It has been a great couple of days working with Paul Childers in Grosseto. Grosseto is a city of about 80,000 people. It is located pretty much on the Mediterranean Sea, and about two hours north of Rome. I have been stuffing mailboxes with tracts, and on Thursdays Bro. Childers and I go to an open air market that they have and pass out tracts to people, there. We have also been doing some projects at the church building as well. The people of Bible Baptist Church in Grosseto are great people, and very kind and friendly. Bro. Childers is pretty busy as he is the second man at the church but the pastor is gone on furlough. Please pray for the work going on in Grosseto. It is just like any where else in Italy, the people will say they are Catholic, but an actuality, there is a very small percent that actually practice their religion. Every one in Italy pretty much do not care about what happens in the future. I was talking to a missionary recently and she was telling me that, she was talking with this man about salvation, and it took them forever to get him to realize that salvation is not of works, but of grace and experiencing the new birth, and when he realized there was nothing he could do to earn it, he didn't want any thing to do with it. Please keep praying, I know God is working. Also, please pray for the Childer's, Bro. Paul's family is back in the states right now, because the visa has not come through for Mrs. Childers and the children and they are just waiting for that to go through. Thank you for all of your prayers, please keep praying.
