Thank you so much for keeping us in your thoughts and prayers as we continue the work of the ministry here in South Africa.
Ministry Update and 2025 Vision:
I’ve put together a short slideshow video highlighting the past three years of ministry here in South Africa. While we’ve stepped out of a couple of the works featured in the video and transitioned into the new ministry at Newton Park Baptist Church, we are excited to see what God has in store for 2025. Thank you for your partnership in this gospel ministry. Your support is an investment in eternity, and we pray that much fruit will abound to your account for the glory of God.

Baptism and Church Leadership:
We praise the Lord for the baptism of Siyolise Waka, a 17-year-old young man, who took the step of faith and was baptized last month at Newton Park Baptist Church. Please pray for the church leadership as they continue to minister in our absence, particularly for Phakamani Mbuda and Christopher Scott, who will be handling much of the preaching and teaching.

Praises and Answered Prayers:
We are rejoicing in God’s faithfulness in answering our prayers concerning our co-laborers’ visa situations. The Southards (my nephew and his wife) were granted their 3-year visas! While they are still seeking answers regarding some health challenges that Ashley is facing, we are trusting the Lord for healing and clarity. Please continue to pray with us for answers, so they can join us here in South Africa and serve alongside us. Their current plan is to return in February.
Additionally, we praise God that Joy Wahl, who will be joining us as a teacher at BBA starting January 6th, was also granted her 3-year visa. Joy will be the first American missionary teacher to work with us to also have her qualifications approved by the South African Qualifications Authority (SAQA)! This has been a long journey, but we are grateful for God’s grace in this process.

Transport Update:
We are excited to share that we have received $15,221 towards the purchase of a new transport van for the Academy. Thank you to all who have contributed to this need! As we prepare to return to South Africa on January 6th, we are praying that God will provide the remaining funds needed to complete the purchase. We are still trusting for another $15,000 to reach our goal, and we ask for your continued prayers as we trust God for this miracle.

Once again, thank you for all you do in supporting the work here. We are truly grateful for your fellowship in the gospel. Wishing you a very Merry Christmas and a blessed New Year!
In Christ,
Jeremy and Rebekah Hall
