We are so proud of our boys!

For the last few months, Daniel has been talking a lot about wanting to win his Mexican friends to the Lord. He asks prayer for them in our church services and has told us often how he really wants to see them get saved. On several occasions he has witnessed to them but none have accepted the Lord. Those times he comes home pretty disappointed, but we always encourage him to keep on praying for them.

Well, today after they finished their school work, Daniel and Andrew went outside to play with the neighborhood boys. They were having a blast out there playing "futbol" (soccer). I could hear them every once in a while yelling "GOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLL!!!!" I could tell they were being good. Well, things got quieter and they were still outside. They were riding bikes, etc. When the boys came inside they were very excited. Daniel's face was just glowing as he told us, "I won my first soul to the Lord!" Andrew had been there listening in as well. He told us all about how it happened. He witnessed to two friends, but only one got saved. It sounds like he did a thorough job. We are SO proud of our boys! I can't tell you how much it blesses me to know that they want to serve the Lord and have a concern for others.

Thanks for stopping by. Hope you have a great weekend!
