Round Two

This morning, twenty six people are going to come to the mission from the United States, mainly from a church in Arkansas.  At the end of last year, Allison, Michelle and I went to a revival service with Pastor Rick at the church in Arkansas and gave our testimonies.  After the services we prayed for people and there were many people who received healing from the Lord.  This will be our second group and we start quickly by going to a church tonight.  Tomorrow, the 20th and the 22nd are the only evenings we do not have churches! 

The time with the other five interns this past week has been a great time of intimate bible study, worship and opening up to one another about past experiences.  One thing lacking in the church today is real fellowship.  What I mean by this is brothers and sisters in Christ actually talking about their struggles and their victories, their deep wounds from the past and their vision for the future.  We are to fulfil the law of Christ by bearing one anothers burdens, we are to seek the Kingdom of God and His righteousness and we are to press on towards the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.  Allow others to open up to you and open up to others so that the love of Christ can be shown to you through them and so that you can experience the love of Christ through them towards you.  Sitting in front of a television screen making very shallow conversation will not allow you, nor the other people to see the real love of Christ.  Accept people and help them get past their past!  Love them no matter what they have done! 

More pictures will be uploaded to Rick's Blog later this week or early next week.
