We have had some pretty busy days lately.
Getting back into the swing of school last week took some extra effort. It is always hard to get going again after vacation! Teddy is doing very well in school though and we had a good week.
On Friday afternoon, our friends, Joe and Sylvia Wells came over from Santo Domingo. We enjoyed visiting with them through the afternoon and evening. Saturday morning we all went to Porto Viejo for their Building Dedication. That made for a very long day. The service was very nice. Tony preached and did a great job as usual. 11 people besides us went over from our church. Cristobal, Nelly and Joselyn sang a special. There were several churches represented.
Today we had a good service here in Manta. We had 100 in the church service. With several first time visitors. Next Sunday we will have a baptism service and so far there are 3 people planning to be baptized.
We also had sign up sheets today for 2 new Bible Studies starting this coming week. One on Friday evenings at 7:30 and the other on Sunday evenings at 6:00. There are about 13 people signed up for each of those.
Starting this coming Sunday, Tony, Teddy and I will be making the trip to Porto Viejo on Sundays. Please pray for us as we lead this congregation until the Lord sends them a new Pastor. Pray for the work here in Manta too. At this time we will be going over there on Sunday afternoons.
Another special prayer request is for one of the ladies in our church, Barbara Castro. She is in the hospital now and is schedule for surgery on Tuesday.
Pray for Teddy, he seems to be getting sick this afternoon. He is complaining of a head ache and running a temp.
Thank you for your prayers!
Joy
