Heart Felt

This is Sepa (her name means Hope), a teenage gal coming to Wednesday Bible studies under the tree out front. She is a strong believer in Jesus and very involved in her church here in Sesheke. She is my new buddy...she has felt convicted to tell people about Jesus, so on Mondays now we go share Jesus with folks in our neighborhood. This week one person, our neighbor's sister, accepted Christ! Yeah! Sepa and I met together last Saturday to pray and make felt books with each colored page representing an aspect of how one can come to know Jesus, and then we were able to give the books to the children at the homes we visited. The felt came from Woodland Baptist Church in Wichita, KS, and my dear friend Pam, a PT in Texas. Thank you for your part in sharing Jesus with the Lozi people of Zambia!! We use a method called Creation to Christ to share Jesus. Basically we start in Genesis with how God created the world, move to how people sinned and why we need a Savior, and then how Jesus perfectly meets our need for a Savior and how He is the only one who can bring us back to the Father, God. The felt book is a reminder of:
BLACK- sin we have all sinned
RED- Jesus died on the Cross for our sins, even though He is perfect. He rose again on the 3rd day!
WHITE-If we ask God to forgive our sins He is faithful and just to do so, we will be clean and white like snow when He forgives us from our sins
YELLOW- If we ask Jesus to forgive us our sins and confess that Jesus is Lord and want to follow Him, when we die we will go to heaven, where there are streets of gold
GREEN- when we read our Bible or have someone read it to us if we cannot read, and pray, and worship God together with other people who are following Jesus, then we are growing in our faith and closer to Jesus



This cutie pie is Chi-Chi, who is turning 3 tomorrow! She is Sepa's cousin, but they are more like sisters because they are so close. Madylanne loves playing with her when Sepa comes over. Here they are with their babies on their backs.
