School News

La Noticia de la Escuela

I am really glad the Lord sent me here.  He is using me in the lives of these young people who already have a great understanding of the importance of missions.  They realize how little hope there would have been for their families to hear the Gospel had not been for someone who was willing to leave the comforts of their home and homeland to reach them.  Three of the four teenage boys in the Christian school are preparing for the mission field. One of them believes the Lord would have him return and serve here with his Dad after Bible college.  One has surrendered to Africa.  The other is still praying about his field of service.  Although I was not influential in their lives up to the point of this decision, the Lord is using me to help them prepare to fulfill their committments.  

Church News

La Noticia de la Iglesia

Jenny has started Ladies' Meetings to encourage fellowship and participation.  Here are a few pics of our first one: 
 

My Pastor's wife {Jenny} spoke on "sowing seeds of kindness." A missionary wife from our Bible Institute gave her testimony. Since she is expecting, we gifted her with money to spend for the baby when they get to Thailand. We played some games, and afterwards, we had a buffet of fruit and desserts!

Soulwinning

Friday, April 15: We finished knocking all the doors in one of the neighborhoods not far from the church.  Seven of us went out today and saw nine souls trust the Lord.

Friday, April 22: Eleven of us went out today in another neighborhood pretty close to the church.  My partner was my neighbor, Jessica. Seven people were saved.

Weather 

el clima
It has been in the 80's and 90's here for quite some time, except for a little period of rain which put us in the 70's for a few days. 
During the night it gets into the 60's and I have turned off the AC a few times.

Jessica is back! We are regularly conjugating verbs and memorizing Scriptures.  I also continue working on Rosetta Stone.
