Cameroon 7/9/12

Today started out with a breakfast of puff puffs (Cameroon equivalent of Krispy Kreme) and scrambled eggs. Yum yum! At 9:00 the team headed out to go recruiting for this afternoon's teen rally in Bambili. That was fun! It started out just handing out flyers and tracts, then it turned into a ballon festival! A lot of us were making balloon animals, hats, swords, flowers, etc... For the kids. It was a huge hit! Later I got to talk with a man and his wife about salvation. They believed that God doesn't turn anyone away from heaven and that there is no hell. I took him through the Romans road and then I took him to the story about the rich man and Lazerus and showed then that the Bible says there is a literal hell. He argued that it was only a parable, but I explained to them the differences between a parable and a true story. They were very curious about learning more about the gospel, and I invited them to the teen rally. They promised to show, but they didn't. The seed has been planted. It is up to God to do the rest.
Balloon animals attracted a ton of attention.
Lunch was a delicious chicken salad, and fresh watermelon. We chilled at the house until 3:00 -- playing phase 10, getting ready for the teen rally, and napping.

3:00 came quickly. About 60 showed for the teen rally. It was a good turnout considering the torrential downpour that accompanied it. It ran fairly smoothly. I got to give my testimony. No one was saved this evening that I know of, but there are still 3 more nights of it! Woopie!

We came home to another delicious meal by Mrs. Sinclair -- potato soup and cheddar biscuits! Now we are all sitting around playing cards and chilling. Tomorrow starts our first day of HBS! We are expecting to have a huge turnout! Keep praying!
