Two little girls studying the Bible

This winter we met, Miya. She had recently become a Christian and speaks 3 languages: Japanese, Tagolog, and English. Unfortunately her marriage had ended in divorce and she found herself a single mother. Her daughter, Monica, is 3 years older than Cherry and we recommended Miya to put her daughter in our English School and then we would look for opportunities to serve them as a family. This summer with the presence of another Christian teacher we were able to put Monica and Cherry in an English Class by themselves where they could also learn Bible Stories. Last week was their first class. I talked to Miya as she waited to pick up her daughter. Her face was so much happier then the one I had seen 6 months ago when we first met. She was praising God for his goodness. I praise God for progress in sharing the good news of Jesus Christ, and that in 6 months a chance meeting has led to children studying the Bible together.
