God's Work Continues

Yesterday we had a great Ladies' Bible Study from Isaiah 61 at The Hawkins home. It was a great time of sharing and prayer. GOd is fantastic!

A huge, exciting surprise was the great turnout for the After School Program! This program in the Church Hall was geared at Primary SChool age children and younger, and there were 18 children who attended, as well as some of their families. The kids enjoyed songs and movement from LFBC VBS dvds led by Dempsey and Jace. Chris taught a totally interactive version of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. Damon Hawkins led out in Scripture reading adn introductions. Joel Hawkins led our prayer. And the kids had a blast with the soccer pencils and pads, as well as the yummy goodie skewers and the chocolate fountain. God truly blessed the connections and I believe we will see fruit in days to come.

Last night we had a wonderful time at the New Disciples Study, where Chris led out about Believers' basics such as baptism, Bible Study, prayer, and attendance in a local, Bible based church. There was a great crowd and we know that God will continue to grow these new disciples through their local church and encourage us all to grow deeper.

Prayer Points: Please pray for our family, as three of the four of us are ill-- our flights out are tomorrow. Pray Jace is able to fight it off and stay well.
Continue to pray hard as many in the community and church family are very ill. There was a huge outbreak of sickness beginning Wednesday.
Please pray that even our final connections here and farewell dinner would be blessed.
Pray that the Saturday Night concert tomorrow after our departure would be fruitful and continue the passion and harvest.
Pray for new christians who are experiencing difficult times. Pray that they will hunger and thirst for righteoussness and walk in the power of the Holy Spirit.
Pray God's continued blessings on The Point Christian Fellowship and Chrsitians in Beaconsfield, Exeter, and Beauty Point. They have shared their homes, their lives, and the hearts with us, and we are so grateful.
