Jambo,
Yesu ni bwana! It means Jesus is Lord in Swahili.... Amen!
The Lord is pouring blessings and rewards of the Kingdom of Heaven now on earth. How wonderful, awesome and beautiful it is working for the Lord. Today we had the last lesson at VBS and the kids love it. We finished teaching the Jonah story and we went over the death, burial and resurrection of Christ. The entire class of 8-9 years old kids wanted to received Christ as their Lord. It was so beautiful how some kids seem to pray to God and meant it that they wanted receive Christ in their lives.
After we came back back from lunch we visited a family of 5 kids whose grandmother was taking care of them. We listened to her condition and we prayed for her leg injury and her situation with the kids.
Later in the afternoon we had a farewell party or program where the orphanage went out of their way to treat us with cookies and candy. Also, they danced and sang some songs for us including several speeches from the faculty. We were so grateful and the kids were so happy and they shook our hands goodbye. They really touched my heart.
We only have a few more days to go amd a lot of work ahead of us, visiting families, evangelizing on the streets, working in the church, and visiting another orphanage.
Please keep praying for us and may the Lord light our path.
God bless you!
Jesus A. Atencio
