Good things of June
From Global Lutheran Outreach missionaries Victor, Belén and Sophia Rivas (serving in Guyana)
God has been Good. Four days a week Guyanese Outreach attends children in the afternoon, teaching them English and Math. Our
Sofía has being blessed with teachers and friends. God also has blessed us by letting us know wonderful children. Learning Guyanese Creole has been a challenge. A wonderful one. While we understand more of what is going on around us, we feel happier. Still, sometimes we find ourselves confused; but the best thing of all is that we have many teachers. Beautiful people willing to explain things.
We have praying for Sofía’s faith, and He is answering in wonderful ways, I will like to share one small story: I went to pick up Sofi from school, and she said “Mommy one of the girls was saying something and I couldn´t understand, and she was getting angry, so I asked Jesus to give me wisdom; and what she wanted was to play with another girl, so I went to play with another friend, than she was happy again, do you see? God always answers when we pray.”
Maybe many of you already know, the one of the most difficult things to left behind is family and friends. So having mom was a big blessing. We had time to play, to talk alot, to drink many cups of coffee.
These moments helped us to remember that weare always together, church is one in Christ. And while we are here learning every day, our big families are with us in constant prayer.
