Sowing Seeds For the Gospel
Welcome from the Dominican Republic! The team had a very good day. We started out with worship and went to campus to try to share with some new Dominicans. We ran into many people from previous years as well, including a girl named Karen. She is a Jehovah's Witness and very zealous. Briana has shared with her before, and Karen does not let her talk very much about Christianity. Please pray that if we meet her again her heart is softer and that God would give us divine insight to be able to explain truth.
A few of us had some very extensive conversations with other people. Please be praying for Jorge who had never read James 2:10-11. After some of the group members shared that with him he said, "So I am screwed." Please be praying that he would take this verse to heart and would fully understand the weight of his sin and current position before the Lord. Another group member, Jordan, had an hour-long Gospel conversation with another Dominican. Please be praying that Jordan would have another opportunity to meet with him.
We have been able to spend a lot of time with a few group members from La Vid as well, especially Yuri. Please pray for her and Melina as they are the main women laborers of La Vid. Pray that God would strengthen and encourage them and give them wisdom on how to love and disciple women. In two days we will be traveling to Yuri's house to have dinner with her family and are praying about if we should do a Bible Study in her community. Our group deeply appreciates your prayers and support. Thanks!
