Epic Failure or Resounding Victory?

The photos below tell a story of our fellowship after our evening services Sunday night, May 1st.

Was it an epic failure or a resounding victory? The fellowship was promoted for our May birthdays. Lucillia on the 2nd, Juan on the 12th, Jesus on the 15th, Leonicio on the 20th and Anna on May 30th. Of those five only two made the service and fellowship. Our most faithful family, Juan and Anna Orosco - two of the birthdays, were absent along with Leonicio and his wife. As a birthday fellowship - Epic Failure.

The May birthdays though were just an excuse to grow everyone just a little bit more in the things of the Lord. Resounding Victory! Even with 5 (of our normal) absent we had 22 in our evening service. We can now count 4 families as a very real part of our work here. There is an excitement and they relate to each other as a whole. Last night several made comment of how they were going to follow up on the ones that were missing. A realization on their part that it is not just the pastor/missionary job to "provoke one another to love and good works".

So how did the day turn out. Resounding Victory there was no failure in the day.
