The LORD is beginning to crack open doors for us for Evangelism and we want to take full advantage. We have finally managed to have a stand and screen set-up for the projector and will begin showing at the first, the Jesus Film and as time goes on we will add some New Beginnings studies. This will be in addition to a number of families we have been showing these to around the neighborhood. This project will be taking place at the village centre and we are soliciting for your prayers to make it a success. Other smaller scale opportunities are opening up for us for individual bible studies. Our baptist neighbor has lots of questions especially about the state of the dead and the sabbath, choosing a life partner and so on. God has been gracious and placed in our hands such material as to answer those questions. (Thanks Steve and Carol)
Also last sabbath, as I was taking the children's class for a nature walk and literature distribution, we came across the Village Imam for the Islamic community. And he has given us the go ahead to come to his compound and show the animated bible films. We are praying that all the Islamic children will come out for this.
Our only setback right now is a sound system as the noise from the market might/will drown out our small speakers. Pray for this as well that we will be able to secure something that can rise above the sounds of the market and reduce distractions.
The classroom block is getting closer to its completion, later this week the carpenter will begin setting up the roof and our biggest need now will be getting the zinc for the roof. We are learning hard lessons about trusting in God. Keep the project in your prayers
In the pictures, the lady with the bandage has a very terrible sore which she is too poor to get treated at the health centre. She has had the sore for quite a while and it is taking some time for us to nurse her to health. But God is good and working with her. Since we started treating her she is feeling less and less pain on that leg. she used to have sleepless nights because of the pain, but about two weeks into our treatment she is sleeping like a baby. So much that her neighbor the first night she slept through woke her up with a bang because she thought she had died. And now that neighbor is doing bible studies with Merlisa, Praise the LORD! Further more our patient is now able to move away from her hut, without much pain which she was not able to do previously, let us keep her also in prayers, her name is Euphrencia
