Wow, today was a long day. And Pine is beautiful, hot, and small! This morning we joined Pastor John for prayer at 8:00, Bible study at 8:45, and service at 10:00. We were warmly welcomed by everyone and just couldn't get over how friendly people are. Things move very slowly and people tend to linger. We met three older women selling jewelry they made. That took a good chunk of the afternoon. However we don't see any teens. We invited the middle school students from the church to the play fields but no one ended up coming. Please pray for encounters with local teens as we venture into Pine and possibly Strawberry (three miles away). We are all happy but tired from the heat. Thanks all! Good night.
Stephanie, thinking of you and the group. God is so powerful and has a plan for this entire trip. Be open to possibility. "When I called, you answered me; you made me bold and stouthearted." Ps 138: 3
What a treat to see your team in the airport on Friday... I'll be praying for connections with teens for your team. Don't give up. Persevere. Hit the highways & byways. Pray. You're not alone!
Stephanie - I'm confident of good things ahead for you and your team. Praying for teens and the church's in Pine, the Lord will touch both through the hands of your team. Greet Pastor John for me. Hi Mike.
