Who's your shelter in the time of storm?

Yesterday was very busy. Jeff has much more stamina than I do, I kept up with him all day yesterday, but today I am exhausted. It is very hot which really takes a lot out of you. So instead, I opted to stay at the house today and work on getting Bibles ready. We have been marking the Bibles with the plan of salvation, examples of conversions and other important things before we give them out. We met a man yesterday from Pennsylvania. He has lived in Caicos for about 12 years, which I can’t figure out why because he had nothing good to say about the country and believes whites should have nothing to do with blacks. Very sad and I think he also was a Sadducee, he didn’t think much of Christianity, not any hope in the resurrection. That is “Sad You See.” Jeff met a lady who is actually from Caicos today and we are going to go to her house tonight at 6:00 to study the Bible. Did you ever wonder where the Ethiopian eunuch got the scroll of Isaiah? One plants, another waters, and God adds the increase. Please pray that the Bibles we are giving out plant a seed in good soil. Saturday we are going to Haiti for 4 days to check on Mme Remi and Mme Albert. They are both Christian sisters and widows.

Today I took several Bibles Carol prepared and went to a marina. I met several people from the country of Ghana, English was there first language and they invited me to share with them. Most had the same struggle , lust for women. It is very common here for men and women to have multiple partners. They recognize the sin and it’s consequence but choose not to leave it. I walked about 6 miles today. There are many benefits to walking it‘s good for you, it humbles you, it slows you down and forces you to stop, rest and talk to people. On my way home from the marina a man stopped that had gone by me twice before and offered me a ride. We had a great talk he was tired of organized religion and was looking for examples of the truth. He works in construction and I offered to work and ride with him tomorrow. When he let me out he thanked me for the Bible and ask me to call him tonight, he said he would like his wife to meet mine. Please continue to pray that God will move before us and we will follow His lead. In Christ Jeff
