First Week

I finally have gotten the chance to use the internet. I wasn't sure if I'd be able to.

Well, I am almost done with my first week in Africa. It's been amazing. From the first step onto Africa soil, to giving my testimony in front of a class of 40 2nd graders, to singing in Portugese, and seeing people saved. We are going to mostly elementary schools, and some High Schools, and presenting packets with the New Testament and a couple other pieces of literature. We split into teams, go into a classroom, and our interpreter will talk for a couple minutes to the class, explaining what we are doing. Then one of us will give our testimony in English, and our Interpreter will translate for the class. After that, we hand out the packets, and then sometimes we'll sing "God is So Good" in Portugese. It's called Deus e Tao Bom here. Then it's off to the next classroom.
So far we've had some 40+ people saved. Especially in the high schools that we've visited. Keep praying for more souls to be saved. We only have a limited amount of time, and we want to reach as many people as we can in the time frame that we have. Pray for Unity in the team members, that we'll be able to work well together.
And if you're wondering, we aren't roughing it here in Africa. We have hot showers at night, good food, okay transportation, etc... We can get our laundry done anytime we want. :) I sometimes wish that it had been rougher, but then I get my common sense back. :)

Hopefully I'll be able to post once more before I leave, but we'll see about that.
