Iglesia Bautista Betania (Bethany Baptist Church) Cuidad Sandino, NI
Here is the text of an email I received just yesterday
from one of the adult students from our most recent mission.
"Hello
Jody,
I believe
you are still in Nicaragua doing your wonderful job. My name is
Ricardo and I was in Teds class, during the week of July 4th.
It was
good listening your message. I accepted jesus during that week and
that was very important to my life. I wish you have the strengh to
continue doing this job for ever.
I also
want to ask you to intercede before jesus on my behalf because I do
not want to walk the road of the sinners. Please pray for me. I need
a job, I need money to pay my bills. I know he can give a job but
will I be good? will I be strong to be on the right path? that is
what I want. I want to stay away from the sin.
Jody may
be god blessing you for ever."
Representing Hulen Street Baptist Church of Fort Worth,
Texas and Retta Baptist Church of Burleson, Texas the team took on
the daunting task of executing five daily events. Two events of
Practically Speaking English (PSE) for Children, two events of PSE
for teens and an evening PSE event for adults made for some very long
days. Nonetheless, the team gave the same great energy to the
adults at the end of the day as they did the children at the first
event of the day.
The result was simply amazing. 310+ children and
dozens of parents, 150+ teens and 100+ adults came into the
church each day to be touched by our marvelous team of teachers and
church partners. Of the adults and teens, almost 80 marked
"yes" on their personal survey, indicating that they had
accepted Christ as their savior.
What is keeping you from getting in on being a blessing
and being blessed like this? Prayerfully consider a mission
with us during 2012. Check our web site often for the
project dates and the deadlines for signing on.
