On the same day that the broiler chicks were placed at Ebenezer, Beyond Belief placed 3551 layer chickens into the wider Natisa community. Nine farmers were selected and each farmer received 395 layers. The farmers had worked extremely hard to be ready in time for the layers. They were an excellent example of what it means to be faithful with little. Where others may have complained that they did not have the right equipment or material to build their chicken houses, these farmers used what they had at their disposal to build some very good coops. As each farmer received their chickens they were prayed with. Beyond Belief will use the chickens to bring the gospel into the community. The farmers will need to attend training once a week, and there will be a very strong spiritual aspect to the training. In addition, Beyond Belief had just employed a Missionary Field Officer, Mxwayisi Dube from Crossroads Community Church, who will meet with farmers daily and make sure that the chickens are doing well and also minster to the farmers.
We pray for God’s provision and protection over the farmers and their chickens.
