Emmanuel’s Rescue
2008 September 18
Don’t miss my brother’s most recent post, “Emmanuel Has Been Rescued.” You have to love the title, don’t you? Pretty fitting since the original Emmanuel applied this scripture to his mission:
The Spirit of the Lord is on me,
because he has anointed me
to preach good news to the poor.
He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners
and recovery of sight for the blind,
to release the oppressed,
to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.
My nephew, Van, just made the trip with his mom and dad to Village of Hope. He got roped into an art and music workshop. You can read the excitement on his face.

Love this ministry. All of the pots from the recent trip are beutiful and inspiring.
It’s great to see that the expression for ‘this is SOoooo ridiculous’ is universal…
Thank you Mike for sharing this with us.
God bless all you and your brother does for the Kingdom!
There is nothing better than making kingdom difference!
Praise God for the rescue of Emmanuel! Our son said Emmanuel was the hardest to turn around & leave in August because he was shivering with the flu or malaria, & naked before your brother threw a T shirt to him. At the time he was seen by them, it was 7 a.m. & Emmanuel had already been up almost 5 hours.
Don’t you know Emmanuel understands & appreciates so much more than any of us today what being in God’s Light means?!
