Roy Boy's Recap

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.
