Dear Edgar



"In the same way, I tell you, there is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.” Luke 15:10

I am overjoyed in my heart about an awesome testimony we have to share!!!!

Recently our kids befriended a neighbor. Edgar (pictured above) is a cute kid! After the first day of playing Jackson, Braden and Trinity began to tell him about all that Jesus has done because of His love for us. The cool part was that the kids really liked Edgar, but really had a burden for him to come to know the Lord.

The kids began sharing with Edgar about heaven and hell, about the difference between knowing about Jesus & having a relationship with Jesus!

Edgar's heart began to be moved! Edgar's reply was, "I want Jesus to be my Savior too!" Then they helped Edgar pray to the Lord. Later that day the kids shared with us what had happened. Thank You Jesus for your love!

We have really enjoyed getting to know him & see the friendship with him grow. Braden has given Edgar his first Bible & now the kids are reading a chapter or 2 of Luke & then talking about it together. Please keep Edgar in your prayers that he would continue to grow in relationship with the Lord.
