Prayer partners,
It is evident with noticeably cooler weather (with the exception of an occasional 79 degree day) that we are moving into fall!
But there are other indications that we are on the precipice of seasonal change -- our English Language Bible study has started in Akadem! We greatly like the format of the Bible study, which includes an intro, a joke, 2 songs, and a Bible story where we ask questions and prompt the group toward discussion in English.
Our first evening, this past Tuesday, saw 10 people from last spring's ESL school come to give the Bible study a try. Although the makeup of our first day's group was mostly older women, we are hoping that passing out flyers near the school as well as word of mouth will cause even more people to begin coming.
We are currently looking at the life of King David, and we feel that his trials and failures afford an outstanding opportunity to highlight the necessity of God's grace in everyday life. The idea is, with each lesson, to show how God was working, and to show how ultimately our own failures lead us to the foot of the cross!
Continue praying and we will keep scattering seed to see on whom it falls!
