What a day! We spent the day in Juayua with Hector and
Cesar. On in the day Osvaldo joined us
as well. This is the location of the
beginning of a new work and it is about 30 to 40 minutes from us. We have gone twice to evening services at the
home of Regina and Pedro and today we got to spend an entire day there. We arrived about 9 o’clock and started
visiting some families and individuals that Hector had contacted. I think all total we had about 5 studies
altogether and there was also an evening service. At the last study it was just Hector and us and one man and Hector asked us what was the Spanish word for "seasons" and we told him. So we helped Hector with his Spanish! We were out from about 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., so
you can imagine that we were exhausted by the time we got home. Every time we have a study, I am always moved
so deeply. I wish in every case I could
make a decision for them. I cannot
understand why anyone could hesitate a moment whether or not to follow
Christ. I know too that Satan is well
and active and is a stumbling block to many. One ‘study’ was a devotional for a
Christian. She was suffering terribly
with arthritis. Please keep contacts in Juayua in prayer.
We ate lunch at a small restaurant,
where Hector knew the proprietor. He
wanted to refresh his acquaintance with her to share the gospel. We did take about an hour walk-about to get a
feel for the city. Since it is a work
that most preachers in this area are involved in, Dwaine and I will regularly
go there 2 or 3 days a week to help get this work going. I would note that the lady that allows the
church to meet in her home was with us all day.
She went to the studies and served us coffee and hosted to evening
service. All day she had a smile on her
face!
Tomorrow we will be off early to San
Salvador to work on our visas. We hope
by the end of the day we will have everything but the church recommendation and
we pray we will progress in that area as well.
