"...And they admitted that they were aliens and strangers on earth. People who say such things show that they are looking for a country of their own. If they had been thinking of the country they had left, they would have had opportunity to return. Instead, they were longing for a better country—a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them." Hebrews 11:13-16

Sermon on the mount...

So Sunday went well. My friend Rebecca led worship for the first time and I preached at church for the first time. It went well. I gave the sermon that I gave in Homiletics class because I only had one days notice. I wasn't even nervous. Usually I am shaking and my throat is totally dry but I was fine. Many people told me afterwards that they really enjoyed my sermon so I guess that is good. I am looking forward to more opportunities to preach which Pastor Ramesh is willing to let me.

PS - for those of you who don't know... Nuwara Eliya is at the top of the mountains here...

Kendra,

I was looking at the meaning of names the other day, and I happened to notice that your name means "prophetess" as well as "wise" "understanding" and "knowledgeable". I think that suits you. Just wanted to encourage you.

Be blessed.

Hey Kendra,

Just wanted to let you know we prayed for you regarding the water shortage where you are. Mr. Cressman said that in hot countries it can be quite difficult when you can't get water. But we're believing in God to be your provider!!

Many blessings,
Court
