Santa Rosa, CA—Gospel Trip, Days 10-11
Thank you very much for all your prayers and for cooperating with the Lord’s move on earth and in the North Bay! The saints here are so thankful that the Lord is faithful to bring the seeking ones to us. Last night was the weekly study hall at the Sonoma House for all the new students. One of the students we met at SRJC last week and had a good time studying the book of Ephesians. He was so grateful to be with us and he said “thank you” at least five times to the host family for opening their home. He also had a Bible study appointment today with a brother to read Ephesians 3; afterwards he was so joyful!
Yesterday at SRJC, one of the trainee brothers brought his ukulele and the saints had a singing time. A student contact from last semester joined them and was very touched by the hymns. This student’s brother studies at SSU was also met by the trainees, and he is looking for Christian friends to pursue the Lord together! We are praying that these two siblings and even their whole family can be connected with the saints.
With many positive responses, we met two very soft and seeking students who called on the Lord’s name, prayed and received the Lord. One of them in today’s appointment realized for the first time that God sacrificed Himself to save us. While he was praying with us, he told the Lord he wanted to know Him more and that he loved the Lord. The other girl from SSU spent her lunch time with us to read through the Mystery of Human Life. She told us her being was warmed up by the word and calling on the Lord’s name. Tomorrow there will be a club fair in SSU. Please pray that many students will be attracted by the Lord and His Word and that the core students can be released from their schedules to function at this event.
