Month: April 2013

Today we celebrated the 1 year anniversary of our church plant! (April 29th is the actual day we started services.)  We are so thankful for what the Lord is doing and the people He has brought us!  We had a total of 26 in attendance! We had a special time of singing. Two men who have been coming faithfully gave testimonies of their salvation and what the Lord has been doing in their lives.  We also had a special video greeting from our pastor in the U.S., as well as two other missionary friends in the U.S.  The Lord really blessed and we are humbled by His grace towards us. We pray this church plant will endure if God wills until Jesus comes again and that it will be a lighthouse for the Lord in our community, district, city, region,  country, and the world! Here are some pictures of the day: 

They are paving the side road where the church plant is.  Thankfully, we still have water because our water connection is on the main road, but for many on our street that is not the case and they all have to share the connection you see below.

We had a good kids club on Saturday!  Below you will see some pictures of the kids being Queen Esther and King Ahaserous.  The Lord blessed us with great services this morning also!  We praise Him for bringing us a family of first time visitors this morning!

We praise the Lord for giving us a wonderful day to celebrate His resurrection!  While we celebrate His resurrection every Sunday.  Easter Sunday is always a great reminder of the hope and victory we have as Christians each and everyday because of Jesus’ resurrection.  The Lord granted us a beautiful day along with great services.  We were blessed to have a family visit with us for the first time this morning also, praise the Lord!  After the services we had everyone over to our house for lunch.  Rebecca cooked all afternoon Saturday getting ready and the people pitched in bringing food as well.  We had a great time of fellowship.  It was such a privilege to spend Easter with the church family that God is giving us!  Here are some pictures of the weekend:
