Witnesses for the Almighty
The Adventist School in Lassin is made up of of our staff of teachers from the church and students of various religions. These include Roman Catholic, Muslim, Baptist. We teach them daily from the word of God, tell them Bible stories accompanied with felt visuals.
Most of them especially the Roman Catholics worship idols. There is this one student whom the other students were making fun of because her family's home is filled with idols and people come to worship these idols. We have been teaching the students about worshiping God alone.
The students are excited to learn about God and their enthusiasm in worshiping daily is remarkable. We also encourage and teach them to go and witness the things that they learn to their family members and friends.
The Muslim children learn about Jesus and they love Him. They have begun to sing about Jesus as we taught them to do. They request often to see the Jesus film. We gave them a few Bibles and Steps to Christ.
One of the Muslim students said that the one that I gave the Bible to her name is Umme, just before they ate their meal at supper time, she read the Lord's prayer from the Bible and then they ate. Praise the Lord.
When the students visit the house we show films from the New Beginning series. So daily we witness to these children that the Lord has given in different ways. We also reach out to parents at teachers meetings, when we visit the homes of the student's parents as well.
When a child gets sick we visit the parents and instruct them how to care for the problem with God's remedies in nature. There was this one boy who had swollen feet from jiggers, that enter into the feet when barefooted. It eats up the flesh and infects the area. When they enter you can't see it but when it has eaten flesh it grows. So he got many of these jiggers into his feet. He even had problems walking to go to school.
We visited his mom and one of the local teachers translated to her in her native language. The local teacher explained to her that God has given us little Pickings to take care of and we are responsible for them. She explained the remedy we gave her; soak Aloe Vera in warm water and let him soak his feet twice a day in the warm Aloe Vera water for 15 minutes each soak. We gave her some charcoal for him to drink. In a matter of a week the student was all better. The swelling went down the jiggers died, and he looked brighter, and walked faster to school daily. He verbalized that he felt better.
However, as we provide the parents with these remedies and they see the results we present to them Jesus Christ. PLEASE KEEP THE PARENTS, STAFF, STUDENTS of the school in your prayers so that people may come out of sin and have relationship with God.
Praise Him with all our hearts. Amen.
