MISSIONARIES HENRY & MITZI NEL

Dear Harvest Partners - Greetings in Jesus Name.

As Mitzi and I stood amongst the sea of little impoverished, undernourished and ill-clad school children, some 2500, most of whom are orphans and H.I.V sufferers, our foremost desire was, IF ONLY YOU AS A PARTNER COULD BE WITH US AND WITNESS WHAT YOUR FAITHFUL MONTHLY PRAYERFUL AND FINANCIAL PARTNERSHIP IS ACCOMPLISHING, by way of feeding these precious children and preaching the Gospel to them.

MITZI MINISTERING AT THE SCHOOL ASSEMBLY:  At one of the schools, the principal set up an assembly gathering, some 600 children were present (Primary School).  Mitzi preached an inspiring message, scores of children committed their lives to Christ.  We spent several days in the Rural Bush Area, working with the Food Distribution Programme.

APPEAL FOR SUGAR AND SALT: Previous Food Distribution programs only provided Maize Meal. On this occasion (8) eight school Principals appealed to us for Sugar and Salt, the children needed the Maize Meal Porridge to be tasty and palatable.  I did not have the additional US$ 875 to buy this luxury.  I borrowed the money and we purchased the sugar and salt.  The Principals and Teaching Staff were ecstatic.

REPAYMENT OF LOAN: Please help us to repay the loan.

GENERAL NEWS:   We have just arrived in Cape Town - South Africa, have had to move homes, the owners sold the one we were renting.

MEDICAL CHECKS: Mitzi is to have Surgery and I need to go for a Check Up.

CONTINUED PARTNERSHIP SUPPORT APPEAL: We are unable to come to the USA at this time.  We need to come to RENEW FAITH PROMISES AND ENLIST ADDITIONAL PARTNERS.

THE APPEAL: Mitzi and I humbly and spiritually appeal TO YOU.  Personally, and to the respective Assemblies to please continue your faithful monthly support.  Please keep us in the Field, as your missionaries to a Dying Nation.

CONTACTABLE: We are now contactable in South Africa at Phone/Fax 27-21-913-9614 it would be wonderful to receive a phone call or fax.  We will arrange a personal email address sometime in the future, for the present use hpnel@telkomsa.net. 

PHOTOS: I will be mailing photos of the Humanitarian School Feeding Program so as to bless and inspire you with joy as you see what your partnership is accomplishing.

 Your Servants to the People of Zimbabwe,

Henry & Mitzi
