Today is the second day, and the Worship Team and several members of the Children’s Ministry Team entered Ouje- Bougoumou for Sunday Service. Praise the Lord, as both teams travelled there and back safely. The Worship Team was also able to lead Worship in the Cultural Village!
The Renovation Team enjoyed a day of rest, for the following week will definitely be filled with strenuous, hard work.
However, the Children Ministry continued to prepare the skits, songs and crafts for the upcoming week. And they too, found rest afterwards by canoeing, paddle-boating and playing softball at the Gabriel Lodge.
At 4:30pm, the entire JSTM Team drove up to Mistissini. We spent the afternoon around the reserve, along the lake and at the Perch River, where the camp meeting will be held next week. This uplifting experience allowed us to see how beautiful God’s creations truly are. From the dazzling sun and marvelous lake, to the giant fish that the locals showed us, we were able to catch a hint of their lifestyle by the water!
As the JSTM Team headed back to the Gabriel Lodge, the Worship Team had the opportunity to stay back for Sunday Service by the Perch River! Although our visit was short, our team got back quite late (around 10pm). However, God blessed us with a wonderful Kitchen Team, who cooked up a storm of Korean Beef and rice for us to eat! We were definitely thankful for this late meal.
Please continue to pray for the upcoming week. Our prayer requests consist of:
1. Our team’s health and safety- especially for the drivers on the road and the Renovation Team, for they may be working under physically risky settings this week
2. The native people and our team’s spiritual growth and relationship with God- as we will come in contact with them this week, we ask God to open their hearts and our hearts as well, so that they may be willing to hear and accept the good news about Jesus Christ!
Until next time,
JSTM 2012
