Trailblazer, Tony Smits Bible College and Traillblazer Ministries Australasia, China, India

and Africa -- Impacting Generations with the Light of the Word

Dear Brother and Sisters

We continue to develop young people in the

Word of God with our Discipleship course. The

book is being used in many countries now. In

China we use this study to help in the

development of Bible teachers. Here is Happy

teaching his first lesson from our book. The

book is set out with topics, statements and

questions, which the trainee uses as he or she

teaches.

Only this week in New Zealand we had two

sister complete the first certificate in

Discipleship.

Elizabeth Hinekura Isaacs and Lillian Carroll

We were also blessed this month with the

Visit of Mrs Chomba 3rd

from the left, the

mother of Chisanga 2nd

from the left, and

their friend from Zambia, Africa. Great

and powerful preaching.

Our English training classes

still continue to develop.

Making bread, pasties, meat

pies and egg/bacon pies was

also fun this month.

On the 7th

July 2015, I arrived in Zhengzhou in Henan in that lies in east central China and

north of Changsha where we live. It is where the second son of James Hudson Taylor,

Frederick Howard Taylor came and introduced Christ to the people. Howard was the first

missionary to visit Zhengzhou in Henan. Henan has a population of 265 to 300 million people

and has the largest Christian population in China. Hudson Taylor had said it was a difficult

area but the Church has grown even with intense persecution. It was from this area many

Chinese became missionaries to the rest of China.

Twenty years ago I was praying for Henan and for the Spirit of

God to keep moving powerfully and now it’s a surreal felling to

be here at long last, also adding to that we live in Changsha

where Hudson Taylor was based.

We have a young Chinese couple here Jerry and Beth, who have

started a work here. We left Zhengzhou travelling north and

drove for one and half hours and arrived at Jiaozuo a small city of

four million people, to attend a meeting, six and half hours after

leaving Changsha with no dinner we went into a meeting of about

50 vibrant Christian in worship. Words of knowledge were

flowing as we shared on the Kingdom of God. A great response

and they want have more meetings.

On the 8th

July 2015, I spent early part of the day resting and

after lunch we

went to see the

channel that was

built to take water

to Beijing, but the

locals don’t use it

because it is too expensive.

In the afternoon we had an English class

with a large group of Children.

In the evening we had a meeting with a couple who

wanted a baby and we prayed for them after

explaining some points of Scripture. Following this

we went to a man’s home who had cancer and was

lying on the couch. We anointed him with oil and

prayed for Him along his wife too,

We travelled for three and half hours to Xiangxan,

Xuchang, Henan, South East of Jiaozuo and had a meeting in a small country town. We had

about 20 people come to the meeting.

This is the Taohuayu Bridge

crossing the Yellow River. Yes it

is almost 8 kilometres long.

On the 12th

July, we returned from

Xiangxan on Sunday morning.

Sunday evening we had a meeting

in Jiaozuo with around 80 people

attending. We preached

on the pearl of God is

His Kingdom! The

Kingdom has the King

and His subjects and all

have a part to play. It is a

symbiotic relationship.

More than 50 people

received Jesus because

they could see that it is

Jesus who paid for them.

People were in 4 rooms listening to the preaching.

Over the six meeting we may have seen a 120 different

people with about 60 being saved. We also saw a

women’s leg grow or become even with some prayer.

One women who had been a singer but after an operation

her voice was very course, We prayed for 3 times over 3

nights and

she gave a

testimony of

how she felt

better and I

said sing which she did and sounded great and she

burst into tears and so did a few others.

It was also lovely to catch up with one of our past

Bible College students Ruth with her baby. We

had lunch together with Jerry and Beth.

Upon saying to the people I was leaving many

showed emotions as they said good bye. The

Spirit of God was moving in power and love.

See I do, do some teaching.

It appears that I am going back to teaching in

a University, as support has reduced and cost

of living going up. It will cut down much of

my travel but it is all well with our souls. It is

one of the best Universities in China. They

want me to develop a training course to help

Chinee student go overseas.

We have a NEED of support

We have by the grace of God financed the buying of land to build a

church and we have helped with finances for building of a school for

little children in Uganda Africa.

We have supported many campuses with computers, scanners and

printers to aid in their establishment of their campus in Pakistan,

Uganda, Kenya, Malawi and Ghana. We are sending almost 40

computers into Africa for Bible College campuses and 2 primary

schools in August 2015.

We have also help with breeding programs and taught about incubation of eggs.

In China we have also help supported pastors financially to get started. We have also sent

many Books of studies to these countries to establish a College Library. We need prayers and

support.

Another Disciple of Tony Smits, Mike Tyrrell is in Uganda where

he has about 21 acres of land and we are hoping for support to

build a physical campus. Stage one class rooms is $10,000 but we

would need many thousands of dollars to establish a full college.

Stage two a library $5000 also another $15,000 for stage three,

chapel and conference room. The classrooms would be used as a

place of worship too.

This development will give us a strong foothold in Africa. Help us

to get this going.

We have set up this link if you desire to support us. You may set

up a monthly payment using you master cards etc. Or make a one off gift.

Please click on this link and start helping.

We will now look at some of our campuses around the world reports. We are doing a little

but all these wonderful people are doing so much, please pray for them.

Malawi

Thanks very much Dad for the Laptop and Printer

Support

Yes indeed, some more equipment are needed, and

also an income earner such as the livestock

production as is done in some campuses of

Traillblazer Ministries, so will it be helpful to Malawi

Am praying to that some more campuses will be

opened here in Malawi in all 4 regions.

Am compiling the reports and so soon to put them in the dropbox before the last minute.

Thanks for your patience, love on me, and zeal in the work for the Lord. We are praying for

your family needs too.

Your son, REV KR CHILEWA, MALAWI/AFRICA CAMPUS

Kenya

Dear Dr.Ian,

We hope you are doing on well with the ministry work. It is a privilege to have you a good

friend in the lord.

In our community are many churches but not hearkening to the voice of God. Many people

are misled. It is a good move that Julie has done to us here by starting a church that will allow

people to read and interpret the bible.

We also thank you a lot for considering us vital to give us a bible college. To assure you if

God will help me assist the first lot to complete the certificate well, will be a great change to

the entire community. We are focusing this as projects that will enable light of Jesus Christ

penetrate our community.

Our sincere request this hour you pray for me and the small church here.

We are in lack of bibles which are expensive to purchase. We too lack good shelter and seats

for our church proceeds; also we need the church instruments. This just to inform you the

areas we could need aid if possible. Therefore we request for your powerful prayers for God

to do His will to us here and many other churches of same faith.

PST. ERICK

Kenya - Nairobi

Say that 50 members from the Traillblazer Tony Smits Bible College attended a P1

graduation event at Kilimambogo where 2 of our members are students and were graduating.

This concurred with our monthly voluntary community service event.

This month, we were leading the campaign of saving our water towers and Mt. Kilimambogo

was our target. We do this to reach out to the society and preach the Good News of Jesus and

to spread the peace message.

It is our role as Traillblazer Youth for Christ to lead other youths in our country to do this

bearing in mind that our country has been hit by current spate of terror attacks.

And don’t be surprised to get a few yawns in response. Could there be a less-interesting

topic? Some might ask. But explain that the members from 13 counties spanning Nairobi,

Central, Rift Valley, Nyanza as well as Coast Provinces learned how to protect the mission of

our Bible College.

The 5-hour event presented a variety of guidelines on safety, liability issues, protecting

children and young people, and yes, insurance. “But holding an insurance policy is not the

answer to risk management”, said Mr. Ocharo, a former insurance company chief risk

management officer. “Insurance is the broom that comes to clean up the mess after the loss

has occurred. If somebody’s lost their life because of negligence of the supervision of an

activity, no amount of dollars will bring that life back,” he added, explaining why loss

prevention is very important.

As President of Traillblazer Tony Smits Bible College Kenya I hailed him since I often link

risk management with stewardship in presentations to local churches, since both are

important ways of managing resources for ministry.

The fewer losses you sustain the more money there is for the mission of the college.

Since I left earlier to lead our Voluntary work around Mt. Kilimambogo, I must now leave

you with Sent’s report of what transpired thereon.

Angel Sent Njeri’s report

This event has given me tools and made me more aware of potential dangers and preventative

measures. It has made me more proactive since our country is one with a lot of risks in terms

of colleges and churches built in danger-prone areas.

As a leader, am very concerned about the potential for loss of life and how to mitigate that

risk. As Ian Traill notes in his leadership notes, several leadership aspects arose during this

event proving once again that leadership is not only about, “how you do things, but also what

kind of person you are.”

Ian challenges readers to ask themselves, “What kind of person does God call me to be?”

I try hard not to write about him since he is only a servant of our holy God, but, when it

comes to excellence I must quote him in one of Year One books that, “Don’t try to do a good

thing, do God’s thing, it is always good.” High five to

our dad Ian!

See our students excel all-round!

Onyango walks off the dais after receiving his P1

Certificate at the Kilimambogo.

student with her ‘Best in sciences award.’

I don’t know what your picture of God is at the moment. But I do know

that if you are in the least afraid of Him,

angry at Him, uneasy around Him, it is

because the separation of sin is keeping

you from seeing Him as He really is.

Traillblazer Tony Smits Bible College

Kenya has the information you need to see

what has happened in the past so you can

learn and train local church leaders around

your area, at any level to deal with any

risk that may affect your church’s work.

Motivation is not rivalry to be the best, but because God’s

work merits excellence.

Because of what I have learned so far, when I attend such events I get to understand that we

need to extend leadership’s influence a every level of the church and/or college.

We need to have moral authority for those who serve and belong to us, so we can take care of

our members who are of the highest value.

Everything we talk about is ministry. I tell the Traillblazer world that our ministry is

protecting yours.

Well known institutions like Kilimambogo are united in their goals of serving society as

centers of higher learning, advancing knowledge and research, and challenging their students

to develop their full intellectual and human potential. But why should we make such an

investment in education?

Our Purpose

Traillblazer Tony Smits Bible College Kenya is also deeply committed to quality

education.Simply put, it is because we want our children, youth and adults to gain more than

what the world can offer them. Higher than the highest human thought can reach is God’s

ideal for His children. The world has had its great teachers, men of giant intellect and

extensive research, men whose utterances have stimulated thought and opened to view vast

fields of knowledge….but there is One who stands higher than they. Every gleam of thought,

every flash of intellect, is from the Light of the world.

So, while the educational systems of the world seek to impart knowledge, Traillblazer Tony

Smits Bible Colleges seek to acquaint students with the Source of all knowledge.

If anything, Traillblazer Ministries has provided me a meaningful worldview built around

Creation, the fall, redemption, and re-creation derived from the Bible and the inspired counsel

of Dr, Ian Traill.

Within the context of this worldview, service to God and others is emphasized. Restoration of

the image of God in every human being is the object of education and life. It strengthens

character, fortifies the mind against evil and prepares the learner for service to God and

others.

Vice-chairperson Angel Sent Njeri far right

poses for a photo with students L-R: Fortune

Kawere, James Mwendia Gabriel Mucheru,

Fred M, Vincent Muriuki and Hellen during

the Function.

Our core philosophy is that education should

be redemptive, for the purpose of restoring

human beings to the image of God. Mental,

physical, social and spiritual health, intellectual growth and service to humanity are the

essential core values.

By focusing on the important mission of providing a biblically based, holistic, mission-

driven educational experience, Traillblazer Tony Smits Bible College Kenya has grown from

a small Vintraillblazer’s Class to a countrywide network of 31 churches as witnessed in our

enrollments. Many students ranging from peasant to church leaders have benefited from the

Year One course which we pray that some of you will find time to attend our graduation later.

We pray that many will go on to serve as pastors, relief workers and in other service-oriented

capacities.

Word from exam’s desk

When our campus assists students that is a magnificent thing! We have over 150

students.

Whenever possible, I encourage churches that enrol with us to have at least one

laptop and scanner to help them keep their records-even if it is second-hand ones.

I once shared with a friend a second-hand laptop and learned the basic skills of a

computer. It has been shown that limited resources provide very good scholars

and that students aren’t educationally deprived in what may appear to be a

limited arrangement.

In remote areas where there are many poor students, it may not be practical for every student

to scan his/her exam in time. For example a certain church I attended, they don’t have their

own laptop leave alone a scanner. This delays our work.

Let’s renew our creative ways to encourage our very own students to receive many benefits

studying under Traillblazer Ministries.

We only have one laptop and having so many students, we are praying for two more laptops,

a 3 in 1 printer copier scanner.

Many of our Bible School students are studying on secular campuses. There can be some

great advantages in that these students can be valuable witnesses to many people at their

institutions. However, unless we as a ministry take care of these young people and engage

them in mission outreach scheme and training, they will often be overwhelmed by their

secular environments, unless they are deeply committed staying close to Jesus.

Thank you and God bless you all.
