How Beautiful Are The Feet That Bring Good News...

My 1st Volunteer Team of the year is finally here...from Slidell, Louisiana. This sweet team of 5 people came to teach our Colombian Christian Leaders. Slidell has committed to form a Strategic Partnership with the Refuge Team. This means they aren't just coming to knock on doors and do mass evangelism...they actually want to partner and learn the strategy that actually works with our people group...and commit to return several times a year! Since desplasados are "oral learners", the team learned how to teach through using Chronological Bible Stories...and they did a great job! We had 23 people participating in our 1st Leadership Training Session. Please keep us in prayer as we have 2 more days of training our leadership teams & sports teams! We know the Lord has a lot in store for this weekend!

A Sweet Story.....We have been discipling a group of desplasados who live in the middle of NOWHERE! Getting out there each week by CAR is a challenge! Today, we had 4 women who felt like the Lord wanted them to come to the Leadership Session...so they walked for 2 hours to get to where we had the meeting! Two of these ladies are in their 60s and 70s...but they came! How precious is the heart that seeks the Lord.
