Welcoming New Friends...

Today was a special day as we welcomed new missionaries, Max and Julie and children Megan and Justin. They will be working with our friends, the Thomas', with the Pokomchi.

Carol brought them over today in time to attend worship. The focus in church this month is the Bible -- the authoritative Word of God which gives life to those who receive. The cell groups of the church are learning to use Bible storying to present Biblical truths. What an exciting day as members from 8 of the church's cell groups storied differnet "messages" as the sermon today! They are preparing to reach the Ch'orti', as well as their neighbors and family, with the Gospel of Christ. Missions is what it is all about...reaching others for Christ, making investments in eternity.

Heidi enjoyed highly enjoyed her company as well, though I don't know who enjoyed her the most.


Maybe the smile says it best.

Max, Julie, Megan and Justin, Welcome to the Family !
