The “Hutan” or Jungle
One cool thing we did while in Pekanbaru was do a Good Friday service in the “hutan” or jungle with a community of Nias people. These people are incredibly poor and the kids do not go to school. Once the kids are old enough, around 8 to 10 years old, they start working to help provide for the family by cutting grass. These kids were a huge blessing, they were so happy and full of life and they worshiped! We start service with worship and the Spirit was on them and they were worshipping! It was an incredible day and time. God is so good and in control. Once Jehovah Jireh goes into phase two of taking more kids some of these kids will probably come and live in the house where they can be better fed and taken care of as well as go to school.
