We have made it through Holi. It was very interesting to see the bonfires in the middle of the streets and people painted head to toe in colors of paint.
But the real reasons we are here are to see the church planters and pastors trained in Bible Study. They are desiring to know how to study the Bible. Their Bibles do not have concordances, maps, references or anything to help them know how to study the Bible more effectively. We are teaching them basic observation, interpretation and application methods. They are really lighting up when they hear the concepts and see the practicle examples we help them with from the Word of God. We are truly blesse din the States to have the resources that we have, for Bible Study tools.
The Ms are very thankful for the support and the fellowship. We have been blessed to be with them. We are truly blessed to have them on this side leading the way. We need to figure out more creative ways to lend our support and encouragement from the States. They are so appreciative.
Please continue to pray for health. We are all very tired and some are weary in their body from the food. Our stomachs are not as strong as the Ms. Please pray that God will continue to move in a mighty way here in the area we are serving. Of the 25 church leaders and pastors we trained yesterday, there are over 600 people waiting to be baptized in Christ. Theses folks have renounced everything to follow Christ. As a result, many families have renounced them as children, husbands, and wives. God, please give them strength to carry on.
Please forgive the typos and sentence fragments. There is a line of people waiting to use the one computer we have at our fingertips. See you stateside.
