Update for Thursday, 10/2/08
Dr. Johnny Wan led the team to study Psalm 96 during the morning devotional time, reminding us to proclaim His salvation day after day and declare His glory among the nations.
Pastor Han took us to three Belizean families and prayed for one young man and two old ladies, all were in critical sick conditions. The young man had sores all over his body and suffered lots of pains and itchiness. It almost took us back to Jesus’ days when he healed the leprosy by touching him (Mark1:40-41). How much do we hope that this young man could be healed in a miraculous way , knowing it is His sovernty to make things happen. We also saw with our own eyes how people could live in very simple conditions and still survive with contentment.
We went to the farm of a Taiwanese Christian community (San-Yi-Song, or Praise the Trinity) – a big family living together and growing vegetables on their own as a meaning of providing daily need. Elder Tsai prayed for our STM team and shared with us how they fast during every lunch time for the body of Christ all over the world.
We visited 12 stores and two families. It was raining very hard, and there were few people visiting the stores, giving us opportunity to share gospel with the store owners.
At night, we had dinner in a missionary couple’s home. Ken and Lisa has served in Belize for 19 years. Mrs. Hsu /Cindy and Johnnies (Jr. & Sr.) led the girl’s team and boy’s team to share on holy Christian life styles. Brother Johnny Jr asked the boys to write down their sins and burned the paper in the barbecue oven, sybolizing God’s cleasing of sins and encourage them to live according to 1 Tim 4:12. It was so great to be with the young peole and see how they eagerly learn to grow in Christ.
Update for Friday, 10/3/08
In the morning, Mark led the morning devotion by sharing our multiple relationships to Christ – His servants,disciples,friends, family and bride (as a collective body).
We visited a local free markets and gave away more fliers and Zhongxin. King-Kuen and Mrs. Hsu went to a local family to comfort a lady who lost two dear ones recently and prayed for her salvation.
We also met three yound men in a local store, the older one was very open to the gospel, Dr. Wan had a very pleasant talk with him.
After having a simple but delicious Belizean lunch provided by brother Lin’s family, we went to George Price Center to set up equipment for tonight’s meeting.
The evangelical meeting started at 10:00 PM. Sister Cindy, Piazza and King Kuen gave their personal testimonies and Rev. Yang delivered a message about Peace from God. There were about 50 people showing up, including the three young men we met before.
We went back to Prayer Mountain about 12:30 AM. It has been a long day, but we were filled of joy.
