I am not sure if we can fully understand the importance of this ministry.
We usually go to remote areas, because there are many services available in the cities, but the greatest needs are in the rural areas. We have had between 80 - 200 leaders attend. Some of them travel through high-risk places to come. These leaders do not have the resources to attend much-needed courses, encouragement, or networking.
Here is a photo to help you understand their point of view.....
Our seminar was scheduled from Monday until Saturday. This man came on Wednesday. Our translator asked him why he came so late.
Here is his response;
Please forgive me! On Monday my Son died, Tuesday was the funeral, today I am here! ðŸ˜
(the truth of his statement is revealed in his face!)
Now you understand.
