Peace be with you our dear brothers and sisters! We would like to thank you all for your prayers; in Vietnam the rainy season began, and we praise the Lord for keeping us from floods. Also, we are very thankful to God for sending us brother and sisters for a week from the US, who helped us in the ministry here.
Though it rained most of the week, it was a blessing to us that God paused the raining during our children’s’ ministry since the cemetery ground is pure dirt and from the rain it would have been very muddy, but by the mercy of God, during the few hours we spent with the children there was no rain and the ground was dry! This was same even the next week, when it rained heavy all day, but during our kids’ ministry the ground was dry, and the sky was clear that the children even pointed out airplanes in the sky! We are very thankful to God for taking care of our small worries, like the rain, and turning it into miracles that the children can see and praise God for it!
In addition, by the wonderful grace of God, we had our first Sunday school in our church because a few Sundays before, a young woman Liza, repented! Now with her little children Liya and Romik, she continues to visit our church and prayer groups. We ask you to please pray with us so God would continue to work in her heart and that her children may learn to love Jesus from the beginning of their young age.
We are now very happy to have children in our church and if it is God’s will, we would like to continue Sunday school with Liya and Roma because it was very interesting for them since they never heard the word ‘God’ and were interested to know who He was and that He created everything.
We thank God that our children ministry is growing and now even in our own church! Please continue to pray for the hearts of all these children, that they be set on the right path in the very beginning of their lives as it says, “train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.” (Proverbs 22:6)
