Tuesday in Wayumba

Cheryl here for the team.

Tuesday was another incredible day of hut-to-hut evangelism and VBS with the schoolchildren. It is so evident that God has gone before us and prepared the way. We are so thankful for the openness of the Muslims. They are not only listening to stories from God's Word, they are asking insightful questions such as, "How do I follow this Jesus?"

Working with the schoolchildren is sheer joy on both sides. We brought two puppets (named Ruth and Naomi by the student team last week). Fiona and Beverly are doing a great job teaching Bible stories through them. Actually, we have all come to realize that Fiona has an alter ego, which is quite amusing. Judith has taught the children many songs and they love it. Colton and Chris are doing sports evangelism.

Yesterday, I spent the day with my friend Paul Napari, meeting with healthcare officials and and also meeting with the director of the orphan home. God was so good to give me the grace to communicate well and everything fell into place just as expected. To God be the glory.

Today, we are headed back out to Wayumba for evangelism this morning and a closing VBS ceremony at the school this afternoon. Our prayer is that even though we are leaving, that God's Word would stay in the hearts of the children.

Thank you for your continued prayer support.
