Another amazing day!

I am sure my wife, Kristin Wagner, will find it amusing that I am writing a blog that consist of anything more than, " it was great day"!  But I would be doing everyone on the team and those at home a great disservice if I did not mention some of the amazing things that be all experienced today! 

We started the day with taking a group to the old building that the preschool use to be located in order to give it a new face lift.  A wonderful group, For the love of missions, which is a ministry out of the Buford area, has rented the building and will be setting up a business that will allow people in the landfill to work and earn a living. We were able to paint four rooms and are excited about the blessings that the families in the landfill will get as they have new opportunities to provide for there families.

Another group went into the landfill in the afternoon to do house visits.  The group brought bags of food, shared, prayed, and witnessed to these families.  Several wonderful reports highlighted by a 19yr old young man, David, accepting Christ! Glory be to God! Pastor Saul and his team have been witnessing to David for 2 years.  Today was his day, he committed his life to the one and only Jesus 
Christ, what a blessing!

We then regrouped with everyone at 5:00 pm and went to the landfill to pass out dinner to the families there.  God was great as he held off the heavy rain, just a few showers, and were able to have several wonderful conversations and play time with the kids.  We finished off the time in the landfill with a gathering in the church there, as we were honored by Pastor Saul and all given some cool shirts!  We also thanked him and his team with a gift as well, prayed, sang songs, and encouraged each other...what a great time.

We finished off the evening with a group devotion back at SETECA, which always is a highlight.  How amazing it is to see God at work in so many hearts!

Until tomorrow.......
