Automn update by Dalene Joubert
Malawi - ministry for the 2014 book year has begun
ABOVE: Dallion (on the right) in the villages. RIGHT: Areas in Malawi where FTS has worked so far.
In March 2014 Louise Laubscher and I sat down to do some planning for the new year. At least 50 full sets of audio-visual
teaching materials are needed to engage new villages with the 192 Bible lessons, starting with Creation and working gradually
through the Old and New Testament, explaining salvation and the necessity of being discipled and discipling others. 4 outreach
trips need to be under-taken for the following to happen: a) Lay leaders of children's clubs, Sunday school groups and Bible
listening groups need to be identified. These leaders need to receive training on how to use these evangelism tools effectively,
but also receive training to help their own spiritual well-being and growth. b) Appropriate groups are started and the materials
left with the trained person. Sometimes more than one group share one set of materials in a particular village.

Megavoice - ministry partner and major distributor of GRN
materials in Southern Africa
Since 2011 Megavoice Centre for Southern Africa has partnered extensively with GRNSA to maximise the distribution of

establishing the role of GRNSA focusing on
i) the development and translation of effective Bible engagement materials in Southern Africa,
ii) the recording the above materials to different distributors of Biblical audio content on different media
iii) the supply of the above materials to current existing distribution platforms.

Megavoice sponsors Storytellers for Namibia
You remember the new recordings I have done last year October in Tsumkwe, Namibia?
Megavoice has now received a donation for 50 Storyteller players. These were sent to Grootfontein and will now be loaded
with the first stories after being field-tested. (The Storyteller is the sea greenish device above.)
A new very exciting project you may take part in:
How many retirement villages are in your city/town?
How many of the people living there are able to still read the Bible?
How many of them cannot afford it to purchase an Audio Bibles for
themselves? Or do not even know of its existence?
