Dokas
Wife of Joka, she hasn’t come to anything we’ve done until now. She’s been at the study at Terry’s house the last two weeks and is really into it. Pray for her.

Ephesians 6.12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world rulers of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavens.

Edwin
After years of Edwin coming to us with an ax to grind, it’s exciting to see God changing his heart and attitudes. But today he literally came with an ax to grind.
Another Sad Day
Today another child was buried. This is the grave with Joka, the grave digger, on the right and Tomas, the father, sitting above it. Tomas is the man from our post “Chipping Away” who said he wanted me to come and teach their group some time. Pray for them.
The Word Spreads
This is Ken, a young husband and father who lives across the river. He didn’t attend our teaching, but has been coming to our church meetings. Api has taken it upon himself to meet daily with Ken and his family to walk them through the gospel. We are excited for Ken to hear and thrilled about Api’s enthusiasm–God is clearly doing a mighty work in and through him.
