Dear Friends,
We are well underway with the construction of two new works. The team from the U.S. who is helping us arrived on Monday. Actually, it is we who are helping them with the physical labor part. They are quite good at carpentry and painting. We should have two buildings completed by the 20th of October. We expect to have inauguration meetings at both of these new locations by the end of October. I am especially excited about our own leaders who are heading up the ministerial aspect of these works. We have two couples who go to great personal expense to get the gospel out to these communities.
We are still reaping the benefits from the evangelistic marriage seminar we held in May. Last month we met with two separate groups of couples who had gone to the seminar and showed interest in learning more about how God's word relates to daily living. We also strive to point them to Christ for their soul's eternal salvation. Two ladies have trusted in Jesus as their Savior and we are having discipleship classes with them on a weekly basis. I trust that we will be baptizing them very shortly.
All of the family are still doing very well. No one has been sick and we are thankful to God for this. We were involved in a couple of car accidents within an eleven day period, but no one was seriously injured. Another driver nearly totaled the car that Charlene was driving, but the only injuries were sore muscles. Poor little Jessie, though, was in the car with me when I had a fender bender and with her mom when she had the more major collision. She is a little "traumatized" in traffic, but she's tough and I'm sure she'll get over it. We are thankful that God protected everyone and that the vehicles are being repaired at very little cost.
Please continue to remember us in your prayers.
In Christ's love,
Bobby, Charlene, Jessie and Brennen Wacaser
