End of Week Three!
Hola! Week three as come and gone! This week our teacher was Jack Kody. He is an amazing teaching and has a gift from God to touch people’s hearts with every word. He taught on the Father Heart of God. Unfortunately, Jack could not stay the whole week so we had to jam a week’s worth of lessons into three days. To do so we had afternoon class. Also Jack entertained us for two evenings as well. On Monday night, Jack showed us Finding Nemo, to make us think about how far God, our Father, would go for us. On Wednesday night Jack took all of us to the movies! He paid for all of us to see Kung Fu Panda and bought us a popcorn combo on top of that. Jack took the time to get to know us and show us love as a father would their children, and as God would His children. It was a very powerful shift to start thinking of God as the loving Father He is. On Thursday, we went back to the same location as last week to continue our work in local outreach. We continued digging and moving dirt and also moved bricks. It was quite the work out but with God as my strength nothing is too hard. On Friday we ended the week with our first memorization quiz. We had to memorize Philippians 3: 7 -14. It was hard but I managed to do it! I was very proud of myself. Back tracking a bit on Tuesday for our pray time the theme was giving. We were asking to ask God who and what we should give. Some people gave bible verses or words of advice. God told me to give internet minutes to Andy, one of my class mates who has been very homesick. Ashley gave Paola all the money she needed to pay for her lecture phase. It was wonderful to see God move in all of us. I was given a gold necklace from Lucy, who is from El Salvador. She was given it for Christmas. She said God told her to give it to me but she didn’t know why. I don’t know why either, but I am sure that soon enough the meaning of the necklace will unveil itself. So, one person down and still three more to go! I have written a support letter for them. Please keep them in your prays. I will attach the support letter. It still has the amount including Paola’s money needed, so the amount needed is around $1200 less than that listed. If you have any questions feel free to email me at bousquetd@hotmail.com. Thank you
