One of my English students invited me to have dinner with her family tonight and what was supposed to be a two-hour visit ended up being five hours. Every week, I teach the mother and her two small children, a girl (9) and a boy (6). Naturally we ended up talking a lot about education (home schooling, public/private schools). We also discussed communism, the history of democracy, and even a bit about church government. She’s interested in coming to church, though she says she’s been to church once before and felt very much out of place because she didn’t understand what was going on.

Since I’ve started working last year, I’ve had many, many opportunities to share portions of the Bible and a few times to relate the Gospel very clearly at length. I pray for more opportunities to do so.

The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few. Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that He will send forth labourers into His harvest.
