WE GOT IN LAST NIGHT...TRAINING THIS MORNING!

What an early blessing Harriet (2nd from left, front row) and I had today!  We met with 6 ladies (5 Christians, 1 Buddhist) from an insurance company along with our translator, FangFang (far left, front row).

Our gift to them was a training on how to overcome worry and unrest...their gift    to us was their time, lots of coffee & food and especially their trust in opening their hearts to ask so many questions!

Our lovely hostess, the manager of the agency was also the lucky recipient of the first of our prayer shawls (gifted once again by the KnitWits (knitting a witness for Christ!).

The questions came..."I don't know what heaven is like..."; "you said that God wants to give peace & joy, but I was taught that He only wants our hearts broken and we must cry like Jeremiah..."; "I was also taught that only a certain number of people may be saved and that in the last judgement, some of us who received Christ may be lost after all"...  How blessed to be with Harriet and to have 2 minds and Harriet armed with her Bible to be looking up passages of help!  Once again...the need for biblical training is underscored!

Tomorrow we will train in a room at a Christian Bookstore!  Stay tuned :)
