The trip back to the village recently was really encouraging. It was a great opportunity to spend some quality time with the church leaders. They were excited about receiving the newly revised Phase 1 lessons (Creation through Christ). Together we talked about the need to start a couple of outreaches nearby and it was a blessing to hear that they plan to use this time to train new Bible teachers. They are now asking God to show them who should go and who should be trained. During our time, we also discussed the direction the Lord has lead us for this coming school year. They were understanding and supportive of the need for us to be in the dorm another year.
The families there were thankful for the much needed medical supplies and it was to spend some time working with the guys who oversee the medicine in the village. They are so far from any kind of medical help, it is good that these men now have a basic understanding of some medicines and if needed they can seek further help via radio.
On Sunday the main Bible teacher taught from Ephesians 3. It was great to have the opportunity to support his teaching with some more examples from the Word and the importance of each one of us walking daily by faith. The timing was right for me to explain that God has temporarily moved us to another ministry. How I pray they too will understand the importance of following God wherever He leads and the peace we can have from just being right where He wants us to be.
