ROCK Resources
Thank you for your share in what God is doing through ROCK’s multi-language multi-media resources via radio, TV, internet, social media and the printed page. Among many projects, last month, funds were sent to a translation partner in Western India to print 500 field-test copies of the KING of GLORY book which they translated and formatted in Marathi – a language spoken by 95 million people. Here’s a video from the Marathi team to show us what they did with the books. Pray for impact. As the Lord provides, this Indian media ministry hopes to print 5000 more copies to further evangelize the region and equip church leaders. One of the women who received the book said, “I was always wondering about God’s Creation and His purpose for human beings. … This great book I have now has very impressive pictures and easy to understand stories of the Bible. THANKS!” We are thankful too that Nate’s new discipleship book, PROSPER: Enjoying Intimacy with God, is now available on Amazon (as well as in ROCK’s store) and is encouraging many individuals and small groups in their walk with God.

In Senegal, construction is about to begin on a multi-purpose building (next to the new basketball court mentioned last month). This will be used for business (to help believers in ministry be self-supporting) and ministry. The Senegalese family who live in this village and oversee the ministry there wrote: “We just hosted three days of training focused on doing Christ-centered sports ministry. About 20 people came to participate in the training. I thank God that He has prepared this place for those who seek Him and for believers who want to be encouraged and plan strategies to proclaim His gospel….” In Tanzania, construction on the science labs has also begun. Keep praying that New Hope Girls’ Secondary School will have all it needs to open soon. Meanwhile in Niger, a coworker is using her skills and heart for Nigeriens to teach computer classes at the Youth Development Center. All these are opportunities to bless both young and old for time and eternity.
