Church/Rural Jesus film

What a church service we had yesterday!

We woke up extremely early in the morning...aka 5am to leave at 6am to go to a bus stop to travel for about 2(+) hours to a church. Once the bus dropped us off we had a 30(+) minute hike to go to the church. It was a long morning.

One we got there I had to go to the bathroom SO BAD! So I asked Agnus where the bathroom was and she pointed to a fence of grass about 4 feet wide and 6 feet long in the middle of this very flat...very open field not too far away from the church. I thought FUN! When I got over there it was sticks over a square hole in the ground. Let me tell you...Going number 2 in an African bathroom is a little difficult AND in a skirt! But I made it!

The service had just started when we got there and it lasted for 4 and 1/2 hours! It was amazing to see all of these people worshiping our God! They truly blessed me in ways I can't even imagine yet cause God is still showing me all of what he has for me here!

I spoke at the service and used Romans 12, which is one of my favorite chapters in Romans. We also tried to sing for them but we FAILED in comparison to their amazing voices!

After the service we had lunch in a prayer hut, which was really fun because it was small and cozy! The food was really good! It is pretty simple but good nonetheless.

We then had a 45 minute walk and a 15 minute bus ride to where we would be showing the Jesus Film that night. It was another amazing worship service and then film.

It was such a blessing because a little girl named Naomi sat on my lap the whole entire time. She would not leave my side the whole entire time we were at the church. Naomi actually hit a girl who came uup and tired to take her away to leave. God knew exactly what I needed! There was a call to accept Jesus and our group went up to pray with about 30 individuals who accepted the Lord. It was such a great night!

We then went to our hostel, where we were staying at had dinner at 11pm. It was so good though!

A lot happened yesterday and this is a poor discription of it but hopefully you know God is doing great things here in the lives of the people of Rwanda!
