Fiji - Day 4

Nick is doing well in Fiji - on Tuesday morning he took a 'cottage meeting', and two more on Wednesday and Thursday evening. He has needed to make use of an interpreter for some of the meetings as the older generation Indians only speak and understand Hindi. Please keep praying for him, and especially for his health as food and water is not always prepared in accordance with our westernized stomachs' tolerance levels! This is his report from today:

Well, what a day.

It started with us going to the town of Ba, to have a look around. We had tea at a local tea house, and went to the food market. I have a few photos. During that time we were asked to conduct a wedding tomorrow for a Hindu girl and a NZer. He wanted a ‘Christian’ wedding, because he had seen on a dvd how long and arduous a Hindu one is. So we went there around 3:30 to discuss the ceremony and to give some premarital counseling. The wedding is tomorrow.

So after that we went to the house of a young couple who had a baby on the day I arrived and I led a short devotion and prayer time for the baby.

Then after that we picked up some people and headed out to a young man’s house where he had invited us for a meal and to share a short devotion with the family. There were some non Christians there. We had a very good feed there, I am getting lots of curry. I couldn’t drink the pea soup it was too rich, Narsarma tells me that they use a lot of butter in it, that is probably why.
