Day Three


We picked up where we left off yesterday by continuing to hand out fliers in the neighborhoods. We ran out of fliers and had to make a quick copy run to print more! When we operate as a team, we really can cover a lot of ground and accomplish tasks quickly. Afterwards, we headed back to the elementary school for the afternoon and worked on various projects they had for us. We assisted in rearranging their library, which meant moving books and shelves, as well as some more compiling of booklets for the students. Some of the work has been tedious, but it's awesome to know that we are being a blessing to many of the people who work at the school and otherwise would have to do these things by themselves.



After dinner, we headed out to give away more water bottles. Everyone was really looking forward to doing this again, and the team really dove into it right away. We had a great time blessing people with cold water, and we're hopeful that some of them might choose the visit the church sometime in the near future. I asked some of the students to give me a quick description of what they thought of handing out the water...here's what they came up with:









Tomorrow we will be finishing up handing out invites in the neighborhood, as well as wrapping up our work with the school. In the evening, the plan is to bless Pastor Chris and his wife with some free babysitting and a night out so they can relax together. You can join with us in prayer for...

- God to move on the hearts of people who receive invites or water bottles
- Continued favor with the school for Pastor Chris and Coldwater Church
- For our students to rely on God's strength and direction as we minister
- For Pastor Chris and his family, that God would continue to honor and bless them for their sacrifice and commitment
