Kwaheri Tanzania

Jambo! I am officially out of Tanzania now, and am back at Mayfield in Kenya. My last week went very well. On saturday at Compassion Day, I led the Bible story for the older kids, aged 12-17. I told the story of Joseph, and how he forgave his brothers after what they did to him. I related the story to how God forgives us, even though we don't deserve it. After, I gave an invitation to accept Christ for those who wanted to know for sure that if they were to die this day, that they would go to heaven to be with Christ. That was really amazing, as about 30 kids wanted to make sure that they would go to heaven. I really don't know how many became Christians for the first time, as I know that most of them were already Christians, but they wanted assurance that they would go to heaven. Praise God for that! I met my uncle Col on Sunday. I hadn't seen him for almost 3 years, so it was so cool how it worked out to see him. He took me to Moshi to show me the school he works at and his house. On the way there, the car ran out of gas. The middle of Africa isn't the place you want to run out of gas! Luckily we were not far from a gas station, so that worked out. I come home on Thursday, after a 10 hour layover in London. I'm hoping that I will be able to go into downtown London and see some of the sites. I am sad that my mission stay in Africa is over, but I am looking forward to seeing all family and friends again! Thank you so much for all of your prayers, as I believe that it was only the grace of God that got me through some situations. I definitely have a strong love for Africa, and can see myself coming back! Please pray that I will have a safe trip. See you soon!
