Today we were originally scheduled for five church presentations but one of them was changed due to a special Father's day program at one of the churches. That did still leave us with three morning services and one evening service. We left the house around 7:00 am to give us time to get to the first service and get everything setup for it. The programs went well even though Joy woke up with a sore throat and laryngitis and it was a little difficult for her to speak. In the three morning services combined, there were over 300 people to whom we had the opportunity to minister. After each of the services we gave out tracts to be used in their witnessing endeavors and had many people come and request more to take to give to their friends in their neighborhoods and schools. At the end of the last morning service, we were invited to eat lunch with the pastor and his family. It was a good time of fellowship and replenishment.

We had a couple of hours to rest at home before heading our for our evening service. We were not sure if the teams from the day before would come but the top three teams did. We presented our program and I preached an evangelistic message. During the invitation there were several people indicating that they would like to accept Christ as Savior. We then gave out the prizes to the top teams from the volleyball tournament that we hosted the day before.

After a snack with the pastor's family. We headed back home around 10:30 at night to get some rest before needing to leave our house the next morning at 6:00 am for a chapel presentation before going sightseeing.
