We just wrapped up our forth day of teaching in the bible institute. We learned that hot weather is simply the absense of the wind here. One of the young ladies that has been attending came up to us and thanked us for our teaching and told us that it is helping her to understand the bible better. It has helped her to see that the God of the Old Testament is not a mean and cruel god, but instead he offers Israel repeated forgiveness and redemption. That was pretty cool to hear. That is exactly the kind of truth that we are trying to communicate. The students (pastors and laymen) have been contributring good questions to the discussion and seem to be eager to learn. We are looking forward to our last day with them tomorrow. Please continue to lift up the teaching, the pastors, and the relationships being formed. Thanks.
p.s. Bendiciones y dios te bendiga.

We continue to pray for you guys. Teaching is not easy. Paul described it as hard work. You feel emotionally and mentally drained. But it's worth it. Thank you for giving of yourselves to build up the body of Christ.

I'm so proud of you all and thank God every day for your great work there. May you truly experience yourselves as ministers of the Kingdom - called and placed for that very task. Nothing will quite inspire you to continue deepening your walk with Christ as the experiences you are getting right now.
