The McGrady's

Dear Praying Friends, We just wanted to give you an update from Cuenca, Ecuador. God Blessed us with 30 people in attendence at our Easter Service at our home. We began our service with a time of worship prepared by Jordan and lead by Marlene. Ned shared some devotional thoughts from the resurrection story and we celebrated communion together. Following an awesome worship service, we had a ping pong tournament on our newly made table while many of the ladies cooked a delicious meal from 4 different countries, including foods from Peru, Columbia, Ecuador and the USA. We had a huge turkey and a chocolate bunny cake to top things off. After our meal and recreation time, we watched the movie the "End of the Spear", (slain missionaries, in the Ecuadorian jungle,1950's), which was well received by all. God's blessings were abundent during our day of celebration and we praise God for it. We have transformed a portion of our carport into a church and God is blessing as we reach out into our community and new people are coming in. Some of you have been praying for Absolem, a neighbor that Ned has become friends with. Absolem came to church today. He continues to show interest in the things of God. Keep praying for the work here Cuenca. God is doing great things here. The work is growing and we need your prayers to continue to be equiped to serve the Lord as He has called us to. Thanks for your prayers and support. The McGrady'sNed, Marlene and JordanRev. Ned R.
