I had a great men’s class this week. Jeff would be proud with all the rabbits we
chased. But in chasing those rabbits we
got the men to talk and make the class their own. I want to thank everyone who prepared me,
encouraged me, and prayed for me to be able to handle this great act that God
had for me to do for Him. We talked
about the road to salvation, touched on some of the qualifications for elders
and deacons for a lesson about how to be a Christian man, and the last day we
talked about how a Christian man should act in the world. During theses class we talked about how and
when we came to Christ and when we were baptized. We also got asked other random questions that
the men wanted to know. It was great
seeing what their hearts wanted to know.
This week has been very unsure of
the plan and schedule of what we were going to be able to do, but everything we
wanted to do was accomplished. It is
amazing to see what happens when you get out of the way and let God lead. The silly string activity was awesome and hearing
the children and all of us laugh was welcomed in this time of sadness at the
orphanage. The center is coming together
very nicely, Gary has done a great job inside with the directing the painters
and also doing a lot of painting himself, and Glen has done an excellent job of
cleaning up the outside of the center. The
ladies have learned how to be patient this week due to the fact that they only
have one bathroom to share between 13 of them and have to sit in line to use
it. I am glad I had the opportunity to share this
experience with my wife and youngest daughter.
