Ministry Opportunity

Jon 3:16

"God bin laigim ebribodi detmatj,

en imbin jandim im ronwan

san blanga dai blanga olabat,

wulijim ebribodi hu bilib langa

im garra abum det olagijawan

laif en nomo dai.

En mi na det san blanga im".

For the past few weeks, we have had the 

great privilege of filling in for some friends

and getting to minister to 

the people of Barunga in their Sunday morning services. 

What a blessing this time has been to our family. 

Barunga is a small indigenous community

about 80 kilometres south-east of Katherine. 

It has been exciting to see the Lord working

in this community and we have been 

blessed getting to know the people better. 

Dave brought some really good object lessons,

the girls helped with crèche and morning tea

and singing and we were able to teach the people

a couple of new Sunday school songs. 

(while we tried to learn their Kriol ones)

Maddie was able to practice her driving 

skills on the trips home and I enjoyed 

learning more of the Kriol language 

and the life stories of some of the faithful ladies. 

I have tried to put together a short video

to give you more of an idea of the work,

but I will warn you, the quality is not great

as the acoustics in the building are a little interesting.

1 Corinthians 16:9

For a great door and effectual is opened unto me,

 and there are many adversaries.

There is a great door of opportunity

in this community, but the Devil

knows this and does his best

to thwart the work of God in people's

hearts. Please pray that souls will be saved

and lives will be changed and

all the glory will be given to God!
