We have told you before that there are more from up in the Bogkalot tribe who are feeling God at work in their hearts about the possibility of them being the "next wave" who will be sent out to join the work down here to reach the Agta. Well, 4 couples came down to our area this past week to do a mini-survey and to participate in the Culture and Language Study Seminar (see next post). All 4 of these couples are asking God to lead their next steps and are willing to move down here and join the work as He leads. 3 of these couples are quite confident of how God is leading and hope to move down here in less than a year. Here they are arriving at their first Agta village to meet the people.
Learning how to show respect to the Agta.
They spent a lot of time just visiting and talking with the people. Notice the 2 ladies in the forefront holding little ones? Well, they came on the survey with nursing babies in tow. Survey work is tough on its own, but these moms had their work cut out for them this week! They were tired but encouraged when they left. :)
They met lots of people and saw lots of sights in the Agta villages they visited.
After visiting a couple villages, they got on a boat and headed across the lake to visit the villages on the other side.
Some more visiting time, then it was time for the language seminar to start (see next post).
Please lift up these couples/families as they ask God to lead them in the months ahead. For some of them, there are barriers that stand in the way for them to "go". Ask for clear direction and that they would faithfully follow wherever He leads.
