The Works of His Mighty Hand

The work of the hands of our Almighty God is awesome.  He is good, He is faithful and His love endures for ever.   This is His work and we give Him all the Glory.

Julie and Rebecca with Pastor Jackie
Whilst in Vinga Community Hall Pastor Jackie & I were emotional when we saw T(formerly of Mocrea Mental Hospital) along with us as part of the Team serving sweets and oranges.  Then there was Julie and Rebecca - on the stage taking part in sketches and singing -  having had the most horrendous life prior to entering the Osana Children's Home in January.  Pastor Jackie had rescued them from the street and placed them with Cerbu and his family.   They are not only safe, but full of joy because they gave their lives to Jesus at Easter.  Now they not only have hope, they are so....o happy and content.

Then last night we see the  miracle in Yasmina, expected to be a cabbage all her life - now despite many visits to hospitals she is a miracle girl who lives life to the full.  She is enrolled in a Christian Gradinita and Metanoie's Sunday School while her mother studies and makes new friends at Church.  Her mother is continually giving thanks and has made a commitment to be baptised.  Vinga Youth Group is growing and many of the children have been baptized.

This is your work Oh Lord and we give you all the glory.  Thank you for your Grace and Mercy which is renewed every day.
