I know it's early but we celebrated Mother's Day yesterday here at Nueva Vida! We did it early because next week we are having our church service at a recreational park so that we can have baptisms. Back to yesterday. We had 71 in attendance!! Unbelieveable!!!! God is so good!! It is unbelieveable for a couple of reasons. One is that we had that many people in our house and we still have room for a few more!! Secondly, we are just overwhelmed at how God is bringing folks in to Nueva Vida!! We knew we were ready for a big Sunday as our attendance has been increasing but we still hadn't had everyone come on the same Sunday. Yesterday was the big one and we also had 8 visitors!! I'm sending some pics with this blog as well. We had a Mother's Day Banquet after the service. The men in the church did the cooking and waited on the tables. They did a fantastic job!! The children (all 27 of them!!) went upstairs and watched a DVD about Jim Elliot. It was in a cartoon format and it is very good for those of you out there looking for good christian DVDs. There are several out there by Voice of the Martyrs. We also had dads watching the children. Everything went along as planned. Almost too well. I assumed that there were going to be interruptions with that many people in the house. I trust that all you mothers out there have a wonderful Mother's Day this weekend!!
