Sorry I'm not being consistent with my weekly emailing. Sometimes there's just not enough time in the day. But a lot has been happening and the work pushes forward.
We've seen a lot of hardships, but we are also seeing a lot of blessings. Lately, so many more people have been attending church, whether it be investigators, Less actives, recent converts, or just random people on the street, we are blessed to have so many people have the desire to feel the spirit. I'm grateful for how the spirit works within people to motivate them to act more then themselves. I goes to show that when the spirit is felt, lives are changed.
So Ntambi richard was supposed to be baptized two weeks ago, but then he got chicken pox. We gave him a blessing and he recovered very quickly just in time for his baptism, but then the church building is getting renovated and the baptism room was all taped up and just messy with wet paint. So, richard will be baptized this upcoming sunday. Even though his baptism is pushed back, he's still excited and ready to make a covenant with God. There's also sister rachel, she loves coming to church and she's staying very far, but she always makes time to come to church. Her english may not be the best, but she is working hard to fully understand and feel the spirit.
Not a lot this week, but I'm just grateful for fasting. Fasting is the way that god see's our desires seriously. He puts our requests into serious consideration. and I'm grateful for it, because it helps me to recognize how the Lord works through His spirit. There's a sense of confidence and desire that grows continually in this work and I love the guidance that the holy spirit brings. I hope you all have a great week and remember who you are and what you stand for!
