Happy Sunday

10/27/2019

Our team spent the morning in worship at Leader United Methodist Church. The music was Spirit-filled; the sermon was instructive and the offerings successful. Sunday school began at 9:30, followed by worship at 10:00. What energy and love.  The guest speaker began his teaching (2 hours and fifteen minutes into the service) about how to move forward through a three step process:  gaining perspective, asking good questions and setting a target for the future.

​After lunch, we loaded up and went to visit 10 sponsor children in their homes. Karen Roeming’s family has been sponsoring Isata for two years. In the picture below you see Isata trying to give something back to Karen, whose family has made such a difference in Isata’s life. Karen politely declined.

​The Sponsor a Child Program through Helping Children Worldwide is truly a difference maker. Over 500 children have sponsors through HCW, but many more do not. If you would be interested in helping to care for these special ones, you can find out more here.
As the day drew to a close we celebrated the anniversary of Melody’s 29th birthday. Fudia was kind enough to make a chocolate cake. We thank God for our friend Melody and for each of you.

Love, In Christ!
