The Heat Is On




Ok.... Its the middle of March, its starting to get warm here!! Laugh, go ahead, laugh what did we expect? Our cold Indiana blood is thinning out quickly and we are actually enjoying the sun EVERYDAY and the warmth everyday. Kids don't know how we are going to make it in an Indiana weather when we return!!!! Last week we spent 4 days in a row with 100 degree temperatures without electric!! That was roughing it!! God is preparing us for our outreach that we leave for in two short weeks! We are learning things so fast here, and time is flying by. All of us are doing so much better on our Spanish and are enjoying talking and sharing with the people. Today Jenna and Tammy went out visiting in the village with the other women, and prayed with them. We welcomed a new believer into God's kingdom today, and that was awesome!! God had prepared her heart already and she was so ready to accept Jesus. The boys spent the day getting the church put back together after the wedding that was here yesterday. We are absolutely loving it here, and want to stay down here. We almost feel guilty because we are loving it so much, everyday just focusing on what God has for us, digging deeper into His word and preparing our hearts to minister to the people around here. There is so much of a need here, you can just at times feel satan working here, and we pray and there is an immediate difference. We know that The Gospel needs to be spread around here, and Lord willing there will be many more opportunities to do this. We thank all of our friends and family who are praying for us, we feel it and know how good God is. There have been times when we get discouraged, but God ALWAYS lifts us back up. We just keep our eyes on Jesus every moment of every day, walking by faith!!! God gave this verse to me last night thru a sister in Christ. Exodus 34:10 I hereby make a covenant. Before all people I will perform marvels , such as have not been performed in all the earth or in any nation; and all the people among whom you live shall see the work of the Lord; for it is an awesome thing that I will do with you. This is so true in our lives, and God is faithful to His Word!! Love you all, Eastons
