GRACE ’09 III – DAY SEVEN

Written by Teddie on July 1st, 2009

Yesterday saw the highest attendance our BBC folks have seen all week as at least 240 children filled the church for the final service.  I am told that it went very well and our team members who were involved seem very pleased.  I have said it before but it is worth saying again – those South Carolina folks do an awesome job in hosting a Backyard Bible Club!  They love it!  I appreciate Tico’s girls going with them again to serve as translators.  Thank God for a good week of BBC. 

Our building teams built four more houses bringing the total for the week to 24.  The cement teams poured cement in 8 more houses meaning all 24 houses now have cement.  We need to put the fronts on about 7 or 8 houses and they will all be complete.  That will take place this morning. 

God gave us a great day yesterday concerning the weather as we were building.  We got back to the mission house to prepare for the village ministry and the bottom fell out.  It delayed our leaving for the village ministry but it still went well as we saw 99 families which equaled 331 folks.  The team did very well in ministering to those folks in the village of Los Corrales. 

Our morning begins at 6:30AM with our time in worship and the Word.  We will then head to San Lorenzo & San Jose Chirijuyu to dedicate the 24 houses.  Each family will be presented with a gift bag including the IPod with the messages from Charles Stanley.  Lazaro Suruy, Juan Marcos Ruiz, and Max Lara will help with the dedications and presenting the Gospel. 

The afternoon will be spent getting ready to leave tomorrow.  Pray for us.  We have two or three who have been sick but they appear to be on the mend.
