Learning some local language is essential, not just to communicate but to show respect! Even when you makes mistakes- because you will! https://t.co/XCyqxicEDA
When traveling, be careful not to judge things the way you would at home! There’s often an important story behind what you see! https://t.co/bbbBnooMKz
If you’re gonna serve in the name of Jesus, don’t let a little dirt keep you from ministry to others! (Learn from my mistakes!) https://t.co/cSWAUTwZyI
So cool to see just over 400 children in groups with 44 leaders! Fun and games, music and drama, and small groups sharing the good news! 5 hour program, with eternal consequences!
This morning we take a 7 hour bus ride thru the desert, Red Sea to the Nile! This is the community where the leaders live and will do the kids outreach! Can’t wait! Thank you for praying!
Today has been the highlight of the trip! Several of the participants realizing that they know ‘about Him’ but until today had not placed faith in Him! Exciting stuff! Then ministry to all of them in their difficulty, finding strength and victory in God! I love what I get to do!
One of the churches that sent leaders to be trained, began as an outreach to children in that village over 10 years ago! The guys that started that outreach are now the leadership team for this entire training! What an encouragement to everyone here!
First day of training in Egypt! Such a great group of teachers! Where also preparing them to lead an all day kids outreach in their own community this weekend! Thanks for praying!
Guess the last tweet didn’t send. We finished well! Leaders are back home ready to apply what they learned. I arrived home this afternoon! Thanks for praying for us!
Joyful day #4! Laughing, learning, praying, praising, sharing, growing. I love the opportunity to see leaders equipped and encouraged to see kids transformed! Thank you for your support and encouragement. PL
Thank you for praying! It’s been a hard day. We had a participant suddenly die during a break yesterday. He was 47 and his 19 year old daughter was also attending. God is using this to really focus all of us on what’s most important in life and eternity.
Arrived yesterday in Cairo and had a great time with some of our partners serving here. Today we’re heading north toward Alexandria to begin trading tomorrow! Thank you for praying!
