Suriname Update – 2019-01-28

A message from the field: Sorry we have not been able to send texts all day but we have been knee-deep in clinic day since 8am this morning and everyone has been busy doing something all day! I tried and tried to send a simple text all day but it was impossible. We worked till 4pm Suriname time. We were supposed to to finish at 3pm but we had more people than what we could see so we worked till 4pm and had to cut it off. We saw at least 96 people today for clinic and expect to see about 100 tomorrow. We have not fully assessed the cards coming in but we know that at least 5 people accepted the Lord today and the spiritual care team prayed with lots of folks about a wide variety of issues. The town officials and the key layman of the Nazarene Church were very impressed with the way we went about providing the care not just to go through the motions and get people to come to our church but because we really cared. It is God shining through us with your prayer support for strength!! I wont lie, the heat is rough and our feet are tired. Our bodies are feeling it in varied ways depending on our age, but God is faithful and giving us fruit for our labor. Also, we had 33 people at the Jesus film last night. Most everyone prayed the prayer of salvation and one specifically raised their hand saying that they had never prayed the prayer of salvation before.
