Arabic Fellowship

No, I am not learning Arabic nor am I leading the Arabic Fellowship / Church! But we as a Phamily are doing the Children's Ministry for an Arabic Fellowship that uses our church's building on Friday nights. The Fellowship / Church consists of about 10 Arabic Christian families who meet to worship, study the Bible and fellowship - basically they meet as a church body.

During this time, we minister to their children - about 15 kids from between the ages of 4 and 15 years old. So Becks takes the younger kids (under 6 years) and plays with them while I take the over 6 and do a Bible study. It's been fun (also challenging) because this is something we can do as a Phamily. Jesaiah and Taliah go with me and the older kids while Zachie and Dariah go with Becks.

So please pray for these kids - most come from Christian or Catholic homes, but few actually know the Lord as their Savior. They know about God, about Jesus, about the Bible, but I don't think many actually have a personal saving relationship with the Lord. So last week, we went over how to know the Lord (or how to start a relationship with Him) and also how to be sure we know Him. We would love to see them come to know Jesus as Savior and Lord!

And to top it all off, we get paid a little bit by the leader of the Arabic fellowship to do this, so it covers the materials we use with the kids and a part of our food cost for the week. So that is a blessing to us. But to be honest, I think we would do this anyways, even if we weren't paid - we really want to serve this fellowship and especially these kids. We want to make an impact in their lives - for the Lord and His glory of course. Wouldn't it be awesome to see these kids develop a personal relationship with Jesus!?! So pray for us and them each Friday night.
