April 11 - Tim

Today was the last day of children's training for our time in Kalaw. We taught on relationship with God. Atalie shared how one of the young boys in the photography group who didn't want to come to camp, walked away inspired to use photography to share the gospel with those he is seeking to reach for Christ.We also had the privilege of meeting another local missionary who is from the US. She shared her story of how God brought her here. Part of her ministry is helping to translate the Bible into a local tribal language that doesn't have the Scriptures. This next week she is preparing for a 5-day youth camp at Poni and Hannah's farm.Last night we had a fellowship meeting with our team and some of the youth and ministers at the boarding house. We sang some songs and shared testimonies of God's grace and faithfulness in our lives. It was really encouraging! At the end we prayed together--the presence of God was so refreshing and edifying for us all.I have been praying that the Lord leads us to the right people and that we could really encourage the believers here. I can see how The Lord is graciously allowing us to do this. We had the opportunity to lay hands and pray over Poni, Hannah, and their children. They said how we have been a divinely appointed blessing and encouragement to them all. By God's grace, we are being strengthened to face the spiritual opposition, and to be willing vessels for His glory.Tim
