Prayers Answered

I just wanted to let everyone know that Emmanuel, who I talked about in the last post, is at the orphanage now. He had not eaten anything all day and he said he wanted some rice.  They are going to be able to hire a sitter for him during the day to help lift him.  Labor is fairly inexpensive over here which makes it easier for the orphanage to pay someone.  GSF director, Mark Gwartney, has a men's Bible Study every Tuesday morning.  Dr. Mark and I were able to go and Mark spent the whole time sharing scripture that backs up "once saved always saved."  This leads to our second request from last night.  The men had questions and it is completely different from what they have been taught but I could really tell that some of them were really wanting to search this issue.

Our second day of VBS is over and it was a success.  We were able to be a part of the men's and women's Bible Studies this morning and afternoon.  Now, some of the ladies went on a hike and Mark and Charlie are sketching out murals in the new babies house.  We are all going to meet up and start painting the sketches.  That will be on the agenda for the rest of the day.  Tomorrow we are going to be able to take the day off for sight seeing and shopping in Jinja.  This will be a lot of fun.  Please keep the prayers coming.  Everyone is healthy and no one has gotten sick which is a huge blessing.  We are all having a blast, but I know that we will be ready to see our families when we get back.
