A Resort Town … Mongolia Style

That is what we were told to expect in Bain Boral, the little village we have been serving in this past week. It was an extremely beautiful place, it reminded me a lot of British Columbia. We actually were teaching three churches this week, one a short 30 minute walk from the main church, and the other was another stop further by train. At the main church and the church farther down the tracks we taught Bible Overview (basically story-telling the big picture of the Bible), we also walked to the church 30 minutes away and prayed for people at their homes. Here in Mongolia they drink tea with milk and salt added. We drank a lot of this in the villages. We also were given a lot of homemade yogurt, this stuff is soooo good!! Ben would add a bunch of sugar and then eat tons :) We have lots of stories from this past week, again too many to tell, but the people were very interested in learning the story of the Bible because they really have never heard it before. When they understand the Bible is simply a huge rescue plan between God and people and His desire for relationship they really can understand God’s love. Our team is getting ready for a lot of teaching over the next two weeks, we are excited to finish strong!
