I’m overdue on posting a blog, I know, but this week will be difficult to do so.
I am working in La Croix with a group from Purcellville Baptist Church (Dan and Cherith’s
home church) and Cherith is here. Everybody has different tasks, but there is a strong
emphasis on evangelism in the midst of sports camps, medical clinics, and the guys that
are working on setting up their solar power system.
It’s been very productive so far, I would say we are ahead of schedule, so that is sweet.
However, it’s also been awesome because I’ve been able to share a lot of what God has
been teaching me. It has been a great time to really be “all here” while talking with
some of the youth from PBC, including many guys who are in Dan’s small group.
There is also a medical team here from the Pittsburgh area, including 3 med students who
went to, or are attending Pitt.
It’s been a great time to share with each of them some of the stories God has brought me
through, and some of the lessons I have learned about trying to live with faith as
demonstrated by the apostles.
It hasn’t been an easy week. I’ve had to struggle with trusting God for many things,
thought it is quite rewarding when He comes through with answered prayers, even if it is
just a simple email or facebook message.
I look forward to looking back on this week, but I won’t be writing much in the way of
blogs since I spend all my time working or with the team, and I feel bad to be sitting in
the dorm room working on my computer while everyone else is trying to sleep.
So, with that in mind, I sign off.
Good night and God Bless.
