Youth Update

Youth and youth workers from Second Baptist-
We wanted to give you a quick update of what has happened since your trip.
Unfortunately no youth from the Cafes have attended church/Bible study yet. We are not discouraged at all though. We were able to talk with Raul and he told us he is not interested in studying the Bible right now. We went to his work and visited with him and told him it was ok that he didn't want to study the Bible right now but we still wanted to be friends with him. Please be praying for him and for the Lord to soften his heart

Keep praying for the names and faces you met that week. We know the Lord brought them to us for a reason and in His perfect time they will come. I know some of you are talking with some youth via email. That is awesome and please keep that up. We will continue to pray for you guys as you build relationships with them. We will pray one day those relationships will turn into spiritual conversations.

I had mentioned that at the motorcycle show I was able to talk with the sister of Erica and invite her to church. She had come to the Cafe one time and she came to both Moto shows. Anyway she came the Sunday after you guys left and then she came again this Sunday!! So keep praying for her and pray for fruit in her life. Her name is Yuri.

Building relationships and gaining their trust takes time! Please just continue to pray and we will let you know if anyone else starts attending. Preston has also been sending out emails to try to get in touch with all the youth again. Keep emailing them and building those relationships. We are so proud of you guys and we can't wait to see what God has for the youth of PV!!!
