Sunday at Luchenza

We had a great time of ministry Sunday with Pastors George and Mayamiko Chiwaya at Luchenza A/G Worship Center.   Since you couldn't be there, I have included some pictures of our day...

We knew we were in the right place when we saw the church sign.  The parking lot was not full, but there were many bicycles and motorbikes there when we arrived.

The ladies group sang a special.  I love the African music and praise and worship through song, spirit, and dance.

Two of the home cell groups presented the pastor and his family with a love offering - very similar to our "poundings" from years gone by.  What a blessing to a pastor - you should try it for yours!

The pastor's young son standing with the men after service reminded me of something our son, Caleb, would have done at that age.  He chattered away, though we couldn't understand much of what he said since he is two years old and spoke in Chichewa.

Pastor George and Mayamiko Chiwaya and two of their three children: Shammah and Shaddai.  They have a daughter, Shalom, as well.  Please pray for the baby.  He was just released from the hospital after a ten-day stay with pneumonia.  The doctor suspects that he may have asthma as well, so this little guy needs a touch of healing in his body.
