We had a restful and quiet weekend. We spent a lot of time reading and relaxing. Saturday we had Ernie over so we could play games. Rob lost twice in Yahtzee:) This was a good time for us to fellowship together without focusing on the work that needs done.
Sunday we went to worship at Manivakkam. Pastor Lawrence has been there for a little over a year. The pastor who had been at this church previously left after major sin in his life and Lawrence is struggling to help the church recover. He has had major issues with the church board and with the finances of the church. We are going to have him meet with our mission manager and national missionary in hopes that they can assist him with his current struggles. We will also continue to pray that god will provide for them.
We also heard a report from Pastor Stephen. He is a new pastor and doing an incredible job. He called to tell us that they had a twelve hour continuous prayer service in which they had seventy attend. He is very filled with joy when he talks of the ministry he is involved in at Periakulum. There have been several new families join and he is planning a baptism service for this upcoming weekend.
