Sowing & Reaping

6/18/2017
Planting rice
Today has been a really great day! The Lord definitely guided the group as we went out into our village for Bible studies. We planned on holding two Bible studies today but instead we were able to present The Bridge Gospel tract twice and do one Bible Study. We saw one woman accept Christ as her Savior today! Praise God! As a team, all together, we have presented the Gospel about 50 times and have had 10 receive Christ as their personal Lord and Savior! We have been amazed to see how the Lord has prepared the hearts of the people here. I have loved having the privilege and opportunity to be a part of such a great story that the Lord has orchestrated.

There are always new relationships to build and to invest in and I love that! Tonight April and I were hanging out on the basketball court behind out Barangay Hall spending time with the kids. They were joking that we were ghosts because our skin is so white to them! So funny.

God has blessed us during this time with protection, kind hearts in the community, and seeing His hand in all of these things.

Please be praying for the team to not grow tired or discouraged by any of the long days and that we may stay focused on why we are here and who we are here for.
