Dear praying friends,
God has given us a great start to this new year. While we still face some restrictions due to COVID, God continues to bless, and we continue to follow him however and wherever he leads us!
In our last newsletter, we ask you to pray for a young man named César for salvation. His mother and siblings are members of our church, but he doesn't come. I spent an hour on evening sharing the Gospel with him, but he didn't get saved at that time.
He spent the next couple of weeks reading the book of John and asking his mother questions. Well, one evening, the Lord did an amazing work, and he got saved in his room.
I had the privilege of baptizing him and now begins the discipleship process. Please pray God will continue to work in his life and César will grow into the man God wants him to be!
We also were able to be a blessing to another missionary about an hour from us and help supply them with some bible and tracts for their new church plant! They called and asked us if we had any extra bibles we could spare. However, we didn't have many to spare, but we were able to give them what we could, and now they have some material to get the Gospel to another small town with no gospel witness!
A lady has been coming to our church since very early on, but her husband has never come. He had caught COVID, and the family was terrified for his life. Before he had gotten sick, I had the opportunity to share the Gospel with him, and he was very kind to me. After he had been ill, I came to his house and prayed with him, and his family and God began to do physical and spiritual work in him. He is recovering quickly and has said he will be coming to a service with us as soon as possible. I would like to believe it was because we were the only ones who were brave enough to go and visit him in his sickened condition. The Catholics were too afraid due to covid to go and see them. Please pray for Saúl that God will work on his heart about salvation, and he will get saved and keep his promise to come to church with us!
Thank you all so much for your faithful prayers and support. We pray for you all often and know that without your help, we could not do what we are doing. Like someone once said, "Either you are the one going down the well, or you are the one holding the ropes for someone else, but either way, you both are going to have scares."
When we get to heaven, we will see the depth and significance of those scares we have! All that we do here is fruit to your account as well!
Again thank you, thank you, thank you! We love and appreciate every single one of our partners. God bless you all!
Unto the Furtherance of the Gospel,
The Granger family
