Good-afternoon everybody! I had a great time touring Tunis (the capital) yesterday. We walked through the market place, which was like the scene from the movie "Aladdin." Everybody is trying to sell different items that resemble North Africa and Tunisia. We wanted to make certain purchases, but the Professor said not to because they will cheat us. Charging 100 denares for something that is only 5denar. lol... One guy tried to sell me a picture for 50denar... I offered him 5denar... he said deal! ... lol... I love this country! lol... The landscape is amazing, architecture is still old, but the sites are breathtaking. Our hotel, is actually is the wealthier part next to the Presidential Palace. I tried to take a picture of the Palace, one of the guards immediately came from nowhere and stopped me! ... I gotta a good laugh out of it.... Speaking of pictures, I haven't posted any on the blog... mostly because the connection up here is very slow and is only in one room of the hotel... I'll try another time.
As a far a ministry yesterday, I couldn't/didn't get a chance to evangelize to the locals, because we had a tour-guide we had to follow... We weren't allowed to just wonder around... the time is soon coming... I used my Arabic a lot yesterday, just speaking to different people as we were walking through! Definitely see the oppotunities available next time or even when we ALL come back as a team with the gospel... Ya I'm talking to you who are reading... Cuz I'm just spying, WE are coming back full force one day... IF the Lord says the same... Amen? lol... I'm go now... we aer eating lunch soon... something called "koos-koos" idk...lol... we'll see what happens! Continue to post comments... and let me know.. what you wanna know...?
Keep your heads high Soldiers, looking to Jesus the Author & Finisher of Our Faith
"...Til The Nets R Full"
PS: The Lord opened 2 great opportunties to share His Love through Christ yesterday with 2 people here in Tunisia (names won't be disclosed). The conversation went GREAT, they were very receptive to the message and understood the concept of salvation from eternal hell and that faith in Christ alone is the only way! I was excited to plant/water in God's harvest!!! Pray for them please... God knows their names! Thanks Soldiers

Wow Grant I'm sooooo proud of you! I was thinking to myself, "he is really in Africa!" I never saw that coming but that just goes to show that you cant put limits on God. It sounds like u are really enjoying yourself thus far so continue to enjoy this blessing. I'm really praying that God will show u the miraculous and bring you to a new level in Him! God Bless you co-laborer in Christ!
ReplyDeleteGrant, keep up the good work! Change and influence comes via direct contact and personal relationships. You are doing the work of those who have passed before you. Please take time to pace yourself, smell the aroma of the land and appreciate Gods beauty in all that you see, hear, touch, taste and smell. It is incredible to see (read) your work manifested in everyday activities...you will be the man on the streets of Wilmington (LOL) now that you have this experience in your tool box. Stay blessed, stay encouraged and walk as He directs you!
