Avellino Team



The team in September was another great experience. We had a fantastic group of young people and one 'young at heart'! We taught english in the mornings and in the evenings we were out in the open air performing mimes, singing, giving testimonies and bringing God's Word to the people. On the last day of the team we were able to take part in the baptisms of four people which was special as Virginia who accepted the Lord during the team last year, was one of those being baptised. Were also had an international evening where the parents and relatives of the children who came to the english course were invited. The children performed the song 'our God is big' and acted out the parable of the prodigal son. We also had a special breakfast meeting for ladies where Angie brought the message 'satisfied - even with unfulfilled desires'. New contacts were made and old ones strengthened, so we look to God to water and harvest all that was done in His name during these ten days. Another special event for us was in having Thomas Wright from Liberty Church in Bellshill along to do the bible teaching. Leo was his sunday school teacher when we were at Roman Road Hall. (Boy do we feel old)!!!
