Samuel had major colon surgery
on Saturday. Sunday, Monday and Tuesday were rough: pain in spite of all
the painkillers, nausea, not wanting to put anything in his mouth,
throwing up several times a day, hardly sleeping at night, etc. Each day
doctors asking if his intestine started functioning, but we had no
signs of that.
I kept telling Samuel, "It's going to get better." But he would just say, "I'm tired of all this. I want out of here."
We know that God can do anything. The question is what will He do? What will the Lord do in the lives of His people when they consecrate themselves to Him? We hope to find out. Friday, May 22 nd , the Luna congregation had an all night vigil of consecration. We went from 9 pm to 5:30 am, and over 50 people participated, from the ages of 10 to 75 years. In the prayer corner, brothers and sisters signed up for time slots so that we would have prayer without ceasing. The vigil focused on Consecrating our Lives, in Gratitude, in Unity, in Service, and in Sharing . Each part consisted of prayer, singing, Bible Reading and Reflection, and practical activities, like in Service, we washed everyone’s feet, and then everybody joined in making breakfast for the group: homemade bread, fruit, tapioca and eggs, juice, and coffee. In Sharing, we ended with a wonderful meal together in family, talking about people with whom we want to share the gospel. Spend
