As promised........

this is the before picture of the new church;

and this is the after picture from approximately the same spot!

I wondered how they could do anything with the walls. You can see in the above photo, the walls are covered with an unpaintable plastic. But these resourceful people covered the walls with some monotone fabric!

It was really lovely!

first service was a full house!

***********

This man gave his life to Jesus last night at the crusade! Today he stood up in the new church, to introduce himself and say  "I am going to get baptised, and then I will join the choir!"

Now that's commitment!

a GREAT evening!

We had a wonderful service. Showed the full-length film of the life of Jesus and about 25+ people followed the prayer at the end! The movie screen was set up in the grassy section you see in the middle photo (in case you were wondering). This screen can be viewed from both side. There was an enthusiastic response from the people outside the fence.
The property owner invited us to build a church right there! Wouldn't it be wonderful if it were that easy?

Today is the beginning of a 2 day crusade, but it is raining quite steady at the moment, so only God knows for sure!

LOL! The hairdo is compliments of the humidity! Nothing helps!

one last time......

each Sunday, we are in a different church. This was the last service in this church. This Sunday we will be in a new location.
I will send you pictures.

internet is back!

We spent a couple of hours waiting for this boat to take us back to the city.

It was a welcome sight!

Hand made baby blankets DELIVERED!

Thank you so much (you know who you are!)

You can see the joy as they received these gifts!

the clothing and shoes were also well received. It is hard to express the needs, but these gifts really touched their hearts with the love of Jesus!

the new church plant.....

We are looking to God for great things! Here are the 'before' pictures of the new church;

stay tuned........
