There is a youth camp being held at Choma Secondary School this weekend. Today we went to 2 of the services. This morning we heard Bishop Hamukang'andu speak on Spiritual Growth. He encouraged the youth to obey their parents, to keep Christ their priority and to receive the grace that teaches them to say no to ungodliness. This afternoon we heard a message addressing the affects of secular music, which is definitely infiltrating this country more than in the past. We stayed a little bit afterwards to see some quiz teams compete....brought back many memories of being on the Lancaster Brethren in Christ quiz team way back!
Once again, my parents met some dear friends that they hadn't seen yet; today they were delighted to spend some time visiting with Esther Siadibbi and some of her siblings. Esther was named after my mother, and is now 17, which reminds us how many years it has been since they were frist here in Nahumba.
Please pray for Heather, a nutritionist from the states, who has been here a week. We have become very good friends; and have "hit it off" amazingly well! She has been staying in the guest house but will be leaving for Macha on Wednesday. She has not been feeling well the past 2 days. She is here with Help Mercy and has come all alone, so she didn't know a single person. Ron and Erma Herr and us have been reaching out to her, and have had great conversations with her. I will miss her when she leaves on Wednesday.
