The month of October was a fruitful month through teaching of God’s Word and English to the orphans of ORPHELINAT UNIVERSEL DES OEUVRES HUMANITAIRES.
With the young ones (4 – 12 years), of which there are 8 children (4 boys and 4 girls), we have begun a series of teachings from God’s Word called ‘’Lessons of Life‘’. The first lesson spoke about ‘’The Creation‘’ which was followed by coloring drawing of Creation’s histories. The goal of this lesson was to give them a biblical explanation of the Creation. And help them to understand and appreciate the tremendous Power and Goodness of God so that they are encouraged to respect and love Him as they should. We believe that God is accomplishing this in their hearts.
With the teens, of which there are 3 (1 boy and 2 girls), we have begun a series of biblical lessons from ‘’The Book of Hope‘’ (A publication of Book of Hope International) which speak about topics related to teenagers. The first lesson taught about ‘’The Family‘’. The main goal was for the orphans to see God as a loving Father who wants to save and reconcile them in His Family through repentance and faith in His Son Jesus-Christ. One week after that lesson, one of them, Perkins made the decision to become a child of God. He is the first fruit of ours there, praise God. For the other girls, we have kept asking that God will open the eyes of their hearts so they realize their need to be saved.
Praise God, after the second lesson about ‘’Longing’’ (it taught them to find deliverance from sins only in Jesus-Christ), they (Adele and Michelle) realized their need of salvation and they confessed their sins and prayed to receive Jesus-Christ in their hearts as their Lord and Savior. Here are a few words from Adele testifying of her salvation: ‘’I realized after giving my life to Jesus-Christ that my behavior has changed …’’
Let’s bless the Name of our Lord Jesus-Christ who worked in their hearts through the Holy Spirit.
Let’s pray that God will continue His work, bringing them to the maturity of Jesus-Christ.
‘’To Him who is able to keep them from stumbling and present them blameless before the presence of His glory with great joy, to the only God, our Savior, through Jesus-Christ our Lord , be glory, majesty, dominion, and authority, before all time and now and forever. Amen ’’.
