The lawyer, Edith,<br \/>\nwas a nice, pleasant lady.  She asked Gene if he is a missionary.  Upon<br \/>\na &#8220;yes&#8221; response she listened and asked questions as Gene gave her a<br \/>\nnutshell version of the gospel of grace.  He offered to give her MP3<br \/>\naudio Bible lessons.<\/p>\n<p>When we left the city and got back to our guesthouse a couple of days<br \/>\nlater, after a few emails back and forth with her about if MP3 files or<br \/>\nbooks would work best for her, she decided on MP3 files on a USB thumb<br \/>\ndrive.  She gave us her address for package delivery and this morning we<br \/>\nsent her a thumb drive with chronological evangelistic lessons from<br \/>\nGenesis 1:1 to the accession of Christ.<\/p>\n<p>The lessons are the evangelistic lessons the Manubu&#8217; Bible teachers<br \/>\nteach translated from Manubu&#8217; into Cebuano which is her mother tongue<br \/>\nlanguage and is the language of the Filipino people in the towns and<br \/>\ncities of our island.  Please PRAY for Edith, that she will listen to<br \/>\nall of the lessons, be saved, and encourage others to also listen to them.<\/p>\n<p>The buyer of our truck is a friendly guy and has been texting us and<br \/>\nwishing to visit us. All the Manubu&#8217; Bible teachers are presently<br \/>\nmeeting together in the lowlands and included in their discussions will<br \/>\nbe how and who will teach the guy the evangelistic lessons if he<br \/>\nresponds positively to an invitation to listen. He is a Manubu&#8217;.  His<br \/>\nname is Junie.  Please PRAY that Junie and his family and friends will<br \/>\nwant to listen and arrangements can be made to teach them.<\/p>\n<p>Our mission guesthouse here on our island has a vehicle which any of us<br \/>\nEthnos360 (NTM) missionaries can use when we are out of our tribal<br \/>\nlocation to drive into town or the to city 100km away to buy supplies or<br \/>\nfor whatever reason we need it.  We pay mileage which covers the cost of<br \/>\noperation. Our present vehicle is very old, in constant need of repair,<br \/>\nand needs to be replaced.  If you would like to contribute towards the<br \/>\npurchase of a newer vehicle you can send funds to Ethnos360, 312 West<br \/>\nFirst Street, Sanford, Florida 32771-1231 and include a note that it is<br \/>\nfor the Philippine Field Fund VEH000.<\/p>\n<p>As we translate the OT it has been exciting and encouraging to see how<br \/>\nGod orchestrates things to accomplish His good purposes.  And it is just<br \/>\nas exciting and encouraging to see Him doing it today!<\/p>\n<p><!--Posted by Email--><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Greetings.\u00a0 It is so fascinating to see how God works.\u00a0 When we sold our truck last week, Gene went with the buyer to a lawyer in the city where we buy supplies to make the transfer of ownership.
