Great is the Lord and Greatly to be Praised!

My sin, not in part but the whole, is nailed to the cross and I bear it no more! Praise the Lord Oh my soul!

This weekend there were 5 people saved at our church! Let me introduce you to them...

Isabel has been visiting the church over the past few weeks and has shown a desire for spiritual things. Saturday she walked about 5 miles to visit one of our ladies who had offered to do a Bible study with her. Marcia brought her to our evangelism training/planning meeting and afterward they went through "the Bridge" tract. That night Isabel prayed, confessing her sins to the Lord and asking Him to save her. She said she cried tears of joy and hope as she prayed. Please pray for the rest of her family to be saved.

Isabelle the 6 year old daughter of Isabel was saved Sunday evening after the service. We are praising the Lord for this first member of Isabel's family that was saved.

Cristian (6yrs), who's parents own a bar, lives across the street from one of our families. Cristian has come to several special outreaches of the church and on Sunday night he asked Christ to save him. I was so excited to hear of his salvation, what chance does the child of a bar owner have to know the Lord unless someone who loves the Lord will share with him.

Wellington, (10 yrs.) has been coming to church with his mom for the past few months. On Thursdays my class has been doing lessons based on the tract "2 ways to live" and he has been to every lesson. I have been praying that he would see his need to be saved. Sunday night, he too accepted Christ as his savior.

Ana Louisa, (8 or 9 yrs.) is a neighbor of another of our church families. She too has participated in various church activities over the years. Sunday afternoon we had lunch with our church family who lives near her and our kids played with her all afternoon. Sunday night she came to church and accepted Christ as her savior.

I am so thankful to God for all that He is doing. It seems like so many times we don't see His working. Are we praying? Are we seeking to do things in our own power and for our glory or for His. He does not want to share His glory with us, let us work for His glory alone.
