After Inaugural and the 1st Youth Event

We have had two good worship services since inaugural. The first service (after inaugural) we had 24 in attendance. This was a little disappointing after filling our auditorium the week before but expected. I asked one visitor, Ida, how she found out about the church. Ida replied that she had been praying for a church near her home to be able to attend but she didn't know that God would open one for her!!! For Easter Sunday, our second service after inaugural, we had 47 people. Ida came back with a poem about our church and all of our kids from Amaralina came with their families.

The second youth event went well too. There were 10 of us hunting Easter eggs and putting the parts of the verses together that were hidden inside the plastic eggs. Matt played the main role in Randy's drama skit about being stuck in the box of sin and that only Jesus can pull us out, making us new creations and giving us new life in him. We are still praying that they will take these messages to heart and want to be baptized soon.
