church services

like we've mentioned before, we've been having regular church services at the Village every sunday... this is a great way to build an acts 2 community around the migrants... its pretty much like our church services, where if you been to one, they're pretty family oriented, they get to share testimonies, what has been doing in their lives, and also their struggles and prayer requests for the rest of the church to pray. here are some pictures from the last two services...




This is very exciting because it shows how many of them truly have the hunger and that desire for God, during this services we share nothing but the word of God, .. only on certain occassions when we get a load of food in the previous days, then we make bags of food and hand it to them. but this doesnt happen all the time. We also have an offering time that ussualy barely helps to cover for the gas of the generator for that day, the reason why we do this is because we dont want them to get used to just recieve, they need to know the joy of giving also, even in need, and not also monetary sharing, but other needs too, its pretty amazing to see them pray for each other.
