Much joy has been experienced by us as a couple over the past year. We have been doing what we love to do and we have had the extra-special experience of having done it together. We have spoken much about an ‘approaching harvest’ recently in our contacts with supporters and friends. We are excited about what God is going to do.
As we sit and discuss these Bible stories with our neighbors and develop the most effective way of communicating these truths, we are amazed at how much we are learning and how many of the participants are retaining details of the stories beyond what we could have imagined at the outset.
We have recently finished the presentation of the Old Testament stories with accompanying discussion questions and had the wonderful opportunity to begin with the first New Testament story of the birth of John the Baptist and the foretold birth of the Deliverer, Jesus Christ. This is a crucial time in the telling of these stories as we are now revealing this Promise that we have reported about over and over in the Old Testament stories. Now we are seeing eyes opening to the truth that the promised Savior is Jesus Christ.
When we meet together on Thursday nights, we are aware that this is a sacred time. This is the hour for the Baka people of this small camp that we affectionately call Kol. This is the hour for families to hear of the Truth that will transform their lives. Can you hear our excitement . . . our trepidation . . . our longing? We stand on holy ground as we bring the words of God to a people desperately in need of the promises within for those who believe.
Thank you for walking with us.
