Oh When the Saints go Marching In


So I went to a graduation ceremony this week that topped my own by a landslide! There were 120 Liberian graduates from Todee who were celebrating their completion of an 18 week Discipleship program. They came down this red dirt road singing "Oh when the Saints...go marching in...!" They have learned the truth about our Lord Jesus Christ and have been commissioned to spread the Good News throughout their villages. This day, they each received their very own bible. Sweet and precious!

Please pray for these graduates...that our Lord would continue His work in their hearts and lives. That they would have the courage to speak truth to their family and friends. That their love for our Saviour would increase day by day.
