We spent our first full day here in Riggins, and had a great day getting to know the people of Salmon River Community Church. This morning we led the church service as a team, with Stephen and Leah leading worship and giving their testimonies, while I gave a sermon on the importance of prayer in our mission of evangelism. After church we had lunch with several people from the church, and we got a chance to get out and walk around town. Some of our friends from last year have stopped by to see us, so that has been fun to reconnect with them. Pastor Jim and Judy took us to see a salmon hatchery this evening, which was awesome.
During our family time, we discussed many of the things we are nervous and concerned about as we are on the eve of VBS and our outreach to the teens here in town. So please pray for us as we really get down to work tomorrow. Pray for VBS, for boldness in our conversations, for Abbey's health as she has a cold and sore throat, for Leah and Stephen who will once again share their testimonies tomorrow in front of our new friends. Oh, and John found his wallet, so praise God!
I'll have another update tomorrow. Keep praying!
Rob
