We have been having a Bible study for workers at the China Taiwan restaurant. It starts when they are most awake and off from work around midnight. This past Tuesday we showed a movie at their dormitory, The Passion. It ended at 2:40 am, but thirteen waiters and cooks stayed till the end. It is impossible to watch this movie without thinking about what Jesus did and why he did it. Our hope is that more will take seriously his sacrifice and receive the forgiveness that Jesus is offering freely.
Thank you all for your prayers for the PORMISSOES meeting last month. It was a great blessing. We sat and studied God's Word together for the entire day. There were some differences of understanding on some passages, but we worked our way through them. In the end, everyone was saying how the meeting was edifying. It started around 9:30 am. We broke for lunch at 1 pm. We started back around 2:30 and went until 6 pm. They wanted to keep going, but the SEARA class started at 7 pm. If every meeting could be as encouraging as this one, we would be in heaven. My goal with these meetings is to teach the church workers throughout the state how to listen to someone who has a different belief about God's Word, try to understand their logic, their thought process...
