Gene and Frances Shackelford
Gene and Frances have been involved with CBSI in Mozambique since its beginning
in 2000. Since those initial classes in the capital city of Maputo the ministry
has spread to 200 classes in 5 other provinces in the country. Two other provinces
will be added in 2010. CBSI has had a major impact in the very rural “bush”
areas where ancestral worship is the major religion. The Mozambican CBSI leadership
have taken an active role in shaping the content and format of lesson structure
in response to the needs of the various groups from educated literate classes in
urban areas to barely literate groups in the bush. It has been a great investment
of their retirement years to have had the joy of witnessing firsthand the life changing
power of the light of the Word of God in dark areas.
