Kabar! (news!)
Tuesday, June 5th, 2007This month started off with a big bang! Another youth festival in the village of Perbesi! (pics below) It was two fun packed nights with prizes, movie, music concert, games, etc! The young people and kids there were so excited!
It was a real joy to bring the gospel to this village.. because it really needs it! Although the village is from a Hindu background it is now full of many different religions.. the community is really searching for what is true. They are known to be a very hard people. This was proven while we were there.. we didnt get the excited and happy welcome we do in most villages. You could see how this had even affected the children, even at such a young age! They were some of the roughest and most misbehaved children I have ever seen. For example they were throwing bloody squirrel tails at some of us! I guess this is some weird form of persecution for the gospel!! Hahaha.. It is such a joy to bring the gospel to places that really need it! While preaching the 2nd night I told the people. Mukjizat akan terjadi di tempat ini malam ini! (Miracles will happen in this place tonight!) They looked at me like I was crazy… But after we prayed an overjoyed woman came up on the stage.. Shed been blind for 5 years.. but that night she showed all the people how she could see again! It was such an amazing moment! Jesus had proven himself! All the glory to Him! Praise God! The village of Perbesi got to hear and see the gospel! (more…)
