Adopted.........by God!:

Our last service was a truly blessed one .... wonderful worship, good responses to preaching and to conclude with a baptism.

I baptised 3 believers this morning and count a real privelige to do this and these people were delightful. The irrigation tank was outside near to the church building and many gathered to witness this event.

Afterwards we came back in and had a good chat with our co-pastors in this region and also a wonderful time with the 20+ orphans who IVCM helps. We provide clothes, food and some basic education. It is absolutely minimal help as we don’t currently have enough funds to run a proper program. These are the kids who want to stay at our eventual new building on the land we own nearby. 

The kids enjoyed having sweets, and all were given the knitted teddies (see pics), such a simple gift brought great joy to their hearts as they don’t get much help. Some bed sheets were also distributed.

It seemed strange to think this was our last service and time of ministry, all the programs, outreach, bible distribution had come to an end. We love these people as they are so special, warm and loving. They have so little compared to Western standards and yet are rich in Christ! Thanks for your prayers and support without them we would not have managed! We are now aiming to rest and take some personal refreshment, as we are totally zapped!

Bless you in Jesus name.
