Retta and tre


This is us with Lorretta & her son Latrelle, we met on the flight to Jamaica. Mark had a chance to pray with and for her, but we didn't take any contact details. But then a couple days later who do we see as we were standing in line at the cashpoint machine in Negril? Her, her son and his dad, we could hardly believe our eyes. Of all the places in the whole of Jamaica. We had a great opportunity to speak to her and then met up nearly everyday during our stay. She even came to Church with us one night. Please keep her, Latrelle & dad in your prayers.

A disciple & one not far from the kingdom

Kirk (left, who accepted Christ on Tuesday evening) & Ricky (who has run out of reasons why not to repent & embrace salvation) have been spending a great deal of time with us traveling, talking, eating even witnessing. Kirk attended Church four times & Ricky twice. We were up until 12.30am one night discussing the fall, with Adam & Eve in the garden of Eden. These two did most of the talking recounting the well known story in their own limited way dramatically with actions.....it was hilarious and yet eye opening for the both of them. Please keep them both in your prayers

FILM NIGHT
The children at Cousin's Cove

Tuesday 16th


THE GOSPEL ABOUT MR INCREDIBLE
About 60 people came out this evening for the film night. First up was the incredibles for the children, after which we talked about the real Mr incredible - 'Jesus'......& the war between good & evil. Then afterwards we all (incl the kids who didn't want to leave) watched 'The Gospel' http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0451069/ it was big! Kirk who we met at Negril as we were sharing the gospel last Saturday came with us.....& at the end of the film he responded to the invitation of Salvation after I shared from Luke 15 (the prodigal son) I didn't ask for anything other than a show of hands, but Kirk & another young lady who was crying, both left their seats & came to the front, at which point we prayed for them to accept Christ. It was just the sovereign hand of God let me tell you. Thank you for co laboring with us in prayer.

Monday 15th

It's no longer cricket.....Fornication is the new national sport!!

Had Vessel & Oniel collect chairs (for film nights at the basic school) from Lucea, this afternoon, 50 in total. Had to leave Sabena at the resort because she is being collected by her uncle & going back to Kingston, she was such a blessing to us over the weekend, we're going to miss her. Film night tonight is 'The Family Man' (Nicholas Cage) It gave us the opportunity afterwards to talk about the family......or the dire lack of it in Jamaica......people do recognise the problem but so many feel unable to commit, women as well as men, promiscuity & Aids are rife. The LORD really helped us to outline God's perspective on the family & challenge the ungodly status quo.

Sunday 14th


Mark preaching - God is the perfect Father, at retreat Mountain.
I spoke at the morning service 'Fathers hold the key' we had a really good turnout, the building hardly had seats left. Here is Marky doing the evening service and Loretta (young lady we met on the plane) linked up with us and came to church and heard the message, she wanted to turn to every verse following Mark as I sat next to her helping her to find them in the bible. The LORD has affected her deeply she calls us up and we speak every day with her and her partner. They will be coming over in the week to spend time with us at our resort. Please pray that The LORD will continue to work.
