Stories and Testimonies Shared

A few more stories/testimonies were shared and they are here for you to pray about and praise God for the work in progress!

Good Shepherd Orphanage - the kids (Peruvian and American! big and small!) had a blast playing together! The salvation bracelets and cards were explained and given out. The children knew what the colors stand for. They have learned this from other visitors. It was an opportunity to hide God's Word in their hearts.

Pachacutec - Three teenage girls, one young man, a lady, all accepted the Lord Jesus Christ as Savior at one drama site. Many responded after the other TEAM shared the drama as well. One lady was angry because she missed her bus. She stopped to watch the drama. She shared afterwards that she is a Christian, but needed prayer. She was thankful to God (that she missed her bus!)

San Auagustin School - We were not allowed to present the Gospel. Andy did what we could. Not open to our presence. There appeared to be spiritual opposition. The sound system started having problems at the point of Jesus' death.

On the street - At the end a couple came forward in order to get the crowd to come forward. They are Christians and renewed their wedding vows 5 months ago. They pray that God will use them in marriage ministries.

Have you ever thought about similar opportunities there at home in the states? We may not have a skit or drama to do. We may not draw a crowd on the street corner. What can we do? We can walk and talk boldly for and about Jesus. Wear our Christian t-shirts. Share what He is doing in our lives. Give Him the glory publicly. Offer to pray with those we know are hurting. Such opportunities abound. We just need to look for them, seize the moment, and pray for discernment in using the time God has given.
