     The past few weeks have been packed full of out outreach ministry and the Lord has been so faithful!
Last week we made some "free prayer" signs and set up in one of the town squares. Kristen and I played
worship music while the rest of the team walked around with the signs. It was great seeing the Lord work
and guide people to us. We met two girls named Daisy and  Chenal. they were handing out fliers for a 
tattoo museum and we agreed that we would take a flier if we could pray for them. They laughed and agreed.
Their transparency was encouraging and they were so thankful for the prayers. They said they had self worth 
issues and need prayer for more selfisteam. We were able to tell them about their worth in Jesus and how
beautiful they are and just spoke purpose into their lives. It seamed as if they had never heard someone call
them beautiful in a genuine way. It was a great time and it truly blessed us all.
   
   








  Our team was asked to lead campus wide worship for the base. I have played music for many years but never lead a worship team in front of more than a handful of people. Actually it always has been in a living room, so you can imagine what it was like. After spending some time practicing, the nervousness went away and we were ready to lead. The time was amazing, seeing 150 (give or take) inter into the presence of the Lord and get ministered to by the heart of the Lord was like nothing else. We have been asked to lead 2 other campus worship times and we are very excited and expectant on what the Lord will do with those times. 


        
      



      During soccer outreach this week we had the chance to pray for a young muslim boy who had a knee injury. 
Some members on our team got to talk to him about Jesus and how we know him as our healer and savior. He
said he was muslim and wasn't sure if we should pray for him, but after a few short minutes he agreed. The Lord
was faithful and healed his knee and he began to thank Jesus for what he had done for him! Seeing the Lord
encounter people in such ways as this is priceless and I love it! We had a chance to talk to a couple girls about Jesus and tell them stories from the bible about Him. They told us they had heard these stories but were always told they were just made up. They asked how we talk to the Lord and hear his voice. It was a great time of witnessing and seeds were planted!


   


















       This is the Dam Square where we do a lot of outreach to the locals and tourists. 10 years ago all of the bricks were replaced. Some long term missionaries were able to write out tons of verses and placed them in plastic bags. The Lord allowed them to meet one of the workers who was a new believer in Jesus. He agreed to place the bible verses under neath the bricks as they were laying them. The word of the Lord is rooted underneath the main city square! Come on! so awesome!
