THE GIFT OF HOPE BROUGHT BY THE SWISS MERCY HELICOPTER TO THE SENA PEOPLE
THE GIFT OF HOPE BROUGHT TO US THROUGH THE BIRTH OF JESUS CHRIST THIS
                                         CHRISTMAS:   MERRY CHRISTMAS FROM ALL OF US WITH
AMBASSADORS FOR CHRIST CONNECTING(AFCC)

You can see Keith in this photo , as they prepare to bring the Audio Bibles in the SENA language to the unreached people in the islands of the Zambazi River Delta with this helicopter. 
ROMANS 15:13 "  May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit."

The night sky is filled with light and the helicopter, which brought the good news to a mostly unreached and hopeless people in the Delta.  The angels brightly filled the sky the night Jesus was born bringing good news that Jesus Christ was born.  Luke 2: 8 - 14 " And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they wre terrified.   But the angel said to them,  " Do not be afraid.  I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people.  Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord.   This will be a sign to you  ; You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger."   Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel . praising God and saying  Glory to God in the highest and on earth peach to men on whom His favor rest."

SO THE PEOPLE HAVE HEARD AND REJOICE!!!!  ALL OF US HAVE HEARD AND REJOICE!!!!!
PLEASE PRAY WITH US THAT THOUSANDS MORE WILL HEAR AND RECEIVE THE HOPE THAT IS IN JESUS CHRIST THROUGH THE GIFT OF AN AUDIO BIBLE.
That means people like you can give the gift of an Audio Bible to go to the thousands that are still waiting.
In 2013 we are praying that 1000 Audio Bibles can be distributed.   MERRY CHRISTMAS
Keith & Chaplain Victoria DeKraker

What do Mozambican Women think about the Bible?

Here is a quote from a missionary we have worked with about Mozambican women." Mozambican women work really hard. Sometimes I look at them and think, " Man , I'm really a wimp." Up before the sun, they work in their fields, prepare food for their families, and generally think about the needs of others all day long. Is it possible that women like these really care about having a Bible in their own language?" This is about getting a Bible in the SENA language and another quote from one of the pastors "

"In the past, the women in my church were ashamed that they couldn't understand the Portuguese Bible when it was read out loud. Not only did they not get anything out of the Word of God, they were ashamed that they had nothing to teach to the other women, nothing to use to evangelize their neighbors."

In April 2012 this year 600 Audio Bibles were distributed in their language SENA and now they know personally what God is saying to them.  They can teach each other and evangelize in their village.  They can teach their children, which we have taken for granted having had access to our own Bible in our own language for hundreds of years!!!!  They don't have to be ashamed anymore!!!!!!

God has given us a passion and a vision to see another 300 Audio Bibles distributed in Shona, and another 200 to 300 Audio Bibles in SENA over this next year.   He has put this in our hearts and He will do it!!!!!
Pray with us as getting into the Delta of the Zambazi River in Mozambique takes the co operation of Swiss Mercy Air with their Helicopter , and the Shona Audio Bibles will take the co - operation of Mercy Air in Chimoio, Moz.   Both take more funds for the distribution.  Yet we know this is a far larger scope then just us in AFCC, this last trip took the co - operation of 8 mission organizations.  We are expecting our God , who is able to do incredible things , to do it again!!!!  Blessings & Love Chaplain Vicky

Rejoice with us & See what God is Doing

June   WOW  :  It doesn't seem like more than a month since we have been back from Mozambique, but it is.

We have received pictures of more of the distribution to women in the SHONA language.  They sing and dance after receiving the Audio Bible with such joy.  Enjoy and " Look what God has Done"   Lives are changed and people are astonished to hear God speaking to them in their own Heart Language.  

She is astonished to hear God's Word in her language!!  God is Good and He cares!!!

They are singing and dancing praising the Lord!

So many families will be touched by each of these Audio Bibles in SHONA.

More mothers learning and in turn will teach their children and God's Word will accomplish what He has
planned.  Families and villages following Jesus.

Philippians 4:4     " Rejoice in the Lord always, and again I say Rejoice!"    They are PTL!

Pictures say so much more then I could have.  We are so excited to have been privileged to bring the Audio Bibles to them in their language.  The language they pray in.  Continue to pray with us about getting more to them.   Our connection with another missionary goes out to 3,000 women , and I only could give them 63 this time.  I am praying for 200 more this year to get to Chimoio, Mozambique, Africa.
Thank you for being part of this team in your prayers, and in your funds.
Sending our Love & Hugs,

INCREDIBLE: EXTRAORDINARY

Incredible, is defined in Webster's dictionary as , too extraordinary or probable to be believed.  What an incredible , Father God,  Jesus, & Holy Spirit!!!! We were gone almost a month to Mozambique, Africa and traveled 4,500 miles in about 11 days.  We flew to JoBurg, South Africa after flying up from Orlando, Fl. to Atlanta, Georgia.  The segment from Atlanta to JoBurg alone was 16 hrs. and about 25min.  to South Africa. I'm telling you this, because we made it through with all the baggage safely & healthy. We just want you all to know how " Incredible "  this distribution, which is the largest one to date went.  It took almost 2yrs. of planning and included 8 mission organizations to make it all happen.  Swiss Mercy Air and their helicopter and plus their pilot, Matthias Reuter,  Mercy Air with hospitality in Chimoio, Moz Ron & Barb Wayner., ASAM ministries out of Canada, Audio Scripture Ministries with Chad Vanden Bosch,  YWAM in Marromeu, Moz. with Shephan as he director and interpreter , Ambassadors for Christ Connecting, and then the National Director of Crown of Victory Sound Studios in Xai, Xai, Moz.  This is just how the body of Christ needs to work and did together!  Of the 835 Audio Bibles went out in Shona, Sena, and Chawbo, and already just one week after the distribution 5 people had already given their hearts to Jesus.  The SENA went out into the villages located in the Delta of the Zambazi River in Mozambique where it meets the Indian Ocean.  Keith & Chad, Sergio, Shephan, and the pilot, Matthias  flew two days and visited 8 villages and 8 islands.  There was great joy after receiving them, and singing & dancing erupted everywhere.  We will post some pictures soon.
Thank you for all of you partnering with AFCC to do this incredible distribution  and  all your prayers.

God is at Work!!! It is the frontlines in Mozambique, Africa!!! A new language is being recorded . First the four gospels, and then Genesis. In this group of Muslims in the Northern part of Mozambique, where 6million Haven't heard about Jesus and eternal life & hope, only 10 Christians exist. Of those 10 , 2 are presently reading and recording their language in the Gospels. How God has things planned is amazing! So out of the 10 , He has two who are readers and available to come down to Xai Xai to the sound studio to record. Praise the Lord , how wonderful is our God and His ways. Pray that the Audio Bibles in their language get to the right people, and new believers are raised up and new churches are formed. Pray for the protection of these few believers there in Mozambique. Pray for the sound studio" Crown of Victory" and the languages they are doing and the tech. people doing them. Sergio, and Steve, as well as the missionary , Chad Vanden Bosch. We need prayer also as we are planning and preparing to leave for Mozambique on March 28th and then driving into Xai Xai, and further North to Chimoio, and Marrameu. This will be the distribution of the SENA language, into the remote Delta area with the 22 islands, at the mouth of the Zambaizee River. This has been a spiritual battle for our work to get done, and we need personal prayer for our health & protection. Our family has been attacked with stuggles and the Lord is faithfull to see us through. Keep praying for our strength, being established strong in the Lord and the strength of His might , that we can stand against the wiles of the devil. Eph. 6 Our grandson, Tyler, needs prayer to be encouraged as the Muscular Dystophy has advanced in his body.. He now has a hospital bed so he can get to a sitting position. This is very hard on Heidi & Kelvin. Dylan , still needs prayer for his emotional problems and growth in the Lord. We will update you more on what will be happening in Africa later.
In His Plans & Times,
Keith & Chaplain Vicky
