Listening Ears....

I wanted to send a VERY SPECIAL Thank you to Kevin and Maryanne and their 25 confirmands!! I went to share the story of Mwika and Maring'a Juu with this wonderful group. There were 25 students who are getting ready to receive their confirmation and I was IMPRESSED with how wonderful they listened and the great questions they asked. I am happy you enjoyed the African food that I brought to give you a taste of the country. It was a pleasure for me to see their eyes watching the photographs and videos and listening to how God places special calls in each of our hearts. I remember when I was that age, I didn't really know what a "call" was and even if there was a call I would have expected it to come on the old black telephone that was hanging on the kitchen wall. I wish I would have had someone tell me "their own story" so that the seed would have been planted early in my lifetime. I guess one never knows who you touch with your story, but hopefully, I was able to share the struggles of what the people in Mwika deal with on a daily basis and that these wonderful young confirmands are blessed in a great way.

Thank you for letting me join your group, to partner with you and help you understand how God works in even just the simplest of ways!!

PS. For the young man who asked what the poorest country in the world was.....the answer to that is Zimbabwe!!

Until next time ~

Cheers!
