Bonjour!

The last couple days, Peter Chamberlain, a Rock of Ages Prison missionary, and a friend of his, Keith Brock, have been here from the States. They had the opportunity to present the gospel in several different public schools here in our area. They were in schools on Sunday and Monday mornings. They went to three schools today; Joe went with them today. They gave a New Testament to each student and teacher. There were 500 students at the first school, 300 at the second school, and 200 at the third school. A gospel message was preached. Many raised their hands saying that they had accepted Christ as Savior.

We had Brother Chamberlain, Brother Brock, Nixon (a Ghanaian man that works with Rock of Ages), and the Davises over for lunch. I was in the kitchen most of the morning. Both of the boys took naps this morning.

The electricians came this afternoon and worked on running the wire from the guard shack to the garage. (The generator is in the guard shack.) They will come back tomorrow and hook everything up.

Gilbert kept going outside with Joe to see what those men were doing. When they used the drill, he came right back inside. That was too loud for him.

The meeting concerning the land for the church did not take place yesterday. They are trying to reschedule the meeting for Thursday. Please continue to pray about that.

A demain,

Joe, Laura, Gilbert, and Danny
