SHOFAR MISSION NEWS
...And Then There Were Two
The team returned to America June 1, 2017. We enjoyed
the opportunity to minister with them, introduce them to
our friends, and show them around the city!
The first few days were a bit quiet without a text saying,
“we are on our way” or a knock at the door. We continue
digging into ministry and handling the normal day-to-day
tasks!
After the team left, we quickly realized that we need to
start reaching out to students and universities again. One of
the ways we’re trying to meet students is by distributing
WOTS outside of various campuses. We have visited two
universities so far and are using the magazine along with
new business cards to advertise the Tuesday evening Bible
Study. We continue to see new faces attend and are looking
forward to what God will do, especially as a new school
year has begun and more students are around.
Earlier this month, we returned to Cebu Doctors’ University
to drop off a letter with the activities we planned to do for
Street Level Ministries Cebu. We went back to follow up
with the University and learned we are unable to be on
campus. As I write this, we are continuing to pray and seek
God’s direction about where He wants Street Level
Ministries Cebu… and who he wants to be a part of it.
We have also started working on Creation Science Lessons
for use with elementary or high school age students. These
lessons will include material from Answers in Genesis, In
the Beginning: Compelling Evidence for Creation and the
Flood written by Walt Brown and other resources. These
lessons will be hands on, including multimedia and
experiments!
As we step further into the next chapter of ministry, we
know that the devil does not want us here and there will be
no easy road, but we are reminded of all that God has done
so far. Please pray for God’s direction, that we would take
time to seek Him asking the five W’s (who, what, when,
why, and how), and that we would find the software and
equipment we would like to use for lessons. As always
thanks for praying for us and stopping by to say hi on
Wednesday evenings!
