For 12 weeks the 12 ladies met at our house for a Bible study: "Calm My Anxious Heart--A Woman's Guide to Finding Contentment" by Linda Dillow. I met with Emi on Fridays to teach her in English, and then Wednesday she would lead it in Cebuano. Ladies lives were transformed, scripture was memorized, and their husbands grew more hungry to know God as a result of seeing their lives.
The ladies performed a beautiful native worship dance for their husbands. They were singing about how they want to be godly wives and mothers for the Lord.
At the end, the husbands stood beside their wives as they committed their way to the Lord. The women want to live lives of contentment and joy by the Word and the Spirit. It was such a blessing that ALL 12 husbands came to support their wives, even though some of them do not yet know the Lord personally.
Here is the fun group! I was so thankful for what God did to bring these people into our lives. May the Lord continue to help everyone live out what they learned, especially me!
We don't really celebrate American Thanksgiving here, but we did have quite a feast on Sunday after the special event. We had a Filipino favorite--lechon baboy (roasted pig). They also made other specialties like Buko salad (coconut salad), kinilaw (raw fish with vegetables), and a very rare dish made from the pig's blood. I think Elijah wonders if the pig is still alive!
