God is at work!

God is at work!


It is impossible to post all about God´s activity from yesterday. It was a full day of experiencing His leading. We know this is true because the events of yesterday were not in our daily plan.

We walked to the plaza in hopes of seeing some of our friends. We had barely sat down when David walked into the plaza. We spent time with him at his guinea pig farm and then setup a time to meet with him that evening to study the Bible. Catherine, Abbie and Kelly (one of our interpreter team members) met during the afternoon with our friend Irene. During that time we were able to visit briefly with Edgar. The guys on the team met with David in his house to study. We did not bring a study Bible with us but asked him to return to the hostel with us to meet Edgar and Manuel. From that moment things got very exciting. The three of them met and discussed with us their desire to study together even when we are not in Cabana. Edgar is such a leader. He understands what we are hoping for even as he is seeking to understand the Gospel. He said that the three of them along with Deysi and Irene need to start meeting together while we are here and then continue studying together after we leave. We brought some study Bibles with us and they are all excited about the help that they will have to study. Edgar said the time for them to meet together is now because the harvest is ready to be reaped. Amazing...
Our team members are doing great spiritually and physically. It is exciting to watch each person step into the work. The team depth is wonderful.

This morning we are going to visit the high school. Our great hope is that the young people on our team can help us engage the youth community here in Cabana. We are praying for open doors into the school so that our team members can teach the Bible through teaching English. Imagine them using these days to teach The Story evangelism to the students. Good stuff!

Thanks for your prayers. Your partnership in this effort is greatly cherished.
