God is Doing More Than We Asked!

Written by Sharon:

Many of our students are at a conversational level in English because they have taken classes at Colombo-Americano, a school that teaches only English.  Yesterday, one of my students called to ask permission to bring one of her teachers to class.  So, her teacher, Belinda, from Colombo sat in on our class.  Belinda is from Ghana, Africa and has lived in Cartagena one and a half years.  As our conversation began, we learned that she had been hearing her students talk about the English classes and she was interested.  But she was even more interested when they told her that we were studying the Bible.  She told us that she misses her small group Bible study back in Africa.  Belinda can speak three African languages, English and is learning Spanish.  She said that she has been to some Spanish churches here, but has a hard time enjoying them because she doesn't understand Spanish very well.  So the idea of finding an English Bible study was very appealing to her.  After a wonderful time together, she rushed off, trying to make it back to her own class at Colombo on time.

Then a surprise - we were at the Wednesday night worship service when suddently Belinda showed up and sat down beside me!  She said the electricity had gone out at the college, she sent her students home and decided to come check out the church! 

God is opening doors in Cartagena.  We praise God that our students are so excited about the classes that they are talking even to their teachers about them.  We are so thankful and thrilled that our students are not only excited about learning English but also that they have been given an opportunity to study God's Word!
