Sunday in Coracora

Hey church...

Our Bible study went well last night. We´re meeting with Yulber later tonight to begin doing some training. That was one of the first questions he asked yesterday, ¨Will you spend time with me everyday studying the Bible?¨ At lunch today he asked me if I would teach him how to preach. He´s also asked a lot of good theological questions. All this to say that he is definitely beyond the basics in his faith.

We spent time today with the kids at the orphanage and this afternoon we met a traveling team of journeymen and semester missionaries. This group is working with REAP South by traveling from village to village here in the mountains and working with the groups that churches have established in different villages.

One special prayer request...tomorrow (monday) afternoon our team will be speaking with the city mayor, the city manager, and one other city official. Yulber set the meeting up before we even got here so we could share the gospel with them. Ask God to give us the right words and gracious demeanors with them. I´m sure they´re probably hoping we can do something for them also, so we´ll see.

Blessings...

Pastor Mark
