Sloping, Soccer & Dancing!

07/12/2011

What a day!

We began the day at the elementary school where we performed some Elijah skits for the kids and then they performed some songs, dances, and skits for us.  Great time!

Then in the afternoon part of the team went to watch the football (soccer) match at the pitch (soccer field).  While they did that,

In the afternoon today, Linda and I went to visit the families of some children who have been sponsored by families within our church. We “sloped down” the mountain on cow paths about a foot wide.  I know they were cow paths because I was gently encouraged to get moving by a bull who came up behind me unexpectedly!

One of the young men put the crowning touch on the day by sharing with us about the reactions he has heard from some of the students about our ministry here.  He encouraged us that many people feel their lives have been greatly improved here in Kishanje and probably in all of the places where we have ministered.  It’s a great blessing to know that God is using us to build people up for His service.

So awesome to see my girl, Costa, and see her getting the things we sent her. My kids enjoyed that as well! Thanks so much for that. Hopefully, in the coming years, I will be able to wrap my arms around her once more!
