and Croatian. Prayed with them and confirmed their faith in Jesus Christ. Blessed their vessels.
BERNARDO QUINTANA A, and HIGH PROSPERITY - Indian, and Filipino. 2 Indian Christians on each
ship. God is still giving opportunities to Indian to turn from their false gods to the true and living God.

They all have Bibles. So I just prayed with them. May God bless their families and the vessel.
