Dear Family and Friends,

   We had a Baptism last week!! It was awesome. Linda, previously a drug addict, got saved on Saturday got baptized that Sunday. Then there was Pricilla who is a Christian but hadn’t been baptized before and hasn’t had any discipleship came to meet us. After she introduced us to Linda and now they are coming to meetings! We feel so blessed to have them and be able to disciple them. I helped Kerby with the baptisms, which was a lot of fun. However, because it is March it was cold water.

 

Additionally, my relationships with the women in the French Sign Language class are growing. At the end of the semester, I want to get involved with the deaf community here in Bastogne and neighboring cities. Please pray that God gives me favor in that area. I also am going to start meeting with the women individually in the class for coffee and hopefully to talk about life and God.

 Our soccer outreach has boomed! We usually have 6-8 people per-week not including ourselves. We are able to talk to these people one on one when we have short breaks in between the games. We also are trying to schedule activities outside of soccer to be able to talk with them more about their lives and of course Jesus! Please pray that as we are building these friendships that God gives us favor to be able to talk to them about Jesus.

 

    My French language learning is still turtling along, but God’s grace is sufficient. And I feel truly blessed to be here. Please pray that God gives us wisdom on what relationships to invest the most time in and how best to spend our time. We want to be able to disciple people here and plant a church here. Sometimes it seems so overwhelming with all the tasks at hand, but I know that God wants a church here. We desire deeper friendships here. Please pray what would take months to build would only take weeks here.

Thank you for all your prayers and support while I am here. I pray that God blesses you abundantly for your sacrifice.

 

Much Love and Many Blessings,
