The Lord has been answering our prayers in Abbotsford, in His way and in His timing.

This morning, we enjoyed S.S. 7:11, “Come, my beloved, let us go forth into the fields; / Let us lodge in the villages” and Hymn #206, “O I am my Beloved’s, And my Beloved’s mine … I stand upon His merit; I know no other stand.” For various reasons, our natural strength has begun to run low, and today we acknowledged that we have no qualification to be here in the fields of Abbotsford other than the Lord’s merit. Praise the Lord that we are His, and He is ours!

On Monday night, what with all the changes in weather and corresponding changes in schedule, we felt it necessary to keep continuous watchful prayer from 7-10pm. Several of us prayed with our hospitality and the time was very enjoyable. After our night of prayer, our team was finally physically reunited (following several snow days of Skype coordination), and we have since been able to resume our door-knocking activities. Any difficulties we’ve come across have made our conversations with open ones even more precious.

Today, after distributing tracts and Bible seminar invitations at local businesses, we met seven new ones at our Bible seminar! We are very encouraged by their seeking hearts. Two of them, contact C and contact D, are coming to the gospel meeting this Saturday! Thank You Lord! Please pray for Him to bind any last-minute distractions/ cancellations.
