Wednesday portrayal

From Matt

As we near the end there is anxiousness to get as much time to be with everyone at the center. It feels like we just got here in Athens and wish this was just the beginning. Throughout the whole day I really felt God's presence. We finished the walls and the painting in the basement. Brittany, Bailey, and Daniel painted a beautiful mural for the kids as the basement is their place to play during the service for the adults. The kids are full of energy and at times hard to handle. But, some of them really love the word of God and they do anything they can to remember it. Some wrote on their hand and others asked for a Bible which they had to hide so that it would not be taken from them later. The big difference today was prayer. Many at the center have physical ailments and praise God that some of them felt better. Also I observed some women praying before the service. There were a lot more people at the service than the last two times. More people that can hear the gospel. The fellowship we shared together after the service was great. There was so much love, and joy, and peace. We were a big family united by Christ Jesus. We ended the night in prayer and there was   great joy, and peace, and love. Thank you to everyone for the prayers that have been lifted up to a great God. It makes a difference.
