It's been about a month since we wrote, so we wanted to catch everybody up. Right now there's really just one thing that we hope you can be praying about. During this whole semester we've been asking the Father to give us opportunities to reach out to Dale's students, love them, build some relationships, and tell them about Jesus. Over the last several weeks, a few students have stuck out because of things they've said in class or their unique attitudes. We weren't sure what we wanted to do with these students, but we finally decided that since we were asking the Father to help us find these students and since He was answering those requests, then we should work hard to take advantage of these opportunities.
For most of these students, this is their first year at this college and they're really busy with classes and mandatory study halls all during the week. As a result, we decided to start a new meeting on Saturday nights just for these students who don't (yet) believe. One of our closest sisters here, Ya Li, helps us a lot. Each week about 10 students come, many of them hearing about the Father and Son for the first time in their lives. Some people aren't very interested and don't come back, but some do. Either way, more and more people are coming into contact with the Truth and we're thankful that we are able to have a small part in that.
Please be praying that more students will come to hear the Good News, that their hearts will be open, and that they will come to believe and obey the Truth.
We appreciate and love you all. If there are any ways that we can be praying for you, please let us know. We've put up lots of new pictures (mostly from the summer) over at Flickr. Go check them out if you're interested.
