Hello friends and Family,
Our second day as a team began by gathering together for our morning devotional remembering the reason we are in Africa - to advance the Gospel of Jesus Christ and the humble fact that God would use us for His purpose - we are reconciled in Christ for His plans! This time really focused our attention on the day and for sharing with those we encountered, and wow, what a day it has been.
We traveled to Cornerstone Preparatory Academy to lead chapel for the entire school - the younger kids at 10am and the older kids at 11am. With the brand new sound system we brought from Texas, Chapel was LOUD and fun. McKinley, Jeremy and Keith led with songs, Heather and Anna Grace shared their testimony and Patti went through the Gospel Beads and every child made their own! It was a tremendous day of sharing, laughing and learning more about Cornerstone. Lizz got an unexpected opportunity to assess some children for the teachers. God used our team to share Jesus with EVERY CHILD today. Thank you Lord for that opportunity.
Our afternoon met us with an unexpected surprise when we worshipped with the staff at Naomi's Village. Bob and Julie Mendonsa joined us as met the staff and shared life with them. McKinley led worship as Bailey shared her testimony, then Margaret from Naomi's Village, let us in worship - AND WOW - What an amazing experience. God is at work in their lives and the entire campus at Naomi's Village.
Our afternoon was spent playing with kids, reading to them, holding them and laughing a lot. Bob and Julie got to hang out for a couple of hours and catching up with them and hearing stories of these children just made our hearts melt. It has been a great day.
Tomorrow, off to Safe House and then visiting our friends at Mwi' Hanguri - with lunch at Ubuntu!!! Please keep praying for our team!
OnMission Team!
