On July 4th Debbie arrived safely in Nashville with the medical escort. Her hernia surgery is now scheduled for July 14th. The Lord's tender care was evident each step of the way.
Verlin had adventures of his own when he returned to Bondoukou. One that happened Thursday shows the continued openness for sharing and multiplying points of light to testify of Good News in Cote d'Ivoire. As he began to work on a report, a crashing noise sent him outdoors. A backhoe operator arriving to the road in front of our house swerved to prevent an accident with children. He stopped by taking out part of the wall surrounding our property! Verlin's calm reaction led to an interaction that created a make-shift repair while the foreman agreed to correct the destruction and evade firing the worker. Beyond this witness, an English learning brick-layer indicated that he and some friends would be interested in a Bible study. A community contact was made to follow-up on CHE based change introduced to a nearby location years ago, as Verlin shared about our reason for being in Cote d'Ivoire. See Transforming Touches for a video link and a DMM definition to understand more what we do together with your help.
- Thank you for praying for a good outcome to Debbie's surgery on the 14th.
- Pray that all involved are aware of Christ so that "yes be yes" and "no be no" (Mt 5:37; James 1:17-2-13) This will allow for quicker repair. Until the wall repair is complete, Verlin is hindered getting in and out. The workers did not provide the repair materials on Friday, as promised Thursday.
- Pray for wisdom, souls saved, and our ability to clear or delegate mundane work so more Christians are equipped to disciple others. The Lord has recently moved in the hearts of numerous people to start Bible studies in their spheres of influence at work. K. is one example. He regularly gets follow-up advice from Verlin while developing an outreach at the auto repair shop he owns and as he disciples his family. We pray he will also open the door for CHE in his neighborhood.
