The Lord has really been helping us! We sense He wants to bring revival and He is certainly capable - no matter how impossible it may seem! Last Friday night during our normal prayer service, where we all pray for about an hour, the Holy Spirit broke in on us and led us to pray longer naming out the names of our young people. God is really dealing with them! Doug says the Firm Foundations curriculum is bringing them to a sense of how Holy God is and how He sees sin and how dirty they are before Him. Last Sunday night we had 3 young people in church, who do not profess to be Christians, yet they were "Amen"ing the preacher! It was astounding.
God has also been helping in our ladies' meetings. It has been rewarding to watch God work as we have tried to be obedient to His leading for these meetings. We have services in homes of neighbors of our church ladies, our own church ladies etc. In each service God has blessed us with His awesome presence! In 2 different services, 2 ladies have come to accept Christ. There is no greater fulfillment and joy than having part in leading someone to Christ.
This is our church ladies pictured with Jehovan, a lady who has been attending our church some recently.
My heart was touched one Sunday night when we were singing the song "Take My Life". When we got to the part that says, "I bring my life to you to be yours for eternity," I saw Abner (pictured above with Brandon) with both hands in the air and his eyes closed. He is only 10 years old but says he wants to be a preacher when he grows up. It is for people like Abner that we are here!

Doug and Kim,
So glad to get to see and read how God is using y'all there to touch lives for him. I so enjoyed talking to you, Kim, the other day. I'll call you again sometime.
That is neat about Abner. We enjoyed seeing your little Jonathan riding the scooter several posts down. How cute!
God bless and encourage y'all in Him today!!
Thanks for keeping us posted; it is so exciting to hear of spiritual progress on the missionfield. Keep up the good work.
