Isabel

This update is tougher to explain but thankful that it is! One of the youth in our house church, Isabel, is 12 years old. She and others have been coming with us on visitation during our weekly Bible studies. This past Thursday, August 21, Isabel invited her friend Bernadette to come with us.

After a full day of Bible studies with Isabel and Bernadette, Pastor Benji was able to lead Bernadette and her cousin Ralph to the Lord!

On the following day, Friday August 22, Isabel stopped by our place to play uno and brought her friend Bernadette and Lica. While playing, Isabel explained that she had led two of her classmates to the Lord that day and brought Lica for us to share the gospel with. Pastor Benji led Lica to the Lord and all four, Ralph, (pictured left to right: Lica, Isabel, and Bernadette) joined our Friday Bible study that night. 

On Saturday, August 23, we split into two teams. Benji took Isabel and Bernadette to meet a new prospect that one of our believers wanted us to visit. 

While team two hiked to the top of the mountain to share our Bible study. 

John Mark (pictured in white who is one of our young believers) translated for us.

Ralph also joined the hike for the Bible study.

Thankful for what God is doing in the hearts of the Filipinos from our house church. "Who can utter the mighty acts of the Lord? Who can shew forth all His praise?" Psalm 106:2
