February flying by!!!

Mens gathering at remote village

This month of February we have visited many houses as we work alonside a local association that promotes childrens rights and tries to help families in the rural areas. This year their goal is to promote family values and we are working alongside them as event organizers and Bible teachers in the visits and in the events that involve children, mothers and fathers.

Telma has given Bible studies in various womens meetings in the rural areas and I have worked with he visits to these families homes and with the events for the fathers.

This work is very hard since the men in these rural communities are very closed to outsiders and are very suspicious of anyone who visits them. We have had success though and many men have participated in the "social events" we have organized for them. These are gatherings where they get to play dominos and cards and after a small snack hear the gospel, presented in a very smooth way of course. The results have been awesome and the association we are working with has been very glad with the never before seen results! Praise God.

Anyways that is what is going on these days. For next month we will continue with these visits and be working on five childrens evangelistic events at 5 rural area elementry schools.

Thanks for your prayers!!!
