We go to a prayer service every Thursday evening. usually, it takes place at one of the local lady's house, but for the last 2 weeks, it was at our house. We had a very blessed time, even some ladies that usually do not come showed up. We have interesting discussions during our meetings, and its always nice to know that you have a support group, so to speak. Some of the ladies had special prayer requests, and we take those very seriously. Each of them also prays daily for their families, as some members of their family have not yet come to the Lord. please support them and us in prayer.
Every meeting with them is a bit funny to me personally, because I'm not fully accustomed to the way they talk. At times, it seems as though they are telling each other off, even though one is just explaining a point to another. And they love debating. They make me think of sisters =D
They pray for and encourage one another, though, and that makes me so happy. Yesterday, for instance, one mentioned that she has been upset with the Lord; and two or three others began a pep talk right away. "Don't worry," they said. "Just trust in the Lord, believe that He knows what He's doing. We will pray for you together, and we'll keep praying. Hang in there, sister."
It's just so sweet. Our leader also read psalm 27 for us, and said that its a very good psalm to read when we're feeling down. It is. David was truly a man after God's own heart.
They stayed for tea last week, but this week hurried off, probably because it was getting dark. We didnt let them leave, however, unless they at least tried our new jam. They loved it.
We love our local ladies, and wish them and their families blessings in abundance!
Continue to pray for us, we are always in need of a blessing. Thanks so much
