Dear praying friends,

We have the TnT Team with us right now, so far we have visited 4000 homes with the 4YOU gospel magazine. While out on the doors two nights ago we came across a  woman (Ann) who had come out to our Carols by Candle Light service, she said she was impressed with the service as she had not been to one like that before, after a lengthy talk, her husband said they would like to come to church on Sunday, and what would be a good time. We are looking forward to seeing them at 11am on Sunday morning, their neighbour was Emma (19) who was also interested and said she was open to come along to church, she had been to the Jehovah's (Witnesses) as she has an Aunt in them, but had stopped going, also two ladies were met with a couple of other team members and they also said they will come out to church next Sunday as they already had commitments this weekend.

Yesterday we were in Rathkeale, the next town up from us, we delivered magazines in the morning then after lunch knocked on the doors. Do pray for Edmond, he is a man who had a troubled past. After 10 min on the door he invited Nathan and myself in for a talk, while he is open He thinks he is OK because of some vision he had that told him everything was going to be good. He took a New Testament and said he would read it later as he was painting the house, he also said he would be interested in a bible study and coming along to meeting sometime. He said that he had planned to go see a movie that afternoon  but for some reason decided to stay home, and now he knew why. One mother we met in this estate remembered me from a kids club we had in the previous neighbourhood she lived in, this opened her up and we had a lengthy chat. What is amazing is that club was held 12 years ago, and her daughter in now married with children. I told her I had a picture of the group back then, she would like to get a copy, so we know we have at least one more opening there.

Sinead is a woman who has been coming along to the meeting for the past month and a half, her son came to the Easter club. She has been attending the family service for the past 6 weeks and while she thinks she is OK, she is open to talk, do pray for her and her husband.

One bit of good news this week came from Ewa and Adam, one of the Polish couples in the meeting. Ewa was telling me on Sunday night that her friends Beata and Mirek were saved through the week. Ewa and Adam had been speaking to them for quite a while now and Ewa thought Beata may have gotten saved but she was not sure. Thankfully they both told Ewa & Adam that they had  come to faith in Christ that week. We are so pleased for Ewa & Adam as this is the first fruit in their gospel efforts.

Do pray with us as we follow up on contacts and also for those who said they would come out to meeting, that the Lord would prepare their hearts to receive the gospel.
