We have been able to start many Bible studies in our two areas of ministry. One of which in Pili, we have encouraged them to come to church. This past Sunday we had six of our mothers come to church with us! We had a seperate s.s. class with them and then we all went to the main service. All the women told me they enjoyed it and were encouraged by it! One of them just recently lost her 17 year old son to a motorcycle accident. Her name is Agnus, and when we first visited her and shared the gospel she was crying and looked like she had lost all hope! The next time we saw her she was smiling and looked as if a burden had been lifted off of her! The same with another mother, who's husband left her because he told her he didn't want to support them anymore. Her name is Menchie, she too was crying all the time and was having to take depression medicine. We were able to see her again today to do a Bible study and she was very excited to see us! She was smiling a lot and thanked us over and over for coming to visit her! It is amazing to see the gospel change peoples lives!
I was thinking about Cristine Joy the other day and it hit me, some of the people that we have been able to share the gospel with, we would have never have met if it weren't for this precious baby! They wouldn't have had a chance to hear the gospel and have eternal life. The same with Agnus, someone brought us to her because her son had died, if her son had not have died her and her husband probably would have never heard the gospel! In terrible situations, God is still able to use them for His glory!
