Back Home

Our group has finally arrived home this past Monday after an amazing summer serving the Lord. How do you summarize an entire summer in a few brief paragraphs? How would you describe everything that God has done the past 6 weeks? We will probably never realize all of the ways that God has been working this summer. But we know that He has been at work in a powerful way. And we know that He will continue to be at work. Don't stop praying for Italy and for all of the students that have come to know Christ this summer. They are:

Maria Carmela
Antonella
Guisi
Marika
Philippo
Giuila
Franchesca
Virginia
Antonella R.
Davide
Rosana
Michela
Frachesca

Paulo
Teresa
Rafaella
Andrea
Irene
Sofia

They are our brothers and sisters in Christ. Pray that their faith is strengthened. Pray that they continue to grow closer to God. Pray that they will be given boldness to share what has happened to them.

We're looking forward to hearing more about what has happened this summer and what is going on in the lives of these students and any others that have been contacted. Please send us any updates/testimonies/prayers/praises that you might have so that they can be shared via blog. Write us at salernoproject@yahoo.com.

To close out this entry, we'll share with you a selection of quotes from Italians that have heard the gospel this summer. Until next time, ciao.

- For many years, I didn't know, and now you come from the US to tell me this.
- This is the first time I've ever heard this!
- Thank you! I have accepted God into my life now because of you!
- I want to know God personally! This is the desire of my heart for God to live inside me.
- I never knew salvation was this easy!

"The Lord will lay bare his holy arm in the sight of all the nations, and all the ends of the earth will see the salvation of our God." - Isaiah 52:10
