Mainah's Examination
This year will be Pastor Agrippa's 20th year in the ministry and his 10th year of coming to America to preach each spring. Please pray a special prayer for him and Mainah as they prepare to come here together. Mainah's heart's desire is to personally thank all the people that prayed for her and supported her financially during her illness. Please pray that the US Embassy will allow both of them to come here this year.
Pastor Agrippa and Mainah are making plans to be here the month of March. We are now booking him in churches. If you would like to have him this year in your church please call me at 803 640-2954.
If you would like to help Pastor Agrippa and Maniah financially please send all donations to Impact Ministries, PO Box 5431, Aiken, SC 29804
Also, a doctor in Aiken has agreed to examine Mainah while she is here (at no charge) to make sure she is cancer free. Please pray that all of this takes place and God will be glorified in it all.
February 5 at 8:45 AM is their appointment with the Embassy. Since that is 2:45 AM here please pray before you go to bed on February 4.
We just received the email below from Pastor Agrippa.
Yours in Christ Jesus,
Ann

2009 Greetings
Ann, Lynn & Churches in SC,
Greetings to you all in the beginning of year 2009!
Congratulations we have crossed over to 2009. We praise God that He has allowed us to be in good health through His everlasting mercies. 2008 was not an easy year to us as a family as well as the Ministry and the Nation at large. We experienced the most difficult time in history. Everything just fell apart. Our health and education came to a standstill, people died and are still dying of hunger. We are just seeing His grace daily.
MINISTRY:-We thank God for a breakthrough in spite of all these hardships. We managed to train 827 Pastors and Church Leaders in Bible Training Centre in 42 schools of which 417 graduated before the end of the year. We also trained 271 Pastors, Church Leaders and ordinary members in Evangelism Explosion so that they can go out and win souls. During the process we presented the gospel to 1753 people and 1342 accepted Jesus as Lord of their lives. We praise the Lord for this great harvest in hard times like these. The mind can not understand how all this took place.
The Orphans Program:- We thank God for allowing us to minister to the lives of 426 orphans through school fees payment and also meeting some of their personal needs. It had been not easy to do this but God helped us to go through. Many organizations failed to meet the needs of these orphans due to political constraints but with us it was done by His grace. Most schools were affected by the exodus of teachers who left teaching and sort greener pastures elsewhere. Pupils were left by themselves without anyone to assist them. Thank you very much for your support in prayers and in giving, had it been not for you, we would not have achieved all this. God used you as His hand of assistance in this nation.
Family Challenges:- My wife Mainah had the worst year in her lifetime as she was hospitalized for four months in South Africa hospitals. First of all she was hospitalized for 3 days at Links Field hospital, then 4 months in Glynnwood Oncology Hospital where she was treated cancer. She is out of hospital now and she will go back on the 28th January 2009. We are not sure what their conclusion will be in the whole matter. The rest of the family is doing well with 5 of them now living in South Africa. Bongani (20) is doing his studies in Electronics Engineering at Tshwane University of Technology and this will be his second year. Nothando, the youngest is beginning her Secondary education at Girls College which is a private school. This is the most expensive college but I have no choice since thus the only place where she can obtain better education.
Please pray for us in ministry that God opens doors for support and also pray for our family as we continue in the struggles that we face.
God bless you. Pastor Agrippa Dube

Christmas Letter
Seasonal greetings to you all my family in the USA.
Thus far our Lord has taken us to the end of this difficult year I have ever had. You know very well that Mainah had her worst year as for the first time she had been hospitalized for four months after having a healthier life for 52 years. The only time she had been in hospital was when she was giving birth to our seven children.
We thank God that she has gone through this and come out in a miraculous way. As the doctor in South Africa said when he saw her coming for a review, "you are a living miracle, you were dead when you came here, I did not think you will make it" Now Mainah is fine though she can still sense some bit of pain over chemotherapy and bracky therapy. She also lost her mother whilst in the process and our mother in USA "Daisy" all these were challenges.
Brother and sister in all this we are so thankful because you stood with us. There is no time where I needed your help and you were not there to assist. It was also a miracle for you to raise all the amount you raised and which was enough for the task that was before us. May the good Lord bless you richly. Now I have come to the end of the year with great relief that I owe nobody anything. Only what remains is to glorify the name of my Lord.
Brother and sister we now look forward for next year. My USA Visa expires in January 2009, I pray that I will be able to get another one as well as Mainah so that we may come there in March for ministry and also to thank God together with you for what He has done for us. Give my love to all my family members, Ilesha, Michael, Kelsy, Jonathan and Kara, Larry and Brenda. Also pass my love to all church member at Heights and all churches that support us.
My prayer for next challenges are as follows:My children are now at High School:-Bongani (20 years) is at University in Pretoria doing electronics Engineering and I need to pay US$12 000.00 and Nothando is doing her first year in High School, she will be attending a private school since the government schools have no teachers. At this school I will be paying
US$1 000.00 per term and there are three terms. This brings me to US$3 000.00. All this I just trust the Lord's provision. Thank you my beloved ones.
God bless you. Agrippa Dube

COMMUNICATION, FINALLY
Mainah is continuing getting better. I hope the Lord is healing her. She has gained now. Thank you for the money that you sent to Abednicho, he got it though it was when I had already left. I have applied for my new passport which will be out in three weeks time. I used all the money which I had in possession and am left with nothing. I just pray that nothing that will need money will happen. NO FUEL! NO MONEY! God bless you. Agrippa Dube
