Tuesday & Wednesday Ministry Pictures

We learned "Shackles".  It's crazy.  We have women that are Grandmothers, in their 50's doing our dance.  These people are amazing.  

Here's me with my updated visa stamp in my passport.  I'm so happy.  I should be going home today, but God has made a way.

Mom (Kay),
You look so happy with the children on your lap. I know you are having an incredible experience and I can't wait for details. I'm praying for you and the team- for safety, spiritual wisdom, and that the love of Christ would be exemplified to these kids through you. Know that you are loved- and pass it along to them.
love,
Stevie (Jesse and Naomi)

I miss you guys so much. Tonight's service was very good. What a powerful speaker! As adults we were also challenged to share Christ. I love the pictures. Maurice, eat!!!!
Justine - What an actress!!!! Who knew?? That's where Ang gets it from, lol

I have not ceased praying for you, praying for strength both emotionally and spiritually. I pray you will feel our prayers and sense our love!!

so good to see picture updates of all that you guys are doing in Namibia.
I can hardly wait to hear the stories and see more pictures, I'm so incredibly proud of you all. God is doing so much through you guys... it's truly inspiring to me.
Shoutout to Maurice ( day 5 & 6... sorry i missed yesterday!!)
loved that you guys did shackles, it's kind of a classic. next step : soldiers... so much fun. I'm so proud of you for all that you have done already... and I'm so excited for what God has in store for you on this trip. I know that you have been gone for almost a week now, and I'm sure that you are getting tired... rely on God for your strength. dream bigger, do more. "we smother God's possibilities for us by dreaming too small. God can do more right now. Own me, form me, stir me. Just don't leave me like I was."

"Just once, let the love of God take entire and absolute possession of your heart; let it become to your heart like a second nature; let your heart suffer nothing contrary to enter; let it apply itself continually to increase this love of God by seeking to please Him in all things and refusing Him nothing; let it accept as from His hand everything that happens to it; let it have a firm determination never to commit any fault deliberately and knowingly or, if it should fail, to be humbled and to rise up again at once - and such a heart will pray continually."
i'm continually praying for you ( and the rest of the team)...you are amazing. keep it up-- give more. be more. become more. i love you!!

Pastor Eran, Pastor Courtney, and Justine -- you all look wonderful! I am in awe at all that you are doing through the strength of God. I wish I were with you, it brings back incredible memories of Jamaica. I've been blessed by the doors you have opened for me in missions, and I believe I speak for many others that probably never would have considered doing something like this without your guidance. I pray you continue to touch the hearts of many so they can continue to touch the hearts of many.

Jeanette -- Breanna was looking over my shoulder for pictures of you. She is in awe of your being willing to go to Africa, and she misses you!

Missy -- you are an awesome young lady! I pray you continue to listen to our almighty father.

Justine -- I believe you have found your calling in life (Sin chair) with drama. I believe I have a part for you in the next Christmas musical.

Geralynn and the rest of the team -- our prayers are with you for strength and safety. God will lift you up when you need a hand and give you rest when the job is done.

BE BLESSED!

These pictures are incredible! The love of Jesus is soooo very evident in every one of them. Thanks especially, Pastor Eran, for the picture of the "visa stamp." What a wonderful remembrance of how our very BIG God answered prayer and suppied a very small, (but very much needed)stamp! I know His stamp of approval is on all of your lives as you give of yourselves to share the love of Jesus with these precious children.
I'm taking the picture of you, Dot, to show Benjamin tomorrow so he can see his Grandma as a policewoman! (A very convincing one too!) Also, Kathe, you better keep an eye on Pastor John, since it looks to me like with all those balloons he may be running off to join the circus!

Love ya! Judy

hey guys!
i send my love to all...
the service was great tonight. all went smooth except Jason wanting to show a windows only compatible video on our macs... what a fool :) anyway. service was great a little low in numbers but jason did a great job. kids accepted Christ for the first time. and 30 or so met with Eric and Jason at the end of service for a Campus missionary meeting...
we did a slide show from the pics you all have posted. so all in all a great night but you are all missed so much. and i really mean that.
were all praying for you so much! please be safe and stay healthy!

ps: stac(y)(ie) =i send my love, i miss our conversations of how you know nothing about the Assemblies of God, and how i'm trying to make a living doing what i do! get home safe i have a new idea for you.
PS: Courtney. Marley says she's "lost" without you here. so get home. and there is an email for you on facebook. and Elyse wants you to send her some love when you get a chance :) and

and the phillies are going to the world series!!

Arn't you all excited for the bigger things God is going to have you do this coming week?

Love and prayers
