Today
our team of 3 is scheduled to do a Bible study at 2.30pm with an old man we met
Monday. His name is Hosue (Joshua). Please pray we can find his house (only a
general idea where on the highway it is) and that he remembers the appointment.
Then at 7pm we have a BS with the married couple running a restaurant, where
she just finished 19 years working in Singapore and he was a political refugee
from Burma who lived in Canada for 23 years. She is Christian, he is Buddhist.
I've asked her to invite her brother's family (husband, wife, 3 boys) and her
16-yr old niece. We'll have worship and I will share the gospel. Please pray
that her husband will understand and receive Jesus along with her family. She
is 43 yrs old and wants to have a baby, so there will be special prayer for
that as well.
A few hours later…
Praise
the Lord! We found the house. The father, mother, 23 year old son named Jester
and 4 younger kids from the mountain listened to the bible study. Then Jester,
who heard about Jesus for the first time last year, asked about Mark 16:16 and
if we needed to be baptized to be saved. I was able to explain about sin,
Jesus' death on the cross, and how baptism was a step to take after you believe
in Jesus. At the end of the study I asked the parents and Jester if they wanted
to believe in Jesus. The father and Jester both said yes. Praise the Lord! The
next step will be baptism, maybe next week. Thank you so much for your prayers.
