Planting Season

The Bible School is continuing to go well here in Nasir, even though it's very difficult for the students to always make it to class each day. It's the time of the year when they work hard cultivating to provide food for their families, but they remain faithful to learn new stories each day.

I recently taught them the story of when Paul told the believers in Derbe that they would face many difficulties following Christ. It is difficult to serve the Lord here in these conditions, but its no problem.  Two weeks ago, I put my foot into my gum boot and I felt a terrible sting on my toes. When I took out my foot, I had been stung by a scorpion.  I was sick for two days because of this.  During this time of the year we have lots of rain and the scorpions are always looking for dry places to hide so many of us are facing this same problem.

Thank you for praying for us as we serve the Lord here in Sudan.
