Hello USA! Class #8


The Lord surely works in mysterious ways!

Today's lesson was to be the eighth and final lesson of the introductory series. But attendance today was very poor. However, Pastor Ich was there to visit and a member of the Karen community who speaks excellent English was there also. Pastor Gie Dor came in a bit later after his driving lesson.

So we had a great planning session. Pastor Ich and Pastor Gie Dor will meet on Saturday to help refocus the program. A new day and/or time may come out of the meeting. I stressed that the community's needs were the most important and a program could be made to fit any situation. We will go on 'summer vacation' while this planning is being done. The middle week of September will be our target date to start a bigger and better program.

I will meet with the Board of Deacons on July 26th to explain the 'guest speaker' function of a coming program and ask for their blessing. This is stewardship in it's true meaning. Then I will meet with interested members of the CBC congregation on August 16th to outline the program and ask for volunteer 'guest presenters.' Everything is falling into place. Praise the Lord!

blognote: Pastor Gie Dor's youngest son, Blu Mission Ku Taw, got up from his nap and sat on my lap [again]. What a thrill to have a nearly two year old from another culture show so much trust. God is good!
