Well, update from Sunday first. The drama team was able to present the gospel at a church that was just starting up in a part Yaounde. God was bringing people in even when the service was already started. The students did a great job in doing the drama. Liz lead in with explaining what would be happening in the drama to elmanate any confusion and shared scripture to help explain it better fro the audience. I have a video of the production and will post it later tonight or in the morning for your time. So check back with the blog to see the video and some pics as well. i can't do it until the late evening because of the busy of the day so me typing is no biggie. We came back from check around 1:30PM church still wasn't over they were still planning on having communion, so church wasn't going to be over for another 2 hours. Church is some what different than the states, in some ways time is not an issue in some ways.
So Liz made homemade humus with bread and veggies for lunch and then we went off to dance class to teach about twenty students. Liz and her friend from Rwanda Phi-Jacke, who has become a dear brother, he is going to seminary to be a pastor and to go back to Rwanda and to preach the Gospel. PhiJack is a dance teacher who is teaching the classes to help pay for school. He is very good and gifted in dance. The students enjoy the class and PhiJack as well. I have been very blessed to meet PhiJack and blessed to call him my brother in Christ. It is hard to think that these people that i come to know and even love that tomorrow that i will have to say "see you later". i have been truly blessed by this place and i am going to miss it.
Well, after dance class we were walking home, we found out they were preparing to shut down down certain roads in Yaounde because the President of Yaounde is traveling through, so needless to say we had to move our plans for traveling to Antwon and Lucy's house a little earlier to miss the road closers. which we did make it. During our time there we also were able to catch the Cameroon soccer team play on the TV. Watching the game was an experience, because when the Cameroon team scored the city came alive with screaming and rejoicing. The city loves there team, and supports them very passionately the missionaries are told to avoid going out downtown when they play because it can be violent depending on what happens, but last night the Lions hopes for the Nations Cup is still alive since they won 3-2 over Zambia. That was my evening i didn't sleep well last night but God has been very gracious to me in giving me strength. i will be also recording a message from Liz to the church tonight. Liz is very excited about sending a message to the church. i am going to have to sign off now but i will be leaving late tomorrow night my flight leaves at 11:55PM but will have to be at the airport around 9PM that evening. Please pray that there will be no hick ups with customs. Also, please pray that God will give me safety as well in Brussels because i may have an opportunity to go into Brussels because some people that are leaving with me at the same time, have some friends who live their and may give us a tour to some important places. So we will see what happens. i will give you an update tonight and tomorrow as well, but once i leave i will not be able to do anything until Dulles, Washington D.C. I love you guys and look forward to seeing you in a couple days. Talk to you later!
