A glance into the journey

Geoff | July 26th, 2009 | Category: News,Zambia

As we finish the conference in Choma, it is a season of celebration and reflection. The people here are a beautiful, passionate, regal people. Their culture is rich, and we have seen God moving here in a powerful way. Though a leadership conference, we still were blessed with new sisters in the Kingdom. Salvations are amazing – but even believers have strongholds in their lives, and this conference has seen those strongholds torn down and lives relenting to the call in the way God calls us; COMPLETELY! There are literally hundreds of images, but these are a few to at least give you some sense of our endeavor.
Please pray – our conference may be through, but there is still work to do in Lusaka on Tuesday and Wednesday. Tonight and tomorrow will be re-grouping and traveling, this time over road in Big Blue, our truck.
Pray for continued safety and health, and continue to pray for Andrew, our driver that we want to see in the Kingdom! Blessings to you all!

    Hi Sheila and Team,
    You’re a world away, and yet our God’s love is the same in Africa as it is in the USA. Thanks for sharing your trip with us. We have been praying daily, and will continue to do so until you are home safe and sound. I can’t wait to see more pictures. Please tell everyone we send our love all the way from California. Love you bunches, Kathy & Greg

    So thankful for your abilities to serve those at the leadership conference. I’m sure that the blessings flowed both ways. The photos are great, Big Blue looks interesting to say the least. We continue to pray for you all,for Andrew and for all those whom you come in contact, for you safety and for good health. We had a moving sermon from Andy yesterday morning. A mighty challenge to those that will hear. Spontaneous applause at one point. Can’t wait to hear about the next leg of your journey and about the little ones in the orphanages. My 92 year old father-in-law asks me about your trip and is interested to hear your reports too. Blessings to you all as we look forward to your return. april
