"What I Have I Give You"
April 13. We went to Arimatea village and did spend the early afternoon bathing in huge fountainheads. Our companies enjoyed the beautiful landscape along the unpaved road to the church. They felt in love with Chiapas nature and her people's generosity.
We've had visitors from Merida, Yucatan. Rev. David Yang, serving Yucatecans, visited us and preached at Arimatea Church (Chol & Tzeltal speaking people). "Silver or gold I do not have," he reminded the apostolic missions, "but what I have I give you" (Acts 3). He invited the church to redeposit our faith in Christ and, doing so, challenged to value it. It was a teaching for a healthy missions, too.
The service lasted 2 hours. At 9:30pm (for us citypeople/an hour slower for villagers) the ladies society insisted us to wait for a quick meal. They served us fried eggs with tortillas made at once. What a moment of stewardship! We've enjoyed serving each other.
