Today, we went back to the church at Colonia. We did door to door evangelism as soon as we got there. We felt as though we all planted many seeds. Our prayer is that others will come along and water those seeds. We witnessed to a very special young man named Elmer. He was probably in his 20´s. We told him that we had an Elmer back in the States. He gave all of us on the team a Spanish Christian CD. He was ripe for the harvest. He accepted Christ right away. It is so humbling to go into some of these homes. So many homes may only be cardboard with paper table cloths lining the inside walls and ceiling of the home. Several people wanted us to pray for God´s healing for blindness, deafness and one lady felt several masses in her body. She said they were very painful. Most people here cannot afford food to eat let alone money for a doctor or hospital visit.
The Backyard Bible club went well after lunch. We only had about 40 children today, but God still blessed in a mighty way. They all made wood plaques to take home for a craft. Harold, Vicky, Rickey, Jenna, and a couple of young ladies from the church did the puppets. The children screamed with excitement, and sang lots of songs. We shared the Bible Story about the crucifixion of Jesus and how He arose on the 3rd day. Many raised their hands to receive Christ. At the end they all enjoyed the piniata filled with hard candy. Wednesday we will leave early and go to the Ranch where Jesse Tiner lives. We will do Backyard Bible Club there and door to door evangelism. Jesse will also give us a tour of the ranch. We will have travel a good way to get there. To God we give all praise, honor and glory for everything.
