The sidewalk is a result of a recent humanitarian effort in Jazmin by a group of North Americans. The interesting thing is that their efforts in Jazmin generally distract from our efforts. Sadly, the attraction of free candy, a ride in a truck or simply new people is sometimes enough to distract the youth and adults in our discipleship groups from being consistent. We've felt the effect of something as simple as an English class lure youth away from studying God's Word and growing in your relationship with Him. This new sidewalk however, is a huge benefit to our ministry now that the rainy season is upon us. We slip and slide walking up the hill if it is even a little bit muddy. We are thankful for the way God chooses to bless our ministry through efforts of other groups. God is good to use all things for His glory.
Today is my Dad's 60th birthday! Happy Birthday Dad! I love you!!!
1 Corinthians 3:4-9
"For when one says, "I follow Paul," and another, "I follow Apollos," are you not mere men?
What, after all, is Apollos? And what is Paul? Only servants, through whom you came to believe—as the Lord has assigned to each his task. I planted the seed, Apollos watered it, but God made it grow. So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God, who makes things grow. The man who plants and the man who waters have one purpose, and each will be rewarded according to his own labor. For we are God's fellow workers; you are God's field, God's building."
1 Corinthians 3:4-9
