wasn’t it July just 3 minutes ago?”
That sums up the months of July and August, they flew by in a flash.
But they were jam-packed full of great blessings, let us share them
with you.
At the end of July we were joined by a group of teens from Calvary
Baptist Church in Ypsilanti, MI. These teens come every two years to
present sports evangelism in the neighborhood parks. Many Peruvian
children, teens, and adults heard the good news of salvation and many
decisions were made. We are so thankful for these teens that want to
come and minster and we are excited to share with them what missionary life is all about.
The end of July brings the annual winter youth retreat at camp. The
youth always look forward to these 3 special days of classes and competition. What a joy it is to work with them! David taught 2 classes on
“Who should I Marry?” He also translated for the main speaker.
Kandie helped in the kitchen preparing meals for 120 people. Abigail
was a camper and Jacob enjoyed spending the days with his cousins
back in Trujillo.
August brought us another huge blessing a visit by a group from Faith
Baptist church in Salisbury, Maryland. This group dedicated their time
to building a pastoral intern apartment on the roof of our church building. The men are skilled in construction and the ladies painted in the
church building as well as other jobs. Of course, it isn’t all work. We
did spend one full day of sightseeing and enjoying fellowship together.
Our church people are thrilled when groups come and love being involved with them.
Second semester Bible college classes are in full swing with 52 students
studying. David is teaching 3 classes this semester. School at home
has also started. Abigail is now a senior and Jacob is a freshman. On
the college front, Benjamin is beginning his junior year and Rebekah is
beginning her freshman year, both at Faith Baptist Bible college in Ankeny, Iowa.
Yes our winter break did fly by but it was full of blessings. We are now
beginning to make plans for our furlough year. We can’t wait to share
with you personally how God is blessing His work here in Peru.
