Praise the Lord with us!
On February 7th, after finishing the Bible lesson for the day, Davi confessed faith in Jesus. He said he was going to tell the others on a scheduled Friday night Bible study, but couldn’t keep the good news in–he went immediately and told his sister, Edite, as well as veteran missionary, and former co-worker with my mom and dad,John Stoelting.
The seed of the Word has been sown down through the years by my folks and others, and now fruit is being harvested. Consider these happenings during the last few weeks
1. Davi believes in Christ 2. Davi tells Luis that he has believed in Jesus, and that now he knows he is not going to “the big fire” when he dies. Luis says he wants to hear the Bible teaching too. 2. Wazoco (young lady) shares with us a dream she had in which Jesus returns and the people are trying to find a place to hide, while the Believers are happy and by His side (similar to a dream Davi had). She then asks to be taught the Word. 3. Nauti, a young man who had the privilege of attending a Bible school for tribal people of Brazil, and believed in Christ while there, shares with us how his family and others marvel at how he is not afraid of the spirits of the dead and witchcraft any more. He tells about his faith in Jesus to Mawira, and Mawira asks to be taught the Word. 4. Maia, Nauti’s younger sister, says she wants to hear God’s Word too. 5. John Stoelting, who teaches the Word every morning in the village, says he has noticed that the people seem to be showing an interest in the Word that he has never seen before.
Praise and pray with us!
