Worship night with the Iris kids

Last night we went to have a worship time with the kids.  It was so great!  Nelson, our Nepali brother, led them in some worship songs with dancing and lots of drumming, as most of the kids wanted a turn on the hand drum.  They started to spontaneously share some testimonies and one girl shared how when she was on the school bus that morning she realized that she forgotten to full up her pen with ink before she went to school.  So, she prayed and asked God to help her and when she got to school she started writing with her pen and there was ink in it and it lasted all day!  The teachers here are really strict and so she was worried that she would get in trouble, but Jesus had something else in mind!  Hallelujah!

After some songs the kids all went into a time of spontaneous prayer and were intensely praying for each other.  At the end of this precious time one of the older boys said that while we were praying God gave him a song to sing.  He stood up right away and sang a beautiful song about how there is darkness in the world, but that God has provided a huge light for us and how for those that are feeling sick or in pain that there's healing in Jesus.  It was so beautiful.   I told him afterwards that Jesus was going to give him more songs, he just nodded his head, Nepali style, and had a big grin on his face, what a precious boy!

I love the kids at the Iris home so much, it's so great living just down the street from them.  Speaking of home, I want to get Kyle to take some shots of our house and neighborhood to show you all. Oh and some of the kids home too.  Kyle's on outreach now, but we'll do this soon.  Stay tuned.....
