The beauty of serving the Lord


We wanted to let you guys know we had a cool thing happen Sunday at church.

In September I (Courtney) had a women's scrap booking night. We had told the women of the church here to invite their friends. Well they did. One member Brigida invited one of her friends that she had only met weeks before. While she was here for the women's night Brigida began to tell her about the church and she invited her to come. I was able to spend lots of time talking to this woman as well. Her name is Nelli.
That was over a month ago and I never heard anything from Nelli. Well guess who showed up to church over a month later? Nelli. She seemed very excited to learn from God's word. We will continue to pray for her to come and for her to surrender her life to the Lord.
This is just proof and also an encouragement that it does take time and you never know who or when the people are going to come....it might even be months later! The Lord is so ever faithful and we pray you will rejoice with us and begin to pray for Nelli.

Other things....
  • Please pray for us as we have begun follow up work from the tourism conferences. We are first taking each manager of the hotels out to eat.
  • Pray for wisdom as we try to plan an reunion event for all the employees who went through the tourism conferences.
  • Pray for me as I plan another women's night. Pray for the women to again bring their lost friends. This will be October 27.
Thank you so much for your prayers and support! We love you all.
