"God is faithful, by whom you were called into the fellowship of his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord." I Corinthians 1:9
I read this passage this morning in my devotions, and it reminded me of how faithful God has been and will continue to be. A lot has happened in the last month. The students graduated from the Bible school in June. It was a special day, especially since it was the completion of the first year of the Bible school in Ecuador.
Since then, the school has moved and we are looking for a new location before the beginning of the new school year in September. We have 4 students enrolled so far, with more possibilities. I will be teaching an English Bible class 4 days a week for the whole school year starting in September. I'm excited for the opportunity, but a little nervous as well. I have been working on preparing my lessons and curriculum.
This week was the first week of our summer kids club. We still have 2 weeks left. We have around 50 kids and the students that graduated from the Bible school are teachers. I helped prepare the lessons and crafts for the different classes. I am also teaching English and piano. I think I'm learning more Spanish than they are English in preparing for my classes-ha.
Right now I am living with the pastor and his family until we find a new location for the school. Today we visited a place that has potential, but ultimately it's in God's hands.
I was sick for a little while, but am feeling much better now, praise the Lord.
Thank you all for your prayers, support, and encouraging notes.
Please pray:
For a new school location
For potential students
For my English class, preparing and teaching, that God would be glorified
For the Summer Kids' Club
Thank you again. In Christ, Amanda Bellefy
