12 August
Glory to the Lord for you, as you continually keep us in your prayers, and because you have the Lord’s work on your hearts, you have given in His Name to advance any work for the expansion of the Kingdom of God!
We thank you and wish to send you holy greetings in our Lord Jesus Christ!
This question was askes for those who wanted to learn about Jesus Christ; the children were asked this question at the day camp we had. It was amazing to hear their responses, some saying He is the Son of God, while others did not know what to answer.
But we rejoice because everything we do is through the Grace of the Lord and the children heard about Christ’s love and what He has done for each of us, both for the young and the old!
The children heard Bible stories, verses, and songs, all telling of the love and sacrifice of the Lord Jesus, and how they can receive forgiveness of sins and salvation as a gift!
Around 30-40 children came; we were glad to be with them, to play together, to talk with the parents who came with them, and to socialize more, thus becoming better friends and inviting them to our church programs!
The children received booklets with Bible stories and the verses we learned together, and they told us they were very happy to hear about Noah, David, Zacchaeus, Mephibosheth, and Saul!
How wonderful to see on their faces how delighted they were and with what joy they learned the verses and songs!
We pray that the Lord will make this word take root in their hearts and bring forth fruit, both in their lives and in the lives of their parents!
We thank you for your prayers, for the love you have for the Lord’s work and for us!
We are encouraged by the prayers lifted because we know we have to fight against the schemes of the devil, and we have felt this in every work the Lord has placed on our hearts to do!
Right at the beginning of the children’s day camp, we all started to feel agitated, we did not understand each other, and we felt something we could not control, then we realized we had to pray for the Lord to give us the strength to overcome any spirit the evil one wants to place over us to hinder our progress!
Praise the Lord, for through Him we are victorious, and we gave Him glory for the power, wisdom, and victory He has given us, and we successfully completed this day camp with the children and planted the Word of the Lord in their hearts, Glory to Him!
Ephesians 6:12-13
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
Therefore, take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm.
