Good News!

The Tasmania partnership continues as we are hard at work this Tuesday. God has allowed us to share His good news with many and to encourage several in the body of believers. We have spent time worshipping together, praying together, and building relationships. Several have accepted Jesus' free gift of salvation and many have asked the Lord to help them remain faithful to Him. God is doing amazing things here as we are permitted to plant seeds in this land.
Thank you for praying for each event and opportunity and event as we work here. As you prayed for our encounters at the school, a young girl made a connection with us as we presented songs at an assembly and shared about American culture in the classrooms. On Sunday, she asked that someone to bring her to the church, because she had heard there would be Americans there. That evening, she gave her heart to Jesus.
There are many special moments we would love to share with you when we return: Sandy's book club meeting, Margie leading worship, Bob sharing the gospel and leading the Lord's supper, Shelby's testimony at the family concert, Chris sharing with several men, and each member of our team making connections that only God could set up. We appreciate your prayers and look forward to seeing you again soon!
Please pray for us specifically this week as we share at Elderly Care Centers, at a ladies dessert gathering geared at young mothers, and our time at the youth club. Also, lift up each other event that is scheduled.
We thank you for remembering us and carrying us to the feet of Jesus. Pray we will have strength and remain upbeat and positive. Pray for wisdom to make the most of each opportunity.
