Saturday we made a trip to the market to buy some material for the new church. We needed to make a curtain to divide off part of the room. I told the taxi driver to take us to a store that sold fabric. Once we got to the store and began to tell the worker what dimensions we needed and so forth, the lady behind the desk came around to help. She of course thought Joseph was just wonderful. I then asked her if she had always lived in Tegucigalpa,( hoping to find out if she was Arab, we were certain she had to be ) Sure enough, she was Arab. She was born in Bethlehem and moved here 34 years ago. Well when she found out Hannah spoke Arabic man things exploded!! I was lost in the dust of about an hour worth of chatting in Arabic. Alette was so excited to meet us!! She is Orthodox Catholic but is interested in inviting us to her home to have a healing service for her sister who cannot have children. ( This could get very interesting ) She wants to get together for Arabic food and also to throw a birthday party for Joseph when he turns one year old. She was so sweet. Please help us pray for direction that we can minister to her the gospel of Christ. It is definitely an exciting new development.
