The rain, a welcome sight for those in Texas and Oklahoma but not for Bogota, Colombia. The rain is beginning to cause extensive damage, flooding and over six hundred families have been evacuated from their homes due to the danger of mud slides.
Bruce and Bro. Aya left this morning 9 am to visit the brethren in Nociama, where homes on those mountains have been destroyed in previous mud slides. They drove approximately an hour and a half, they will do visitation, then there is a discipleship time around 2 pm. Once the discipleship time is complete then they drive back to Bogota, to the church to have another discipleship session. In all they should be home around 9 or 10 pm. A long day when you compound the weather and traffic.
I am spending the day with Monica, who is a joy in Christ and an avid soul winner. Just this morning when she returned on a taxi with another friend, whom by God´s grace, she won to the Lord months back, the taxi driver filled out a card to take the correspondence courses and infact took his course home today! It is a joy to see that all the Aya family have a desire to reach souls for Christ and how sweet to meet those whose lives they are impacting.
I am also learning about culture and writing down vocabulary words. Although, I speak Spanish our words vary. I look forward to teaching our older children so they can get a jump start. I am looking forward to the time when we move to Colombia and have a part in God´s tremendous plan and vision here. I am so thankful that we can already have a part right now with the Gospel ad due to come out in this Sunday´s paper (El Tiempo). Although the ad was over the amount a precious Sister in Christ invested it is worth every penny, yes on the average, based on the circulation it is really only going to cost a little over a penny per possible soul reached!!! Just like any investestment: the more you invest the greater the joy you have when you hear about God´s power of multiplication. (Thank you Sister for your love for souls. We are glad to have had the opportunity to be a part of our Saviour´s vision with you.)
Keep us all in your prayers as we look forward to a day with the Ayas tomorrow and that our Lord grant us devine appointments, even in our time of relaxation (for we do the works of our Heavenly Father, through Christ Jesus our Lord).
Thank you all for your prayers and love for us.
Till the next update,
The Moores to Colombia
