Trip Time - Part III
Well, we just arrived back from this last one, and it was a joy to be with the sister we'll call Rain. She came to help us "scout the land"
before she brought back a group of brothers and sisters (students) in a few weeks to go and tell the Guiqiong people the good news. You may remember that we had traveled to this place May '05 as a family, and that Mike and some guys went last December to give them some "Christmas presents", J films, radios, little books. This is an area where we have had open invitation from the village government leaders to share, but we have had difficulty finding a group willing to go in and do just that. SO we were THRILLED when our sister said "yes."
We were pretty amazed that the people remembered our family from last May, especially asking where our daughter was. We were invited to their festival and treated very warmly by two wives of village leaders. In other villages in the area, we were invited by grandmothers to come and have tea. In yet another village we were entertained by four little girls as they sang and danced Chinese and Tibetan songs for us. It was a delightful time.
The neatest thing that we saw was that we had open invitation everywhere. Why? WE believe it was because of Father's timing, because of an obedient servant in Rain to delight people with her laughter and love, and, because of people pr-ing. Rain really hit it off with 5 college-age young people- 2 nomads, one girl for the bigger city outside her area, and three from the main village. They know Whom she believes in, and are ready to hear the stories when she returns.
She has been invited to the nomads' village, which made our hearts soar, because when friends went to this place last year, the reception was not as favorable.
We do not attach pictures to this note, but a list: along with Rain, we are asking that you lift the following names up as they prepare to go to the G people and share the stories of the One True God. His Word never returns void. We have seen the power of pr in other areas, we are asking Him, expecting Him, anticipating Him to show up in this area.
We look forward to sharing His results with you. Maybe even a picture!
To Him belong the Guiqiong! To Him belong all the praise and glory, both now and forevermore!
All For His Glory- Mike and Trish, Anna and Kenan Our brothers and sisters- Rain, Sophia, Sophie, Violet, Yager, Joshua, Willie, Vincent, Leo, David, Brill, and Leon.
