Updates From Bobby Bonner

Greetings Gang! I pray you are all doing well in Jesus name! Thank you all so much for your prayers for me and my health! I am not 100% but feeling much better than I was a couple weeks ago! God is answering your prayers!


Today has been a day of looking back over my life and remembering the countless times I have been very close to death. BUT GOD! I have so much to be thankful for, and I give God all of the glory!

Even before going to Africa- facing malaria, black water fever, disease, bandits, animals, snakes, vehicle disasters. Backing up to before salvation on into my early childhood, going into caves, rattlesnakes, wrecks on motorcycle, being thrown out of back of truck landing on my head, falling off buildings, taking drugs, waking up with no memory with blood all over me. Swallowing too many pills, and waking up 3 days later. Almost drowning several times.

Now the many years in Africa God graciously brought me through 4 heart attacks, stents, by-pass surgery, valve replacement, paddles put on me several times, etc..

I thank you Jesus for your grace, your mercy even before becoming born again! Saved at 22- You are my King, my Lord, my Savior, and You are indeed longsuffering!



I have been blessed! TO GOD BE THE GLORY...BALESA BA CHINDIKWE...

Thank you to all my brothers in sisters in Christ who have partnered with us all these 40 plus years. You have prayed, given financially, worked with us, and have given your very lives to join in what God had us to do! Thank you Churches that have partnered with us as well. The trump has not sounded yet! There is much work to still be done for His Glory! Oh GOD HAS BEEN AND IS STILL GOOD. We love you all so much!

To God be the GLORY!


Back in March we shared in our newsletter that my wife Becky has been painting and raising money to purchase an ambulance for the rural health clinic there at Kafulafuta Baptist Mission.

She recently had her very first art show here in Missouri in March. Many of you came to this event and or purchased her art to raise money for this cause!


The goal was to raise $15,000 to purchase an ambulance for the community in Africa!

Becky shared that in her time as a missionary in Africa, she noticed most people didn't have cars or even a bicycle to get around in.

So when somebody was sick, the hospital would have to send a vehicle, which was usually a pickup truck with mattress in the bed to transport the patient.

"That's one of the burdens on my husbands heart and on my heart," Bonner said. "Is to help them out with a vehicle that they can have better transport for these dear people that need to get help."

To God be the glory ALL OF THE FUNDS came in to purchase this "ambulance"




LOOK WHAT GOD HAS DONE!!


Thank You all so much for your love for the Lord and giving to Him to further His Kingdom!
