Village Evangelism

I stopped the "Jesus" film and stood up:
"I'm sorry, but we can't carry on like this. There are too many people"

Hundreds of people were pressing in to try and see the film, and the small children at the front were in danger of getting trampled.
"If those at the back can move back a few feet, then those at the front can sit down, and everyone can see."
A few minutes of shuffling later, and we restarted the film. Afterwards, the crowd sat quietly as Pierre and I explained the good news of life, forgiveness, and freedom in Christ.

We have just got back from four more days of evangelism (see my itinerary here). Thank you for your prayers. Things continue to go well. We are having a continued increase in interest everywhere we go, and a sense of the presence of the Holy Spirit. A few people are expressing strong interest, and one or two saying they want to follow Christ. Please pray that they may get hold of the truth and life God is offering in Jesus.

Thank you
