Thank you so much (you know who you are!)

You can see the joy as they received these gifts!




the clothing and shoes were also well received. It is hard to express the needs, but these gifts really touched their hearts with the love of Jesus!

God bless you Idjwi!


Thank you for everything!











OK. I am going to try to give you a small taste of what it means to 'drive' somwhere ......






IDJWI

A few days before our arrival, there was a terrible incident. An overloaded wooden boat like the one in the picture overturned and 150 people lost their lives!



Dear Friends, I have returned from a 4 day conference + crusade in the 'bush'. It was a wonderful experience in so many ways.

The attendees were almost half and half men & women.
























We shared our hearts, celebrated the Truths of our Great God, and also enjoyed shared laughter!


Thanks to their patient teaching I now know 2 statements in Mashi! Here they are teaching me;


.......and now you see the pastors laughing at my newly acquired skill;











They were not laughing AT me, they were expressing great joy that someone would try to learn their language! (I was laughing just as much!)

At our open air crusade, we saw people come forward to make a life change and become followers of the King! That is always the highlight! That is why we are here. To spread the Good News of a great Saviour for all the world!


After the service, we were blessed by their gratitude. They gifted me with a locally made walking cane, and Both Raha & I were each given a large turkey!






 This is a picture of the kitchen that fed us. We had prepared for 200. They actually fed more like 250! And did it very well!
