Final day

Hello Everyone!

Sorry it's taken so long to post about the final day. Our Charlotte crew made it back safely and we all had an absolute blast. What we would love to do is tell you a little bit about Mrs. Charlotte Blue.

Now you've seen Mrs. Blue on this blog before.

Mrs. Blue is a resident of Baltimore and actually lives in the neighborhood right next to Stillwater. She's a deacon at her church and she loves the Lord. As our students were walking around the neighborhood handing out fliers, they came across the house of Mrs. Blue. One of the leaders, Chelsea, explained what they were doing and about the VBS that Stillwater was holding that week!

From there the kids moved on, walking up the street and handing out more fliers. On their way back, Cheslea and the group of students stopped back by Mrs. Blue's house and asked if they could pray for her. What they didn't know is that Mrs. Blue was about to go to the doctor's office. On a prior visit, the doctors told her that they found a mass that they needed to test for cancer, as well as a possibility of gall stones. Chelsea and the students prayed fiercely for the doctor's wisdom and for peace for Mrs. Blue.

The next day something incredible happened. Mrs. Blue walked over to the church and told us that during her visit the previous day the doctors gave her some incredible news. The mass was gone! Her gall bladder checked out completely fine! They told her she was perfectly healthy!

This whole experience was an incredible privilege to be a part of; things like this are proof that God is indeed at work in the city of Baltimore!

Thanks again to all who prayed for our trip this past week - we felt it. The Lord blessed us as a group with friendships (old and new) and abilities to reach the kids in Baltimore. But we have one request - please don't stop here. Baltimore and other cities in the US need the Lord. We all do! Please continue to pray for the people at Stillwater EFCA. Their mission is a tough one ahead but we know that with God's help, anything is possible.

So for one last time we say goodbye and God Bless for all who were involved in our BUMP Baltimore 2011. We can't wait for 2012!
