We Love Sundays

We had another great day of ministry today in the town of Nkhamenya.  Four students from the Bible school went with us and participated in teaching Sunday school, interpreting, and assisting as needed.  We had a great time singing and praying in the car on the two-hour journey to the church location. 

 

God was so very gracious to spare the life of a small child who ran out in front of our fast-moving vehicle.  It was truly miraculous that we did not hit her.  We always pray for traveling safety as we travel the very-dangerous roads in this country.

The pastor, his family, and church were very warm and receptive to our ministry.  A young man in the congregation was wearing a “Dont’ Mess With Texas” t-shirt.  I had him assist me in welcoming the congregation with the Texas greeting "howdy”.  Believe it or not, this is not an easy word for most, since they have never heard it before.

Knowing that Bible school students sacrifice so much to attend school and have very little money for personal items, the church did a very considerate thing and gave our guests toiletry items.  That is no small gesture for one in need!

It is always a joy to shake hands with the people at the conclusion of the service.  And, of course, there is always time for photographs or jambula.  Thanks, Pastor and Family, for such a great day of ministry.
