What’s happening at Sophia Fellowship

January - 2025

Click on the news link for an update on political unrest continuing in Mozambique.

Good News: The pastors continue to meet weekly to study. They practice spiritual formation, closeness, and harmony with the Holy Spirit through Welcoming Prayer.

Continue to pray as people are recovering from the storm. Many people have lost their clothes, homes, and phones. Many have not been able to return to work. Food is becoming more available, however, businesses are keeping food prices high. If you would like to donate to the storm recovery efforts or continued pastoral training and development, click the link below, and designate your preference.

November - 2024

Pastoral training continues. The team of seven pastors and ministers have completed their Basic Biblical Counseling and Contemplative Prayer courses. Next, we will take a break from coursework as we appropriate what we’ve learned in our church lives, our home lives, and our daily walk with Christ in the world. We are reading through Welcoming Prayer to stay present with the Lord through the 24-hour day, submitting every thought to Christ, and allowing the words of Galatians 2:20 to come alive in us. Beginning in January, we will start our last planned course - Leadership. God willing, we can present certificates in person next year.

It continues to be tough times in Mozambique. They dealt with insurgents, incredible violence and persecution, and now an uprising and strike against election results. Even this has led to violence. Striking means no income in a time where putting food on the table is already more of a challenge than most of us can fathom.

We will put some links to familiar news sources below so you can get caught up with and pray for this country and the men and women serving God, being a light to all they encounter.
