Our time has been so jam packed we have not had time to breath. Last night we got back from two places at 12:30 at night and today we have a four and 1/2 hour drive ahead of us.
But today we got warm water to shower with, tea, and a short chance to use the internet!!!
The day we arrived in Tanzania they commissioned the Jesus film in the native language of the people. We have been able to show the Jesus film to these people in remote areas in their own mother tongue for the very first time. I wish you could see the faces of the people and their response to the message. Their eyes are wide open as they hear this beautiful word of God and it sinks deep into their hearts. It is like the difference from listening to the Word on the radio verses meeting the Word in person.
Last night both showings had over 200 people and they were in the same area. I suppose 50 people in the one showing and possibly 75 in the other showing raised their hand stating that they wanted their sins to be forgiven and their lives to be Christ's.
We now will be traveling for 6 days and it will be an intense time emotionally and physically, but every place we go we will be showing this good news to people in their language for the first time.
Everyone's health has been great, thanks for your prayers. The food
has been great and we have eaten like kings and .
We have been greeted by all of our friends and we have been overwhelmed with the love the people have been showering upon us.
We have not had time to read e-mail, but just barely time to send this message.
MAY THE LORD BE PRAISED FOR THE AWESOME WORK THAT HE HAS PREPARED FOR US TO DO AND ALLOWED US TO BE APART OF!
