"Tie your shoes and pray for the Hughes" |
Dear
Friends,
We now
have a pulpit for our meeting place!
Early in January David sketched out a design and later picked up the
necessary lumber. One day we constructed
it (and a white board stand) and another day sanded both items. David then applied the stain and lacquer and
we are now using it.
This
past month I designed a sign for our church.
I should be able to pick up the vinyl banner this Wednesday. We will hang it on the outside wall of our
rental. There is much the sign can’t do,
but it can help people find where we meet as well as make our ministry’s
presence known to the many people who go by the building.
We
have had two English classes so far. The
first week nine individuals showed up, and the next- twenty! Nearly everyone who has come is a beginner,
making it easier for the lessons to benefit the majority. We are discussing how to help those who are
more advanced. Since we don’t want to
simply influence their intellectual lives, would you take a moment now to pray
for opportunities to spiritually influence them for our Savior?
In
about a month and a half a friend who is also endorsed by All Points will be
joining our team in Soroca. (Here is a
link with her information.) For now, we
ask prayer for Sarah as she makes final preparations, and for our team here as
we seek to help her through the transition.
In His
service,
Jacob
and Viola Hughes
For
