Drama Time






Hello, all! Can't believe it is March already. Our time here is flying by. We have started doing dramas for local churches and we were all demons except for Matt who was Jesus. It was a powerful drama and we hope to keep learning new ones to share with the people. Last weekend we went to a village that did not have a church in it, we prayed and walked around and made ourselves known there. We talked with some people and in 2 weeks are returning for a youth convention and hopefully teach the people about Jesus. They were warm and welcomed us back to return, so that was a blessing. The kids are still doing good. They are practicing their soccer right now, we seem to always attract crowds after church and play soccer games. Dayspring seems to always get beat!! So, they decided to practice every afternoon and hopefully win a game! Matt's dad came out of heart surgery great, and is home now recovering. That was such an answered prayer for us. We thank you for all your prayers for him. This last week we have been learning more on relationships, and this week we are studying some of the church doctrine of other beliefs so we can know how to encounter them with authority in God's Word. There have been times that God has blessed us with His love and grace, and there are some times that it vis hard to die to ourselves and let God take control of us and everything that we are. That is why we are here though, to die to ourselves and to be all that He wants us to become. Then and only then can He use us to bring the glory and honor to Him.



Last week we indulged ourselves in some American food, first time since down here! We had a real pizza with sausage, mushrooms and pepperoni on it. WOW The Mexicans were laughing at our family as we devoured it in less then 5 minutes!!! It was worth the laughs though!! Well keep in touch and thank you for your prayers. We know God has called us here, and we are so thankful for this opportunity to dig deeper into God's Word, to shine the light of Christ in the dark areas that need His light!! God Bless you!! P.S. The pictures are of us before we did the drama, and Caleb after a long day playing right before service started.
