We met some more pastors today...to set up our visits to the bush in the next 2 weeks. Its incredible to see how passionate some of these guys are about seeing their rural communities transformed. One pastor had workn up at 3am this morning, travelled over 30km on a fairly ropey looking bike to make our 10am meeting this morning. He got up so early because he didn't want to be late!!!!
The dedication these guys show is awesome. Makes me think about my own attitude really - i struggle to wake up for a 9.30 church service back home. Its really a privelige to be spending time getting alongside these guys.
We have now made plans to spend 10 days in the next 2 weeks out in the bush, visiting various village communities, taking part in what i guess you'd call some crusades, with some basic teaching and prayer, engaging the entire communities hopefully, not just the church leadership.
These villages are crying out for more practical help as well. Basic agricultural training would make a big difference out in these rural areas!
Anyway im preaching on Sunday, possibly to about 300 people. Its a great opportunity. Please pray that it goes well
