Quito Day Four

Just to finish up day three, Scott Stewart and I had an unbelievable experience as we got to speak live last night on the international talk radio program called "Refugio Secreto" on radio station HJCB.  We spoke of how our church first become involved in missions in Ecuador and how we have had the opportunity to share the Gospel with so many in this part of the world.  The radio host who also serves as pastor at the church were we held the medical clinic told me today that the listening audience for Quito was 400,000. and throughout Ecuador it is 4 million, and then it literally is broadcast all over the world!  We saw several people there today who listened in last night and came over today.

Today we had the chance to minister to 357 people. Toward the end of the day we began to run out of all the medicines we had allotted for this day.  We were at least able to give every person something.  The main thing we gave away today was the Gospel message as again many of the patients prayed to receive Christ.

I had the personal pleasure of speaking with a 55 year old lady who was blind in one eye. We gave her some reading glasses that helped her some but of course it didn't alleviate her physical problem.  However I then sat down and explained to her the truth of the Gospel and with tears in her eyes she prayed to receive Christ.
Her physical blindness was still there but the spiritual blindness was gone!

Bill Brasher had a chance to minister to a lady who just 2 weeks ago saw her 2 year baby get run over by a car.
Everyone on our team had an opportunity to touch someone who was hurting both spiritually and physically. God continues to use this incredible team and for that I am truly grateful.
We cherish your prayers as we go to Shekinah Baptist Church on Wednesday.  It will be another long day as Shekinah is located in far south Quito.
Thanks for the prayers.
