Our team met with one or two pastors everyday. I saw tears
in the eyes of a pastor when given a flannel graph set,
because he had been praying for one for his Sunday School
program. I heard prayers for more Bibles and people willing
to bring them in. One pastor prayed for the money to pay for
the materials needed for his parsonage foundation, and God
told him someone would knock on his door with the money:
we did just that.
We were also the answer to many prayers as we delivered
money for pastors’ support. It is a humbling experience to
hear them pray that God would bless us and our families
because they are so grateful for the work we are doing. When
possible, they cooked the very best meal they could afford to

the answer to people’s prayers. I am grateful God gave me the VBB HAS STARTED A
