This is my first attempt at using the new website so…I hope this goes well. Just wanted to write a brief note and share a few pics. We hosted a New Year’s party for the youth of Emmanuel Christian Centre. They came at 6pm and left at 6am! It was great…food, games, dancing, and fireworks! Just before we left for the fireworks downtown, we all shared a memory from 2009 and a desire for 2010. It was interesting to hear some of the things on their hearts.
Two weeks ago our cell group had a mexican night and just general fellowship time. We are so pleased to sense a deepening spirit amongst our cell group. Please pray for two ladies who both have relationship with a family in our cell group that they will sense their need for Jesus.
For several months now, I’ve been working at the after-school program of Oaza especially helping with a music class and setting up computers. For a Christmas program, the children played Jingle Bells on handchimes which were donated by United Church of South Vienna (OH). Since
then, we’ve been working on recorders. Have you ever sat in a room of children all trying to learn to blow into recorders??!!
As I write, our thoughts are very much with our missionary colleagues and FM church family in Haiti. Please pray…nothing else we can ask that will have greater impact than your prayers. If God leads you to help in other ways, online giving for Haiti is now available at: http://www.fmwm.org/give/help_haiti_heal.php
Thankful for your prayers and support! Blessings…paula
