We\u2019ve seen some friends and studiers get more excited and convinced of God\u2019s Truths and then we\u2019ve seen others walk away in disinterest. Both the highs and lows of life have been more extreme lately and we\u2019ve struggled more with discouragement than at other times.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_465\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-465\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/tim-ullum\/files\/2015\/06\/snake.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-465\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/tim-ullum\/files\/2015\/06\/snake-300x237.jpg\" alt=\"This happened beside our house.

But the other reality is that of how God is doing so much more than we can see or know. We so want to see the results and impact with our own eyes because it\u2019s about something SO important. Seeing our friends embrace true Life for the first time in their lives. But when we don\u2019t see those things with our physical eyes we need to continue to remind one another that it really does have to be about God\u2019s TIMING and WAY! We are choosing to see with the eyes of faith in the work that God is doing.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_466\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-466\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/tim-ullum\/files\/2015\/06\/swinging-the-chicken.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-466\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/tim-ullum\/files\/2015\/06\/swinging-the-chicken-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"Dina is swinging her pet chicken, he seems to like it.\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/tim-ullum\/files\/2015\/06\/swinging-the-chicken-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/tim-ullum\/files\/2015\/06\/swinging-the-chicken-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/tim-ullum\/files\/2015\/06\/swinging-the-chicken.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-466\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Dina is swinging her pet chicken, he seems to like it.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_467\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-467\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/tim-ullum\/files\/2015\/06\/Bye-bye-2nd-grade.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-467 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/tim-ullum\/files\/2015\/06\/Bye-bye-2nd-grade-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"???????????????????????????????\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/tim-ullum\/files\/2015\/06\/Bye-bye-2nd-grade-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/tim-ullum\/files\/2015\/06\/Bye-bye-2nd-grade-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/tim-ullum\/files\/2015\/06\/Bye-bye-2nd-grade.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-467\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Bye bye 2nd grade!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>We continue to meet with our initial study group on Monday nights, have a smaller group Wednesday nights and Saturday night is in another village. Please continue to pray for the dear friends that are meeting that their hearts would be pricked with God\u2019s Truth and be brought alive! Pray for Tim as he prepares lessons for ongoing teaching, and also for our partners as they delve into their first full translation project.<br \/>\nThe girls have finished 2nd grade and we will have a summer vacation in July. Andrea\u2019s sister and family will come to visit us at that time!!! On the way out to town for our vacation we will stop in Dina\u2019s birth family\u2019s village for 4 nights where Tim will share one of the nights at a village Bible conference. Thanks for praying for the details of these travels, for refreshment after a difficult couple of months, and for good health.<br \/>\nTHANK YOU!<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_461\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-461\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/tim-ullum\/files\/2015\/06\/babi.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-461 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/tim-ullum\/files\/2015\/06\/babi-300x254.jpg\" alt=\"Our neighbor caught a wild pig!\" width=\"300\" height=\"254\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/tim-ullum\/files\/2015\/06\/babi-300x254.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/tim-ullum\/files\/2015\/06\/babi-600x508.jpg 600w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/tim-ullum\/files\/2015\/06\/babi.jpg 907w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-461\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Our neighbor caught a wild pig!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_463\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-463\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/tim-ullum\/files\/2015\/06\/Wed-group.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-463 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/tim-ullum\/files\/2015\/06\/Wed-group-300x197.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"197\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/tim-ullum\/files\/2015\/06\/Wed-group-300x197.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/tim-ullum\/files\/2015\/06\/Wed-group-600x395.jpg 600w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/tim-ullum\/files\/2015\/06\/Wed-group.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-463\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Tim teaching about Cain &amp; Abel on Wednesday night<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We wanted to update you on how things are going here in jungle land.
