Another Project we were thankful to help in!
Making the the Gospel presentation's used by the pastors as they go out into the field on their weekly travels:
New oncoming pastors receive these tracks and it helps them to share the message. I am so impressed by this tool...it is so helpful! Simple and yet it tells the message of God's desire to have relationship with his creation!
First Jerry prints them out sheet by sheet...30 pages ~
First Jerry prints them out sheet by sheet...30 pages ~
He lays them out to dry...remember how humid it is here? Well a fan is blowing on the pages for at least a full 24 hrs allowing it time to be completely dry...otherwise the pages curl.
Then we cut the pages.
Punches holes into the corners.
Then we have to laminate them sheet by sheet ~ Carefully...so there is no wrinkles or crease.
Then we cut them with the laminate covering on them.
Next Jerry & Nick rounded the corners.
Ah...the end results and finishing work... stacking them in order!
What a wonderful thought to know these are going out to the highway's and byway's of Battambang and surrounding districts! Praise the Lord!
Last ~ put the ring into it.
And there you have it...the story of God's grace extended each and everyone of us!
As the pastors out in the field, sit facing the people in the villages, showing each picture - on the back side of it, it tell the story of that immediate page...very well thought out & prepared.
Wilma and Jerry tell us the Lord showed them this from the very beginning - divinely given to them - and this tool has been used all these 12 years now and it has been so' successful in giving the people a good understanding . God has blessed it and draws people to it and they are able to relate to the story. Remember a lot of people might not have a middle school education and their comprehension is simplified.
But where the Spirit of the Lord is and His Word is being spoken...He opens the hearts!
On the last page is the Salvation Prayer ~
Nick & I have had a wonderful & blessed time here with our dear friends...amazed what the Lord has done through Jerry & Wilma both! They have touched so many people by their witness and love!
We are both humbled by all we have experienced and we pray God's continued grace and wisdom and blessings upon Jerry & Wilma and Shari the children's Director and the children and staff at the orphanage! We pray blessings upon the pastors/children's pastors as they continue to preach the Good News on their daily travels into the countryside!
Wow - dedicated and committed - we love you Jerry & Wilma and we thank you both for your hospitality and friendship and putting up with us these 3 weeks....veggies and all...ha!
YOU are an inspiration to all of us! God Bless You both and
Happy Anniversary in September! So glad you will take a little time to pull away and have some R&R!
Again ~ We love and Appreciate you!
Wow, that was all so very informative about 21st century missional work in Cambodia! Thank you, Ellen for keeping us all so informed by your comments and many pictures! All the time also telling us all the good news of the Holy Gospel! Amazing how the Holy Spirit uses ordinary people to advance good in the world! Jerry and Wilma and others under their lead, truly are blessed in giving their talents, hard work and unselfish love for the good of the people in Cambodia! May God continue to bless them and keep them as they serve God in Battambang! Xo,Indomeisje
