Update, March 22, 2008 Loakan, Antamok

We had a good trip across the mountains to Loakan, Antamok this morning. It was a trip over some pretty rough roads and the car took a beating, but seemed to do well. It is a small gold mining village, which because it is a bit hard to get to, is rather small and quiet. We were able to hand out several tracts and Emmaus correspondence courses on salvation to folks along the street as well as to the contacts that we have there.

Some of you may remember a couple of months ago Wini Mata, one of the elders at the assembly at Navy Base hit a young child who had to be hospitalized for over a month. Well, as it turns out, this family is where we had the short bible study, and they have become our contact family in Antamok. As of yet none of the family has made a profession of faith, but they have welcomed us with open arms and are very happy to have bible studies in their home.

We met with the Barrangay Captain of the town to get permission to hold a VBS program there in May, and to return for a puppet show at a later date. The town seems to be open to it. Please pray for souls to be saved.

The message on Good Friday went well, for which we thank the Lord, the gospel was presented and challenges given. We trust the Lord will use it for His glory.

Thank you for praying for us and our trip. The Lord kept us safe and kept the car running well….



A take-home Gift.
