Den-Den and Freda

Let me introduce you to you another couple we’ve met in our village.  Den-Den and Freda are a couple in their mid twenties, and have recently returned to the village where both of them grew up.  They left the village several years ago to attend college and returned to get married in 2008.  Freda is currently one of two teachers at the local public school a few villages away. 

IMG_3114 This past December we were able to give Den-Den and Freda a gift for their new baby, Mina Rose, including a quilt and some clothes.  These items were donated and sent by our home church, Faith Evangelical Missionary Church, in Wasaga Beach, ON.  What a blessing is to be able to do this on behalf of our church family and show the love of Christ in a practical way. 

When we last visited with Den-Den and Freda they told us they were planning to stay in the village and build a house there.  This last time I was in the village I had the chance to see that in progress.  We are excited to know that young families like this are choosing to make this village their home.  We look forward with great anticipation to when we will be able to share the Gospel with families like Den-Den and Freda, who will be the future of the Ga’dang church.
