Pool, kids and shepherds

If Jesus was in Makatano, our nearby town, where would he hang out? Perhaps he'd be at the pool tables and with the kids during the day and up on the hills with the farmers at night.

Akira reports:
Thursday was wildly fun!!! One of the pastors from the church we have been working with took us to a few places were young men play pool, gamble and drink all day.

It was amazing to have the attention of all the men who were there. They stopped and gathered together and we got to share the gospel with them all :) The response was amazing -many guys surrender their lives to Christ and repented. It was so evident even while sharing the gospel that the Holy Spirit doing something. We also had a few people share their testimonies and got to chat to the guys individually afterwards.

The pastor was very encouraged and said we have now made a platform from him to go there to disciple them. GOD IS GOOD.

We were invited to a school during our evangelism the day before so on Thursday afternoon we went to share with ~200 children and teachers. It was really fun and the children loved it.

Thursday night was even more fun: we walked about 3km to a nearby farm and shared the gospel around a campfire with all the labours there.  We did some songs and drank sweet tea under the stars:) A lot of the men responded and we got to pray with them.

It's so humbling and so much fun being used as a clay jar for Jesus. 2 Corinthians 4v7
