I want to write and just say how wonderful it is to be here and to see the hand of our Creator taking care of us at every step. God has really connected us in a special new way with Pastor Andrew and his wife Angella. We are really 'embracing' each other and this year I know that so much good will come out of that.
Emmanuel is doing really well, He calls Brittany 'ninny' and tells me to 'sit down' while pointing at a chair. The other kids too are doing well, they missed us and us them.
The streetguys 'God's favorites' are also doing well. Although two of them left us (one stole a few things then, a few days later in a town 20 miles away, Pastor Andrew just 'happened' to see him and forgive him and tell him that we love and believe in him)
Three of our pastors began to go out to the provinces. The purpose, to encourage the pastors there, set up future training, and start a program to give them seed to do farming.
In one village a group of pastors met. One stopped our pastors with a shocked look in his eyes "what did you say your name was?" Five years before, in a dream, the Lord had told this old pastor that 'Iris ministries' was going to come and they would bring with them blessing for the whole nation. Five years ago Iris ministries was not in Sierra Leone or even Western Africa, and this old pastor never could have accessed the internet or heard of Iris before that. He left and came back with an old notebook with the dream written in it and showed our pastors.
Its encouraging to know that God has us on the right path.
We will begin in two weeks to send a team to bring our Bible school to help train and support these pastors. One called the next week and said "I was about to give up being a pastor and move, but since you came I know that I will stay and do the work of God"
I am beginning to do a little bit of buisness, selling small computer memory. Pray that through this and other means we will be able to finance this work without the help of people internationally.
We love you all and miss you all. We had such a wonderful two months in the States. It was a blessing and everyone here says that my 'belly big' ha ha
Love
Isaac
