"Christ wants not nibblers of the possible, but grabbers of the impossible." — C.T. Studd
Dear Family and Friends,
Thank you for all the prayers for the Oussouye “Ewang” ceremony. The 2,000 men and boys who came to dedicate their lives to the fetish and the Oussouye King have left the sacred forest. Life in Oussouye has returned to somewhat normal. One of the boys who was coming to my Bible study last year and was at the ceremony has come back around, one has not. Please pray that God would continue to speak into the darkness His truth and reveal it to many young people in Oussouye.
Kids Club changes each week due to children traveling for vacation and the rice season. I have a large group of new children this year and this makes me extremely happy. This month the kids will be learning more about how Awesome Jesus is. It's fun to watch the children from such varied backgrounds discussing Jesus among themselves. My Friday night teenager Bible study has not really taken off yet, partly due to vacation and Ewang. I have one young man coming out called Isador. Please pray for Isador that he would really hear God's voice and be healed of his epilepsy.
Please pray for my health. I'm feeling weary lately and it's been one little thing after another to trouble me. Pete has also not been well, pray for his health during his training program.
GIRLS CAMP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Our annual Girls Camp is September 15, 16, 17 and 18th. Please mark your calendars and pray with us each day that girls lives would be changed. Each of the women from the Oussouye church will be sharing a message on a different theme. We have tons of games and projects outside of the teaching time. Please pray that God blesses this camp abundantly.
