Dear Friends,

Thanks to all of you who prayed for our stay in the village! We have gone and come back now, and God has answered your prayers in many ways. We learned a lot of language and also a lot about village life, but most importantly we grew closer to the village people themselves. One family that had been cautious and distant seemed very touched by our attempts to reach out to them. They do not speak English, but they communicated their appreciation through a gift of food and through the few Tawala words we understand. A prominent woman who speaks English opened up to us about her fear that we were business people in disguise, trying to take advantage of the villagers. Another couple, completely on their own initiative, asked me (in English) to help their family study the Bible as soon as I am able. The man of this family, Simon, is pictured with Hannah and myself below.

Please thank God for opening their hearts to us and ask Him to help us learn their language quickly, so we can serve them soon. I know we can trust Him to do it through your prayers.

Marcus, with Diane and Hannah Reese
