Two teams today! Helen F, Sue and Bob C and Sue J went to minister in a small village called Galaha. They travelled there and back in 'Tri-shaws' which are simply 'toks-toks' three wheelers or in Bob's words 'sheds with an engine!'
Ian, myself (Helen L) and Bob Easter stayed here at the Bible College.
The church here prays and worships passionately and with great freedom. Ian preached up a storm with a sermon entitled 'Jesus is still rolling the stone away'. Bob shared his testimony and both had the church laughing. I shared my testimony and we had a time of ministry and forgiveness.
We are going to pray for a two year old babe that is seriously disabled and for her parents. Please remember them in your prayers they are 'Aisha (daughter), Can ti (mum) and Malina (dad).
Helen F's team preached and shared testimonies and were able to share a word of knowledge that God had given which spoke into the life of a woman who came to the church very beaten and scared. The village pastor is caring for her family situation giving her a new home and safety.
We have just eaten a great big Sri Lankan dinner with spicy yellow cauliflower as one of the dishes. Great food freshly cooked every day and we don't even have to wash up - praise God!

ReplyDeleteHi there everyone,
ReplyDeleteI am really pleased to read everything is going as planned as I am praying for you daily.
Although I am not sure how to pronouce the family you've requested prayer for I shall just have to pray for the situation as I know God will already know who we're praying for :-)
Incidentally, did everyone get my farewell card before you left? If not they will be waiting for you upon you're return :-)
Take care and may God not only richly bless you all but also make you stronger in your daily walk with him.
Yours in Service,
Salvo.
I heard at Beacon this morning that Sue has a swollen foot? Please could you tell us which Sue and what has caused it? Many Thanks.
