After the English
Camp, we went to have a cell group meeting with a daughter and mother near the
school where we had just taught. These 2
ladies have been Christians for some time. However, they live about 45 minutes
from the nearest church. If they were to go by car, they would have to travel over
pothole-laden roads. Therefore,
missionaries Ross and Shirley meet monthly with the group. The Bible study
began with enthusiastic singing and a time of praise. Later an 11-year-old girl
rode up on her bike and joined the group.
Her nickname was Bang. She wanted to study with us. Her mother was a Christian, but had to work
to help keep the family from being in debt.
The girl worked too, but wanted to come and study the Bible. We talked about worship and why it was
important to meet together regularly. We
were surprised at how thoughtful the young girl’s answers were to questions in
the lesson. She even volunteered to expand on the answers given by others in
the group. Quite remarkable for an 11 year old! Praise God for Bang and her
desire to follow God. Pray that Bang’s step-father will also be convicted to follow Jesus and
they can all worship God together.Monday, August 8, 2016
