Praise the Lord! More to come... :)


Wow, just as Sarah wrote, where do I start? I guess I shall start by praising the Lord for His amazing love and all the blessings and answered prayers which He wrought during this mission...with more to come. :)

~*~

Praise the Lord for this awesome group of brothers and sisters in Christ, hand-picked by our Heavenly Father, indeed! 

Praise the Lord for all those who prayed and who are praying for us and for the Bolivians, before, during and after this wonderful mission.


Praise the Lord for laughter and joy in Him and great conversation, encouragement and edification all throughout the mission, and to and from our destinations!


Praise the Lord for time to mingle and for wisdom and open doors to share the Good News and Christ's love with university students who are practicing English! The angels in heaven were rejoicing as at least two students prayed to receive Christ that day.


Praise the Lord for red dirt roads...


...for the most scenic laundry room ever...


...for beautiful feet of those who preach the Gospel...


...and for yucca!!! :D (pardon the randomness...it was delicious!)


And finally, for the time being, praise the Lord for those precious children (these two princesses, daughters of David and Ana) who, after seeing and experiencing the love of Christ and hearing the Gospel shared through simple Salvation Bracelets, took the vision and ran with it (and literally ran!), eagerly leading me and others to those in the community who they knew needed Jesus, and eventually sharing Christ through the bracelets on their own. Praise the Lord! My heart is overjoyed, and my prayers are continually for them all. Glory to God forever and ever.


"But let all who take refuge in You be glad, Let them ever sing for joy; And may You shelter them, That those who love Your name may exult in You." Psalm 5:11

"We will sing for joy over your victory, And in the name of our God we will set up our banners. May the LORD fulfill all your petitions." 
Psalm 20:5
