Saturday Highlights

Hello family and friends,

I apologize for the delay in posting this entry. Saturday was such a busy day, but such a powerful and unforgettable one!

We held a children's outreach in Ombili (the village we worked in last year). It was not advertised at all, and so we just showed up and over a hundred children came running within a half hour. We had so much fun just playing with them for awhile and then doing a children's program. We changed things up a bit. BRENDA made her debut as the ninja in Sin Chair, and CHRIS YOUNG rocked it out explaining the Sin Chair skit with TWO translators!!!! So proud of them :)

In the afternoon, we were able to shop and rest a bit. We also prepared for the youth outreach. God moved in powerful ways! CHRIS KNARR and SHEENA did awesome testimonies/mini sermons, and NICK was an amazing worship leader. CHRIS YOUNG and KAYLEIGH jumped in and led worship during altar, which was also incredible. We had an enormous response from people wanting salvation and prayer for deliverance. It was such a good night, and I can't wait to post photos and videos!

I must cut this short now, because we are off to another outreach!

Love and gratitude,

Pastor Courtney and the team

Thank you for every post! We know you are extremely busy. We are waiting patiently for the pictures and videos, but waiting is hard. We are constantly praying for you. Doing God's work is the most important thing for you to be doing right now. Stay strong and healthy. In Christ's Love!
Jeff.

Dear everyone,
This is getting a bit ridiculous, the things God is doing in your life is so crazy. Maybe you don't even realize all of it yet but sitting at home reading the blog, its almost like watching a movie and you guys are the actors. You're putting together the big show and just don't know the full outcome quite yet. but let me just tell you, you are all doing fabulous and God is truly pleased with everything you have all put into this. I really wish there was like a live video feed i could watch and just follow you around all day or put an ear piece in my ear like listening to a football game or something ha .
ANYWAY
