Day 3

I have thought many times today about what I would write because SO much is going on. We spent the day worshiping with many people from a war torn area. Many heard about Jesus for the first time ever. We heard several stories of people seeing dreams and coming to the ministry center. One of the Pastor’s that joined us told us of his hatred for the people he now serves. There are just so many God size stories! The thing that has broke. My heart over and over is each person we talked to who had lost a husband, a family member, but the one that brings tears to my eyes is the small girl with beautiful brown eyes whose mom and home were lost to a bomb. So much hatred, killing, chaos and yet these people are finding love, life and hope in Jesus! Glory to God. He is so faithful!!! Please pray that the cease fire that is supposed to start tomorrow will hold and that soon our friends will get to go home. Pray as we visit a University tomorrow and work with children tomorrow afternoon. God is working here and we are seeing the difference He makes all around us. One last blessing, we saw the mountain today where Jesus was transfigured. It was far in the distance but it was there. I am blown away that we have seen places Jesus walked. WOW! I will give you more stories when we return home.
