“that which we have seen and heard we proclaim also to you, so that you too may have fellowship with us; and indeed our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son Jesus Christ.” 1John1:3
There is something expressly unique that despite language and cultural barriers Christian enjoy together in fellowship. We have experienced that this week in coming alongside the believers here. It is a “common and deeper bond", as Matt shared tonight in his devotional, greater than any other one we have with other, more secular ones.
Probably the sweetest moment today came after a visit to Mario and Beatrice’s house. During our visit, Mica almost passed out to sickness. (These are the moments when I am ever thankful we have a doctor with us.) As we were leaving the home of these precious and faithful house parents, Mario offered to pray for Micah who was curled in a ball in her father’s arms.
While I didn't understand all of his prayer, that which I did was amazing. Most of us were in tears as Mario and Beatrice both prayed passionately for her healing. In less than an hour, Micah felt fully restored and was able to eat with us at Mizael’s. This was unexplainable, medically speaking, by J.C. Thank you Lord for displaying yourself in such a beautiful way.
These ladies worked hard digging but especially so when the music was blasting and they danced and sang along.
A prayer by two of the children before art camp.
...a very messy art camp!
Karaoke at Mizael's included both English and Spanish versions of Don’t Stop Believing!
