Bonjour,

We had a good day at church today. This morning, Romeo, who usually
helps with the children's services, was gone to the village for his
brother's wedding. So, I had the 5 yrs. and under class for both
services. Sarah taught the 6-12 yr. olds for both services. Joe had
ten in his Sunday school class.

Matt preached on Adoption this morning. Several of the men had
questions after the service. They had been saved and thought that they
needed to be adopted now. Matt explained that when you get saved, you
are adopted into God's family. They had never heard that term before.

Four of the girls in Joe's Sunday school class got saved after the
morning service. Sarah dealt with them.

We took the Litson girls and went on home. The kids enjoyed playing for
about an hour. As soon as Matt and Sarah got home, the girls went
home. We had lunch and then took naps.

Joe found out this afternoon that he was preaching at the Anyama church
tonight. So, he worked on his sermon this afternoon. The service went
well tonight too.

A demain,

Joe, Laura, Gilbert, and Danny
