Today started as
all days should. Early (0600) and lots of hot water making getting up and
showering a real pleasure. Out of the last 4 days we have been without water 2
days so life is very good. A lot has been accomplished as far as the ministry
goes. Vehicles have been inspected and certified road worthy. Insurance has
been paid and members visited both at home and at the hospital.
Today is special
as we will be going out for Saturday service and Jesus film. I got up and did
the usual as in bible study and prayer. The kids will preach this afternoon in
the village and also I have my sermon for tomorrow. I will not have time later as well,
will not get back till late this evening. I will send pictures to Sheila for
posting along with this report. Grace is packing a nice dinner for us. I think
cheese, hard boiled eggs and bread. Rackson and I will eat when we get home, he
likes cold cereal the same as me. Continue later…Just got home it is now 2130 and
I am pumped. We had about 30 at Saturday service, the singing was very good as
always and the prayer service was encouraging. I preached “The great
invitation” from the book of Matthew. At the end of my sermon Rackson gave the
invitation and 7 came forward for salvation. After an hour and a half we left
to go set up for the film. We got started right at sundown. By 1900 we had a
very large gathering. I counted over 100 children and 400+ adults. At the end
of the presentation and after the invitation several hundred raised their hands
in acceptance of Jesus as their Saviour. It was a wonderful end to a great day.
Preaching a risen Christ will draw men to God. It is something to be a part of.
God is mighty and full of grace and love for His children.
Saw a great
bumper sticker on a mini bus. “No Jesus No Life” it said. I told Rackson I saw
a better one than that and it said “Know Jesus Know Life”. That about sums it
up.
Because of the
Cross,
Bro. Chuck
