They looked to Him and were radiant, and their faces will never be ashamed. - Psalm 34:5
Today was a good day. We went with Pastor Danny to another sister church after he finished the main service. It was the one year anniversary for the other church, so it was an important occasion! We spoke and prayed for people and they were really fun to fellowship with. Later we went to the houses of some of the people in that congregation. One lady, Sulinda, took us to her house...we had to climb a ladder to get to it! It was exactly like the movie Aladdin...that's the best picture I can give to you! Sulinda's nick name in the church is Mary Magdaline..because of the life she used to live and the one she lives now. They said the first time she came to church she was drunk, but now she is a leader in it! Another cool thing about that particular church is that almost every person in the congregation is from a Hindu or Muslim background..meaning none of them were born into a Christian family, they are all first generation followers of Jesus! It started with one family who, after committing their lives to Jesus, held a bible study out of their home. When it grew to 45 people meeting in one tiny bedroom, they decided to start another church close by, the majority of the congregation being the people they affected in their community! Pretty cool, huh? :)
In other news...we STILL havn't adjusted the 10 hour time difference!
you girls are gonna sleep 2 weeks straight when you get home! Stay healthy, the end is near!
