With the winter season upon us here in Mozambique, cooler temps shall prevail!! Hallelujah! Nice cool breezes in the day and wonderful cool evenings…now if I can just discover a way to keep all the mosquitos (moszies) away, this could be close to what Heaven is like. ;-)
If you have read this blog in the past month, you will certainly agree March was a roller coaster month. However, whatever the good news/bad news is that may come our way, we end the day knowing our God is in control – so we rest in His grace and mercy.
The center was blessed with a wonderful Easter service and continues to move forward looking upward! Several new children have become a part of our family, and a few others have been re-united with their families. God is so good!
Next week, I will be traveling up North to Beira from April 20th – April 26th, to speak at an International Women’s Conference. The theme is: The Mark of a Woman: The History of the Woman and What They Leave Behind. I am so honored to have been invited to share on this topic. While there, I will also speak at a Youth Conference. Please join me in prayer for a mighty outpouring of the Holy Spirit during this time; and, that the Lord will use me as His instrument for His Glory!
My dorm of twenty-six 15-17 year old boys is doing great! School is out for a week beginning Monday and the boys have been studying hard. They are so welcoming the break – and they deserve it. Already beginning to make plans for Children’s Day on June 1st (is like Christmas here). I will explain more about this day in upcoming blogs. My guyz have been challenged by the older dorm to a futbol (soccer) match this Saturday! I have warned them that I am not a ‘gracious loser’, and have encouraged them to get themselves organized!! It will be fun and I am making pom-poms to cheer them on!
That is it from here at this time. Please check out the prayer request list. Blessings to you and yours, thanks for taking the time to read this blog and for being a part of this ministry.
Pom Poms...that is so awesome!!! I will be cheering for your team as well...from the sidelines of course.
ReplyDeleteI'm so very proud. Every time I read this blog I tear up and feel such a joy from the holy spirit and an outpouring of what is going on there...much fruther away than I can imagine a travel to be but still feeling so close to home. Thank you for doing this work, and keeping us included in this amazing journey of your life. Those babies will FOREVER remember the graciousness of God and the sweet spirit that you carry.
You are awesome, Sharon!! Sounds like the Lord is doing so much. Can't wait to hear all about the Women's Conference. Will you be visiting Calli in Dondo? Praying for you-- that the Lord would provide.
