Mongolian Happenings
This spring Jeff has been mentoring two men from our church. During one of those meetings they went through the process of how to share about Jesus using the Roman's road passages. He challenged them to share this with their unbelieving friends. A few weeks later Aagii and his wife went out on a young people's outreach to a different town and shared the Roman's road with an unbeliever and the person accepted Christ as his savior. We are so excited for them as they share their faith and see how God is working in their lives and the lives of people around them. Another Story... Just this past week our friend Boldoo's mom passed away. She was a believer but some of her family and friends were Buddhist. Jeff had performed the funeral for the family since none of the other pastors were around. Just yesterday Boldoo came to our house to share about what had been happening in his life. He had been taking a lot of ridicule from his neighbors and his aunt for not a lighting Buddhist candle in their ger to signify his mother's death and her mourning. He came to us looking for a way to substitute the Buddhist tradition with something from the Bible to help explain to people his faith in Christ. As they were talking Jeff thought of the verse in the Psalms, Thy word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path. Jeff said to Boldoo, the Bible is our candle, it is our light and instead of placing the candle on the table place the Word of God on the table with this verse circled and share with people about how this is our candle, the Word of God.
Baby Ava
If you have not heard we are expecting our second child come Dec. 1st. We are very excited about this new addition to our family. We just found out we are going to be having another girl, so now are Kaylee will have a younger sister. She still doesn't always understand what that means but we know she will be a great big sister.
HAB Camp 2010
We had a great time at HAB camp this year. We went 100km up into the mountains, it took us 3 hours to get there crossing 6 rivers and only 1 truck got stuck. (Not mine praise the Lord) We had a good time talking about discipleship and reminding ourselves about the basic things we need to focus on as the Church of Bayankhongor.
As you can see above we also played volleyball, table tennis, and chess. Had a good time going to a close hot spring (that smelled like rotten eggs) and hiking up the near by hills.
