We
have been here for less than two weeks and God is already doing amazing things!
The first week we arrived we got the opportunity to travel with Heavenly Dream
School on a field trip to Busan. It was a great time
of building relationships with the students away from the pressures of studying
and school. We just talked to students about their lives, what they wanted us
to pray for them, and even got an opportunity to share the gospel. I got the
opportunity to catch up with a couple of students from last summer and see all
God has done in their lives over this past year. What a blessing to see prayer
requests answered!
Our
main tasks at the school are to teach English, assist with English classes, and
tutor any students that need extra help. It gives us a great opportunity to get
to know the students with the hope of being able to share with them (even if it
is in broken English). Along with this we have begun preparation for the annual
English Unification Camp. We are thrilled to see how God will work through this
camp and are praying that it will touch the lives of many students.
A Bible study was started this week in the boys dorm which is very exciting! One
of the students left asking "When will we meet again?" And when Andrew
told him, "Next week," he was wanting to meet even sooner! So we hopefully will be
able to meet more often.
Many
of the students the 2012 team spent time praying for last summer are now leaders in
the school and are helping lead worship during the schools chapel service. God
is doing great things through the teachers here and we are thankful to come
along side them in this ministry.
Pray
for:
-the
opportunity for more Bible studies to be created and continued
-close
relationships with the students so that we might show them the love of Christ
-daily strength for the
teachers as they work each day to maintain this school and ministry
