Month 1 of the race.
Completed.
Probably 3 weeks
into the race, it finally clicked that this is my life.
I get to tell people
about Jesus. I get to pray for people. I get to do ministry, however that looks
like!
Most importantly, I
get to love on people.
Because that’s what
it’s all about. Love.
If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but
have not love. I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.
And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all
mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove
mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.
If I give away all I have, and if I deliver up my
body to be burned, but have not love, I gain nothing.
1 Corinthians 13:1-3
So this month. What
did I do? What did I see?
Ministry was varied.
We did random evangelism for an hour or 2 on certain days around our house and
downtown San Salvador. We got to meet people from all walks of life.
Consistently, every
Thursday morning, we would go to a brain paralysis centre. People of all ages
that have cerebral palsy are there. We would help the workers out to lend a
helping hand. Other days we did skits and brought music to the place. We got to
show love through hugs and just sitting with them. We also prayed healing upon
them. I don’t know what healing will look like but I know that God can do the
impossible.
On Sundays, we would
go to church. We’ve had the opportunity to be involved at the youth services.
To share with the a skit or a sermon that God has placed on our heart or a song
or a testimony.
On our off days,
we’ve been blessed to go to the beach, see some ruins, and even a volcano
crater!
Please continue to
pray for El Salvador. Pray for the people we have encountered that Christ would
continue to move in their hearts. Pray for healing for the people in the brain
paralysis centre. Pray for the brothel down the street from where we lived. Pray
that God will bring restoration to that country and more people will come into
relationship with our living God.
