Awesome, Awesome, Awesome!!! Wonderful, as only God can do! I am so overjoyed with Christ’s blessing in Maruf’s life! I am so glad Maruf made the choice for Jesus Christ! So glad! The Lord God will make his name known in all the earth, and he has blessed Maruf with life! I can’t wait to see him again!

God is at it again. Just try and stop HIM. How wonderful that Maruf is a child of the Lord and now knows it. Very touching.

Here are a few more photos from the Orphans Refuge trip (June 2009) showing Maruf and Abezu.

Maruf is the “cigarette smoker” on the far left in the dramatization the 3 boys are doing of typical street-kids’ lives. Ashinafi and Asrat also recently confessed faith in Jesus as Lord and Savior–so it’s neat to look at those photos of the 3 of them now.

How beautiful is the body of Christ. Welcome Maruf!!.. More great news for the Bridges’ ministry. No doubt that these gifts make the sacrifice seem timely and valuable.

He must increase!!
