Thanks for visiting and praying for our latest Distribution Trip.
Day 1 - Travel day, 18 hr. flight. And I can't sleep on a plane.
Day 2 - My day began early. A 6 AM border crossing. In fact, I was crossing the border about the time most of you were in a Prayer Meeting service. I felt the prayers of God's people and had a great morning. Our team made 2 border crossings this morning without any stops. We stopped at lunch time and made another crossing tonight. We were 100% successful. This first day was great. We got over 1000 Bibles across the border on day 1, that's a great start!
Day 3 - What a difference a day makes. We were told that Friday would be a tough day at the borders. I was part of a scout team to check out another border crossing area a few miles north of the normal crossing area. My team left early, about 6:30 AM. This border was also very tight. I, along with 3 other team members were all stopped. This did leave an opening for our 4th team member who got through with no problems. (That's because the border police were busy with me) We returned to the original border later in the afternoon. They stopped all of us, but allowed us to take in about half our load of Bibles. They just said we had too many. I am thankful for what Bibles we did get into the country today. Tomorrow will be an unloading and packing day.
Day 4 - I had pig brain & soy bean soup today, really! I'm not saying how much, but I did try it. (suffering for Jesus) Much of today was a packing day, getting ready for next week. I did spend a couple of hours in confiscation this afternoon, paying fines and retrieving a few cases of Bibles that had been taken from us. You meet a lot of interesting people there!
Day 5 - The Lord's Day. I had service this morning with a small congregation of about 40 people. The Lord met with us and the fellowship was great. We sang together and I sang and played the piano. There were at least 4 different languages spoken, but I was the only one speaking Southern American. The preaching took 3 times longer because of all the interpreting! After the services I found a KFC and had fried chicken for Sunday dinner. Just like home - almost. At least they told me it was chicken. I pray God will bless you in your services today. I'm done - remember I'm 13 hours ahead in the future.
Day 6 - The early morning border crossings have been the most successful. We had at least 10 trips across the border this morning with no stops. Probably got in at least 1500 Bibles this morning. The afternoon again was not as good. I guess the devil sleeps in late over here. I was stopped this evening, but the border police allowed me to keep 1/2 my shipment. That is very good. In fact, he is the same border policeman that stopped me on Friday night. It seemed like he took some of my Bibles just to look like he is doing his job. Whatever the reasons, I know God is in control. Please continue to pray!
Day 7 - This was the day of greatest concern - and great victory. This whole day was just for transporting children's Bibles and children's Sunday School packets. Our entire team made numerous trips across the border without ONE STOP! We serve a Great God! We were able to get hundreds of packets into the country. I have to tell about one humorous event. On the last border crossing late in the evening, I was the last one off the train. I was really loaded with children's Bibles. One wheel on my suitcase broke while exiting the train. I manged to get it to the customs building without much trouble. I'm also carrying a heavy shoulder bag. While trying to sneak by the border police, the other wheel broke. I was stranded right in front of the border policeman, trying to drag my heavy suitcase. He just watched me and laughed. I guess it was too funny a site to stop me! God works in ways past my understanding.
Day 8 - Always new things happening here. I was asked to help unload a shipment of Bibles early this morning for another organization. I said yes, and helped unload over 200 cases of Bibles and a hardback Pastor's Helper Commentary. I was really interested in the Pastor's book and opened one of the cases. Of course it was all foreign except for the beginning credits in English. Guess What? Most of it was translation of Oliver B. Greene's Commentary. It really is a small world. The rest of the day was spent in border crossings with the children's material. I'm glad to report that we worked til about 8 o'clock without one single stop. God showed us great favor today - I am thankful and tired.
Day 9 - Today began with 8AM border crossings. We are getting the rest of the children's Sunday School packets in, a suitcase at a time. The entire team had 100% success today and we have got hundreds of packets across the border. I pray the the Word of God will find a resting place in the hearts of these boys and girls. Thank you for your prayers and support!
