Latest Update!

I always said I would never ride a motorcycle....well never say never.

After our long ride to church the previous weekend, we were invited to another tribal church in the village of Di Linh.  Guess what, it was farther than the last place.  We did, however, leave on Saturday (not in the wee hours of the morning) and stayed at a hotel nearby the church.  Sunday morning we were picked up at 6 am on bikes, and taken to have a breakfast of Pho soup.  From there we were on our way to church.  Church started at 7:30 am.  We met the Pastor his wife and several of their 8 children.

Don preached on the importance of knowing the Word in your heart.
Several came up for prayer afterwards.  The pastor and his wife invited us to please come back.  This church has a very strong youth attendance and are on fire for the Kingdom of God.

This 20 X 20 room was filled to the brim with worshippers.  They stand or kneel to praise and worship God, and sit gathered on the floor to listen to the Word.

In these two pictures they are saying "Hello America and God Bless You".

The youth seem to take the front and center seats.  They loved Don's preaching and were very responsive to the Word.  This congregation is mostly of the Ko Ho Tribe.  They have had 3 or 4 generations serving God.  Many have gone through trials and persecution for their faith but are still standing strong.  

With Pastors of the church

The Pastors are pillars of faith having gone through the war and persecution. This mom remembers being the only believer in her family, witnessing to everyone whether in their home or on the street. One time while nursing her child, she was evangelizing on the street and was thrown in jail.  Through her prayers, her husband, and all 8 children and their spouses, are serving the Lord.  Now she babysits some of her grandchildren continuing to teach them about the Lord and serves as a leader in their two church.

Pastors of the church.  This is a remarkable lady!
