Team from Missouri

We finished up with our first volunteer team last Thursday. They were incredible. It was a group of Senior Citizens from First Baptist Church, Harvester, MO. Out of the 11 people that came, the youngest was about 65 and the oldest 81, and they worked circles around us. They came to prayer walk and distribute literature throughout the city and managed to cover 5 districts of our city, which would comprise a little less than half the town in population density. AWESOME!!! This is the first time the majority of people living in these five districts heard of the love of Christ. We are so excited!

Here are some pictures of the team at work:
Here they are assembling all of the material for the next day's distribution.

And here they are giving it all out:


Always with a smile...



Loading up their backpacks once again

Here is one woman looking over the material she has just been handed

Even the kids got in on the action as the women handed them Tootsie Roll Pops.

This was their final day on top of the fort after our final time of prayer together. As you can see, they are still smiling.


Praise the Lord for this team and for how He used them in this city. Pray that their diligent labor will not be in vain and that many will respond to the truth they read in the material they were given.
