Experiencing Hunger

Our efforts in Cabana continue to build on the efforts of those who have come before us. God has used all of the previous teams to help create a hunger from our friends in Cabana to know about The Bible so that they can have a relationship with God. They want to know the truth and they believe that they can find that truth in the Bible. We had our first group meeting on Tuesday. Eight of our friends attended. We used The Story evangelism outline with the hope that they will learn to see God's redeeming work at work in the Bible stories but also in their own lives. We discuss a Bible story by using 5 questions that will help teach them how to study on their own. On Tuesday night we had six in attendance but 4 of the people were new. On Wednesday night we had 14 attend with 5 of those being a Quechua family and their two neighbors who had heard about what was happening and wanted to see for themselves. Each night our discussions and methods improved. Please continue to pray for our friends Manuel, Edgar, David, Eufrasina, Deysi, Rosendo and Irene as they study God's Word. Pray for Anthony and Merly - that God will use our team to build relationships through these two young people with hopes of engaging the youth of Cabana. Continue to pray for our team. They have a little more than two weeks left in the village. They will need God's help to keep them strong spiritually and physically. They are an amazing group of people! Thanks for your prayers and encouragement. God's glory is being revealed in Cabana.
