Day 2

Internet still down:  these updates are pieced together through text and phone calls. Enjoy.

Sunday night phone call:  I shared the gospel with a 17 year old named Michael. He is a roofer. He kept saying he was good. He thought I was crazy. We went to eat lunch and he was at the restaurant. Pray for him.

Monday text: Michael came to LOV today all the way from Dangriga!  He prayed to receive Christ with Corey!!!!

Karen's (missionary in Belize) Facebook update Monday night:

Today we got to be the hands and feet of Jesus. Our LOV partners from Alabama and Florida pulled weeds, carried rocks, scrubbed buildings, mowed . . . Anyway you get the idea. It was very hot humid day full of the kind of light only the people of Jesus can shine when truly serving out of love and obedience to our sweet Lord and Savior. The hot breeze gently kissed my cheek every so often reminded me that God is forever mindful of our needs and delights in His children.
As weariness began to set in, God whispered in my heart, "we are not finished here today." I had been speaking with a young man that a team member disciples yesterday and felt The Lord to nudge me to ask him if he would like to pray the prayer of salvation?  He replied yes with tear filled eyes that are manna to my soul. One of the men were close by and took him to the side to pray.
Sweet Michael, on this day in Belize known as Heroes Day, you claimed the only Hero you will ever need! Welcome to the family little brother.

Today starts VBS for the younger kids at the school.  There are over 300 kids at LOV. 150 will do VBS this week.  Pray for the team as they make much of God by sharing His word.
